  • Bring packages inside as soon as they arrive
  • Reschedule a delivery if they know they won’t be home
  • Ask neighbors to grab a package to hold until home

  • Use a company that can provide a tracking number

Remember to report any suspicious person and/or act immediately to the Gloucester Township Police Department by calling 911 for an emergency and (856) 228-4500 for a non-emergency.
