If you intend to travel and leave your home unoccupied this festive season, you should ensure that your home is safe and its contents are insured.

LOCK WINDOWS AND DOORS

Double-check that all doors and windows are securely shut and locked.

INSTALL OUTSIDE LIGHTING

Install motion-activated outside lighting if at all feasible in the weeks leading up to your departure. In certain cases, this may discourage criminals from attempting a break-in.

UNPLUG UNNECESSARY ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT

Be cautious to prevent electrical surges and prevent fires by unplugging unused electronics and appliances.

SAFELY STORE VALUEBLES

The safest course of action would be to not leave any jewellery or valuables in your home while you are gone. Nonetheless, if you have no option, be sure to securely store your valuables.

TAKE YOUR CAR FOR A THOROUGH INSPECTION

Get a roadworthy inspection done on your vehicle and check the tires and brakes. Check your windows for damage and get it repaired. Make sure your windshield wipers are in fine operating condition as well. You should also check the condition of the spare wheel and have the equipment to fix a flat tire while you're on the road.
