Tip of the Week: Using Your Vehicle as a Storage Container

Most of us keep a lot of high valued items in our garages, such as tools, bicycles, and other expensive sporting equipment. Additionally, most garages also have a door to the main house. As such, it is very important to keep our garage doors closed and secured anytime it is left unattended. This includes at night. Thieves tend to be quick, silent, and mostly, daring! It only takes a second for someone to walk up to your garage, take what they like, then be off into the dark. And unlike fishermen, thieves do not keep their favorite spots a secret. They will tell others, and it will draw attention to an area. Please….help to prevent crime in your area by keeping your garages closed and secured at night and whenever left unattended.
