Stolen Parcels across Preston - Crime Prevention Message

Good afternoon,

In the last few weeks, we’ve seen an increase in reports of parcels being stolen after being left outside homes across Preston.

We wanted to let you know that we are investigating these reports and we wanted to provide you with some small ways that you can help to protect your deliveries:

📦Track your parcel and try to be in when it arrives
📦Ask a trusted neighbour to take it in
📦Choose a safe place or delivery locker if available
📦Avoid deliveries being left in plain view
📦Consider doorbell cameras or security lighting

If you see anything suspicious in your area, report it to us on 101 or online here – Report a Crime or Incident - Lancashire Constabulary - Report Online
