The Orrville Police Department is pleased to offer a complimentary Vacation Check Program, specifically designed to bring peace of mind to our residents while they are away from home for extended periods. This valuable service entails our police officers conducting periodic inspections of the exterior of your residence to ensure its security and safety.
During these inspections, officers will thoroughly check for any unlocked or damaged windows and doors, investigate for signs of forced entry or unusual activity, and confirm the presence of any vehicles left on the property. The information you provide to us will enable prompt communication with you or your designated emergency contact if any issues arise that require attention.
By participating in the Vacation Check Program, you can enjoy your time away knowing that there will be an increased police presence around your home, which acts as a deterrent to potential criminal activity. This initiative serves as a public service aimed at protecting the property of our citizens while also allowing for timely notifications should any concerns come to light.
If you would like to take advantage of this program, please reach out to us via email at opdrecords@orrvilleoh.gov. Alternatively, you can call and leave us a voicemail at (330)684-5058. To ensure we have all the necessary details for a thorough check, we kindly ask that you provide the following information:
– Your full name, residential address, and home phone number
– A cellular number where you can be reached while traveling, if applicable
– Which lights will you leave on?
– Are these lights on a timer? Please specify the on/off times
– Will you be leaving a key with anyone? If yes, please provide their name, address, and phone number
– Will there be any vehicles parked in your driveway? If so, please provide their make, model, color, and license plate numbers
– Departure and return dates
– Is there any additional information you would like our officers to be aware of regarding your property?
Thank you for taking the time to provide this information. We look forward to helping you keep your home safe while you enjoy your time away.
