Video Doorbell: The Ultimate Solution to Package Theft Introduction Package theft is a growing concern for many homeowners, especially during the holiday season. With the rise of online shopping, more and more packages are being delivered to homes, making them an easy target for thieves. However, there is a solution that can help deter package thieves - the video doorbell. In this article, we will explore how a video doorbell can help prevent package theft, and share a real-life story of how it worked for one homeowner. The Rise of Package Theft With the increase in online shopping, package theft has become a common occurrence. According to a survey conducted by Shorr Packaging, 31% of Americans have experienced package theft, and 53% know someone who has. This is a significant increase from just a few years ago, and it's not just happening in urban areas. Package theft is happening in suburban and rural areas as well. How a Video Doorbell Can Help A video doorbell is a smart home device that allows homeowners to see and speak to visitors at their front door, even when they're not home. It also has a motion sensor that can detect when someone is approaching the door. When the motion sensor is triggered, the video doorbell sends an alert to the homeowner's smartphone, allowing them to see who is at the door and speak to them if necessary. Real-Life Story One homeowner in a suburban area had been experiencing package theft for several months. They tried various solutions, such as having packages delivered to their workplace or a neighbor's house, but nothing seemed to work. Finally, they decided to install a video doorbell. Within a week of installing the video doorbell, they received an alert on their smartphone that someone was at their front door. When they checked the video feed, they saw a stranger trying to take a package that had just been delivered. The homeowner spoke to the stranger through the video doorbell, and the thief quickly left without taking the package. Since then, the homeowner has not experienced any more package theft. Conclusion A video doorbell is a simple and effective solution to package theft. It allows homeowners to monitor their front door and deter thieves from stealing packages. With the rise of online shopping, package theft is becoming more common, but with a video doorbell, homeowners can have peace of mind knowing that their packages are safe.
