New Castle County Police issue a crime alert: Theft of Packages

October 9, 2015

The New Castle County Police would like to warn residents about the risk of having packages delivered to an empty home.

The holiday season is right around the corner and many residents have started online shopping to beat the shopping mall rush.  Unfortunately, “Package Pirates” are on the look-out for an easy grab.

Last year, the New Castle County Police received a total of 98 complaints regarding the theft of packages. Nearly half of the reports were received in the months of November and December.  Recently, there have been reports of suspicious vehicles following delivery trucks.  We have a few tips to keep “Package Pirates” and Grinches from taking your packages.

 

  • Opt to require a signature for all package deliveries.  Residents should review the delivery options at “check-out” for there is an option to leave specific delivery instructions for the delivery company on where to leave packages.
  • Consider sending the package to a family member or trusted neighbor who is home during the day to accept the delivery.
      
  • Use the “pick-up at store” option for merchandise or  pick-up packages at a local UPS or FedEx location.
