- Unprotected packages may also be damaged by weather

- 26 million Americans had a package stolen from their porch in 2017 – and that was just during the holidays! Source: https://www.insurancequotes.com/press-room/porch-pirates-stolen-holiday-packages-2017
- Suggestions for fending off Porch Pirates include…
- Have shipments delivered to work if allowed
- Ask friends or neighbors usually at home during the day to receiving your packages
- Require a signature for packages ordered and delivered to home – assuming someone will be there to receive them
- Use alternative pickup and delivery options available from FedEx, the U.S. Postal Service and UPS
- Install home security devices including surveillance cameras
- None of the options above are as simple and convenient for homeowners as installing an easy to use, out-of-sight, secure package delivery box at home

- It’s super simple to use – for homeowners and parcel carriers!
- Homeowner sets access code on resettable combination lock
- When ordering something online the homeowner simply adds the access code into the shipping address …
- First & Last Name
- Address Line #1: House # and Street Name
- Line #2: Input XXXX to open Package Protector™ on porch
- City, State & Zip Code
- Carrier deposits package in Package Protector™ - closes and locks the door - and moves on to his or her next delivery
- Access code can be changed by homeowner at any time
- Homeowner can allow anyone to use Package Protector™ simply by providing them the current access code


- Choosing a location for Package Protector™ that is convenient for parcel carriers is very important
- Packages are typically delivered to the front door, so siting Package Protector™ in the front porch area is optimal
- If the porch is not ideal due to the home floorplan, then close to the porch in a covered, protected location is the next best alternative
- Installing the Package Protector™ PRO model into an unconditioned space such as a garage or storage area is recommended
- Carriers will happily use Package Protector™ if it is located in a convenient location that doesn’t add time to their delivery process



- If recessing Package Protector™ PRO won’t work with your home design – the free-standing, pedestal mounted Package Protector™ PORT model is right for you!
- Package Protector™ PORT mounted on a pedestal can be anchored to an existing concrete porch, driveway or any existing concrete pad at least 4” thick.
- If no existing concrete pad is available where you want to place your Package Protector™ PORT you can pour a 12”x 18” x 24” D concrete pier to place it anywhere.
- When selecting your site, just remember that parcel carriers will be happy to use either Package Protector™ model as long as it’s in a convenient location that doesn’t add time to their delivery process.
