You can compare prices, read reviews, and find exactly what you\u2019re looking for. Let\u2019s not forget that rush of excitement when your package is delivered.<\/p>\n<p>Packages are typically delivered to a lobby area near the entrance to the building, or sometimes right outside your apartment door. But what if you discover that your package is missing? When you tracked your package delivery with your provided tracking number, it said it was placed at your door \u2013 but it isn\u2019t there. You might be a victim of package theft, your delivery stolen away by a \u201cporch pirate\u201d or package thieves.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Apartment Buildings Are Especially Vulnerable<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Unfortunately, package theft is common, especially as we near the holiday season. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parcelpending.com\/en-gb\/blog\/our-foi-reveals-uk-is-in-midst-of-a-parcel-theft-crimewave\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FOI request to police forces across the UK<\/a> found that reported parcel theft has increased by almost 300% since 2019 with the highest numbers reported in November and December.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s all too tempting for \u201cporch pirates\u201d or package thieves to swipe your purchases from your doorstep. Nothing is stopping them.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Package Theft by The Numbers<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s check out some statistics on parcel theft.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>35% are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parcelpending.com\/en-gb\/resources\/managing-growing-parcel-deliveries-within-local-communities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">more worried about parcel theft<\/a> now than 3 years ago<\/li>\n<li>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parcelpending.com\/en-gb\/blog\/quadient-foi-reveals-threat-of-porch-pirates-over-black-friday-and-christmas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">average reported value of a stolen parcel<\/a> is over \u00a3115 (rising to over \u00a31100 in City of London)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.citizensadvice.org.uk\/about-us\/about-us1\/media\/press-releases\/citizens-advice-sounds-the-alarm-on-parcel-delivery-market-as-ten-people-have-parcels-lost-or-stolen-per-minute\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">5.5 million parcels<\/a> are stolen each year<\/li>\n<li>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parcelpending.com\/en-gb\/blog\/quadient-foi-reveals-threat-of-porch-pirates-over-black-friday-and-christmas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">most common time for thefts to occur<\/a> is between 9am and 5pm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As you can see, package security is a significant problem. If you are the property manager of an apartment building, you\u2019ve likely dealt with missing package inquiries from your residents or even reports of a porch pirate in your area. You might be feeling helpless as to what you can do. Don\u2019t worry; we have solutions for you to help prevent package theft.<\/p>\n<h3><b>How to Seek Package Theft Remediation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>If a resident has noticed a missing package, here are some steps they can take to determine if it was stolen:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Call residential services to find out if the package was delivered elsewhere.<\/li>\n<li>Confirm that the correct address was used during the purchase.<\/li>\n<li>Check any available surveillance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once it\u2019s been confirmed that the lost package was likely due to theft:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>File a claim with the police.<\/li>\n<li>Report the stolen package to the seller and ask for redelivery.<\/li>\n<li>If the seller doesn\u2019t help, contact the carrier for assistance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While these steps can remedy theft, theft prevention is a much better alternative. Fortunately, there are prevention measures available. Read on for some tips on how to prevent package theft.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Package Theft Prevention Tips<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Porch pirates are prevalent because there is little security standing in their way. Thus, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parcelpending.com\/en-gb\/blog\/how-to-make-your-apartment-block-safer-with-secure-mail-and-parcel-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">secure package delivery<\/a> system revolves around increasing security for the best forms of package theft prevention.<\/p>\n<h4><b>#1 Intercept Packages in Person\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>One way to ensure that packages won\u2019t be stolen is to intercept them in person. Recommend that residents stay home during their scheduled delivery time. If this isn\u2019t possible, they can ship packages to a workplace or a family member\u2019s home.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you are the owner or operator of an apartment community, this solution might leave residents feeling like they have to fend for themselves. Since shipping to a home address is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shorr.com\/packaging-news\/2017-05\/2017-package-theft-report-porch-pirates-purchase-habits-and-privacy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">preferable to 92% of people<\/a>, you want to make this a viable option.<\/p>\n<h4><b>#2 Install Video Surveillance<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>Installing security cameras, like ones attached to a doorbell, might be your best solution when trying to incorporate more package theft protection. A lot of security camera options, nowadays, are considered smart doorbells, where they even connect to a mobile app! In addition to these cameras, we\u2019ve all seen those signs that say, \u201cSmile, You\u2019re on Camera!\u201d There\u2019s something about knowing you\u2019re being watched through a security camera that changes a thief\u2019s behaviour.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of porch pirates, it may be enough to stop thieves in their tracks from stealing. No one likes being caught red-handed.<\/p>\n<p>As a landlord, you can invest in apartment-wide video surveillance. Make sure these surveillance cameras are made known to potential thieves. If stealing takes place, you can catch the person responsible. In turn, your residents will appreciate the increased security measures.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, security cameras do not deter all criminals who simply hide their faces and grab any opportunity to access packages \u2013 tailgating, or even posing as couriers themselves.<\/p>\n<h4><b>#3 The Best Solution: Smart Lockers<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>The most comprehensive solution to preventing package theft is installing smart lockers (also known as an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parcelpending.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">electronic locker<\/a>). Smart lockers secure packages until your residents are ready to pick them up. The carrier simply places packages in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parcelpending.com\/en-gb\/markets\/residential-parcel-lockers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">apartment package lockers<\/a>, and then notifications are automatically sent to the residents\u2019 phone. They can rest easy knowing their package is safe and sound thanks to this smart home security solution.<\/p>\n<p>Since most package theft occurs when residents aren\u2019t home, smart lockers (or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parcelpending.com\/en-gb\/about-parcel-lockers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">parcel lockers) <\/a>eliminate any vulnerability. According to the Shorr study, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shorr.com\/packaging-news\/2017-05\/2017-package-theft-report-porch-pirates-purchase-habits-and-privacy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">71% of people<\/a> said they\u2019d be comfortable having their packages delivered to secure lockers, rather than their doorstep.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Parcel Pending Smart Lockers: A One-Time Investment<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Parcel Pending provides a cost-effective, theft prevention solution. Our smart lockers are an investment that will pay out in dividends. Not only do they protect against theft, but they also automate the sorting and delivery process.
