Protecting Your Rental Unit While Traveling

Suitcases by the door

According to Gallop, more than 100 million Americans will go on vacation annually. 

While we’re out exploring new places and trying different foods, the personal belongings we leave at home may be at risk. Don’t let worrying about these items cause additional stress! Give yourself some peace of mind with renters insurance policy coverage. In addition to renters coverage, there are steps you can take to further protect and prevent your rental from peril including theft. 

Double check doors and windows

Although it may seem like a basic task, double checking your doors and windows before traveling can help keep your personal belongings secure from burglars actively searching for unlocked doors. Windows are already a weakly protected point of access to your home. By double checking your locks before leaving, you are adding an extra layer of security. 

Create light illusions

When we’re excited about traveling, it can be easy to forget about the things we’re leaving behind. Not only does a routinely dark house have the potential to attract burglars in search of empty residences, it allows thieves to go undetected in darkness. One way to protect these items is by simply leaving a few lights on. Investing in outdoor lighting, including motion-sensitive or timed-lighting devices may also be a good option. Checking with your landlord on what option(s) would best suit your rental unit and personal needs would be a good starting point.

Hold off on posting that selfie

What better way to advertise that you’re not home than by posting pictures of you on the beach? An easy way to avoid this is by waiting to post any information relating to your vacation on social media until after you return to home. So, before you decide to post that poolside picture, think about who may see your location.

While traveling can be an exciting time, always remember to plan accordingly and protect the rental unit you are leaving behind. With renter insurance from BluCanopy, you can further protect your personal belongings from damage or loss that may occur while you are away. Getting a quote is simple and fast.
