From setting timers on inside lights to give the impression that you are in the house turning the lights on and off, to securing cash in a safe, there are many ways to protect a home when out of town.

Using Timers

We are going to start with setting timers for interior lights. This is something that has become easy to do. You can make sure that the lights go on and off at a certain time or you can even opt to control them using your smartphone to change up the times. 

Securing Cash

Securing cash and other important items in a safe is important when you are home and when you are not home. You can put the safe somewhere that is not noticeable. Keeping cash out of sight is important – a safe can ensure you stay organized and know where it is, too.

Privacy

We do not recommend alerting social media when you are not going to be home. If someone was paying attention, they might keep track of when you are not going to be home for an extended period of time. Perhaps consider not posting your whereabouts or waiting until the vacation or travel has otherwise been completed.
