Tip of the week: Preventing Mail Theft

Stevenson Ranch has been experiencing several incidents regarding mail box tampering and mail theft.  Here are some tips to help avoid being a victim:

1.    Check your mail DAILY, and as close to the time of delivery as possible.

2.    NEVER leave your mail in your mailbox overnight.

3.    Invest in a secured mailbox which requires a key for access.

4.    Avoid using your mailbox for outgoing mail.  Drop off outgoing mail at the post office or use a secured street-side mailbox.

5.    If you are going to be away, have a friend or family member collect your mail DAILY for you.

Take care.
