The RCMP is encouraging home and business owners to take a few extra steps to protect your valuables.

Police​ regularly​ seize stolen property and aim to return it to its rightful owners.​

This challenge is easier met when a few proactive steps have been taken by property owners. Here are a few things​ you can do to​ help recover your valuables in the event they are​ ever stolen:​

Mark it – Engrave equipment/valuables​ in a discreet location.

Document it – Photograph equipment/valuables and record serial numbers and engraving details.

Store it – Keep​ all documentation in a safe place.

Taking these simple​ steps could significantly increase your chances of having stolen items returned if they are ever​ recovered by police.
