Professional Packing Store in Santa Fe, NM Advises the Community to Protect Their Shipped Packages from Theft

Santa Fe, NM – In today’s society, just about anything can be delivered. From groceries to pet subscription boxes, customers want products delivered as quickly and conveniently as possible right to their front door. However, with this comes a whole new set of risks such as the order being filled incorrectly, the product not being what was expected, or the most frustrating of all: package theft. It’s estimated that 23 million Americans have experienced having a package stolen. It has become such a prevalent issue that members of the Retail Shipping Associates (RSA) are working to create a system to better protect delivered packages by having them delivered to designated “safe places” such as local shipping stores. Association President, Brandon Gale, says, “We offer a high-touch, high-service network. That’s what we do for a living.” In order to better protect against these “porch pirates”, a professional packing store in Santa Fe, NM has also provided safeguards to help their local community.

General recommendations to prevent package theft can include installing home security devices, having packages sent to the customer’s workplace, or creating a community system to have a friend or neighbor receive the package when it is delivered. While these are great options, they are not the most effective for everybody and may not discourage a more experienced thief. For a secure and convenient way to ensure packages are safely delivered, private mailbox rentals in Santa Fe are a great option. For customers that travel often or are unable to frequently check their mailboxes, a digital mailbox that can be accessed from any smartphone, tablet or desktop computer may be an option to consider as well.

Customers that have used these services often recommend the private and digital mailbox rentals. They provide a local street address for mail to be sent to that is accessible 24 hours in a well-lit and secure environment. In addition to protecting mail and packages from “porch pirates”, they can be a convenient service for business owners that are conducting most of their business from home.
