While we have some hawk-eyed neighbors that always keep an eye out, porch pirates are sneaky, especially this time of year.   Who else is on the Neighbors app, and is always so outraged by the package thieves caught on video in your area?!   It always makes me feel so violated that that is going on in our city!  Well here’s –  The Lockbox from CleverMade to save the day!  It’s a great solution to out smart them, and put your mind at ease while you’re online shopping this year.  It’s an all weather proof, lockbox, with a code, that’s anchored to the ground that only the carriers can get into!  JB put it together in under 30 minutes, and then anchored it to our side porch.  Our UPS guy was confused at first: like, what?!  Couldn’t they just take the box with them?  But it’s securely anchored to our concrete!  It’s also very easy to contact carriers; they give you the steps to contact FedEx, UPS, USPS or Prime via their website.  The drivers will have the code and it’s super easy for them to use!  I particularly love it because occasionally I’ll have to rush home to sign for a package – but with the Lockbox I can waive that right and they’ll place it securely in the Lockbox!  There are some things they can’t do that for – Prescription drugs and Alcohol, but for what I typically need it works great!  While our neighbors are wonderful and always grab our mail when we’re out of town, there’s been times when we are out of town, and they are too – this is such a great solution for us.  I won’t feel nervous about porch pirates while we’re out of town, or have to send someone over to pick up our packages.  Lastly it’s great for leaving something for friends or family, or having them leave something for us – while we’re out of town, or out for the day – and they don’t have to come in our house and get clobbered by our dog (:  We’re big fans over here!
