How To Easily Protect Your Property While Traveling



This is a sponsored post.  All opinions are my own.

Do you bring half your household with you when you travel?  Well that's a exaggeration, unless you are traveling with an infant, then yes, you have a lot to pack.  I am sure, though, like us, you have lots of valuables with you when you travel.   Your phones and laptops are probably the first things you pack.  Then there is your tablet because you will want to read or play games on the plane or at the beach.   How about your a camera?  You will want to take pictures of the fun times you are having.

You might think that your valuables are safe in your carry-on that you make sure will never leave your side, but you never know what could happen.  My mom was once suckered into watching a stranger's bag at the airport.  She lost focus of her own bag when she became focused on the stranger's bag.  Her bag, with some of her most favorite and expensive jewelry, was then easily stolen from her.

How about the things you leave in your home, unattended, when you are traveling or at your vacation home?  We are snowbirds and are always leaving one home empty for months at a time.  It's not impossible, but makes more sense for us to have a television in each house so that we don't have to lug a huge 55 inch TV back and forth from house to house.  And our televisions are not the only items we leave behind that would be expensive for us to replace.  Of course, we leave someone in charge to "mind" our home when we are away but they are not in our home 24/7 so our homes are more vulnerable to break ins.

Maybe your property is not stolen.  Maybe you lost it.  How many times have you asked someone to call your phone so that the ringing will lead you to it?  But what happens if you leave your phone out of earshot like the young visitor from Japan that we had staying with us not too long ago.   She didn't have a choice but to buy a new phone to keep in touch with her family when she lost hers.  If there was a way for a Good Samaritan to get her phone back to her, she could have saved the huge expense of buying one.

So how can you easily protect your belongings?  Get yourself the MyPropertyID kit like we did. 

 

What is MyPropertyID and how does it work?  MyPropertyID gives you access to a private database where you record the make, model and serial number of your valuables.  This information is linked to an ID number located on the ID tag that you have attached to your valuable.  When your property is lost or stolen the Good Samaritan or the police can contact MyPropertyID by using the information on the tag.  MyPropertyID can then notify you that your property has been found without revealing any of your personal information to anyone.  There is no cost for storing your information here.


What is included in the MyPropertyID kit?  Besides for the private database, you will receive tamper resistant id tags for your property, warning signs to place in your home, car, etc. and a system for recovering lost or stolen items.


What do we love about the MyPropertyID kit?  First of all, I like organization in our lives and having a record of the serial numbers of our valuables in one easily accessible place makes me feel very comfortable and secure.  Secondly, because we are snowbirds, and frequent travelers, we are constantly leaving our valuables in an empty house.  Now those valuables are safely labeled and recorded which gives us peace of mind whenever we leave the house. Third, we own a travel trailer and go on lots of road trips with it.   Now that we have the My Property ID kit and have put up the warning signs on our trailer and car, we feel a lot less stressed about leaving our valuables in them.  In fact, we feel confident that the warning signs will make someone think twice about entering our vehicles.


How can you get your MyPropertyID kit?  It's as easy as clicking on this link - MyPropertyID. Make sure to put in the code, 10%OFF2023, for 10% off the price of any kit.
