Green Bay Police want to remind everyone about the free Serial Number Awareness Program.

With the holiday season well on its way, there is a good possibility that many residences will have new items added. We at the Green Bay Police Department hope that you are never a victim of crime. Unfortunately, thefts and burglaries do occur, but there is something you can do to increase the odds of getting your property back. We recommend that you record serial numbers and descriptions of your valuables. In order to make this easier for you, we have a website where you can store this information. You can create your own password protected account. The information will be stored on a secure server in case it is ever necessary for you to retrieve or update. Pictures of your items can also be uploaded if there is not a unique identification number.

A large portion of stolen property is resold. Second hand stores record the property they take in and document this on a property reporting website. Without identifiable information, like a serial number, stolen property often goes undetected and is unlikely to be returned.

Insurance companies recommend the practice of recording the serial numbers of your valuables, especially electronics. Please share this information with your family, friends and neighbors. Encourage them to participate. Even if you decide not to use this website, at least consider recording information about your belongings for your own records. You can download a property catalog form for free from this website. Whatever method you choose, please record your serial numbers!

Access our secure website and record your valuables at snap.gbpolice.org
You may also download and print additional blank copies of the personal property catalog from the website.
