đź“« If you plan to be out of town for a period of time it is a good idea to ensure that your mail box does not become over-full, because this can be a clue to would-be burglars that there is no-one home.

đź“« You can ask a friend or neighbour that you trust, to drop by and collect mail from your mailbox regularly while you are away, and give it to you when you return. Alternatively, you could find a house-sitter to live at your home while you are away, who can also bring in your mail and put it aside for when you return.
