Porch Pirates, Are They Real?

November 24, 2021/in Recent Posts /by webdev

Porch Pirates

Keep Your Packages Safe
Pirates have always been something that appear in story books. But lately piracy has become
very real for a lot of online holiday shoppers. The name Porch Pirates sounds cute and maybe
you’re thinking of all the kiddies showing up on your doorstep at Halloween, but these are not
your neighbor’s children in costume. Porch Pirates steal packages from door steps and porches.
Sometimes these thieves will even follow a delivery vehicle and scoop the package right after
it’s been dropped on the doorstep.

As of Sept of this year, nearly one quarter of online shoppers have felt the sting of porch piracy.
The average value a stolen package is about $113.

Some shoppers that have fallen victim to Porch Piracy before have taken it upon themselves to
fight back. People are putting out boxes full of glitter, dog poo or the cat litter to “be taken.”
While we admire people’s creativity why even give thieves a chance?

Between 2010 to 2017, there was a 581% rise in reports of packages stolen off doorsteps. With
porch piracy on the rise, we’d like to offer a solution for keeping your packages safe.
Our office is insured to receive your online orders and we offer this service free of charge to
everyone on our community. It’s our way of helping you have a happy holiday season. For other Self Storage ideas and happenings check out our Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/lacombestoragecenter/

How Do You Use This Free Service?
Step 1
When you are online shopping use our office address as the shipping address for your package:
Lacombe Storage: 4014 52 Avenue, Lacombe, AB T4L 2J7

Step 2
Call our office and let us know your name, your phone number and when the package is
expected.
Lacombe: 403-782-1455

Step 3
When the package arrives, our office will text you a pic of the package, text back an day and
time when you can pick it up.
Need to keep the package away from prying eyes? No problem, we can hold the package until
you need it. Just let us know how long you need us to hold it. (Please keep in mind our holiday
hours).

Retail stores offer all kinds of Christmas storage devices that work wonderfully, but these also come with a hefty price. At the Storage Group we have dedicated some of our blogs to repurposing other items to get the same effect without the expense. Here are some of my decoration storage hacks.

Our Little Elf on a Shelf

December 1, 2015/in Uncategorized /by webdev

We are thrilled to begin a new adventure this year!  Sue Sage, manager of Lacombe Storage Center, embarked on a journey with her ‘Elf on a Shelf’ last December. Here’s her story:

This past December I wanted to find a way to incorporate a fun aspect of reaching people with Lacombe Storage Center’s Facebook page. I have learned that not all social media posts from a business need to be about business. People enjoy pictures, humorous posts and community updates. in their news feeds too! Elf on the shelf was the idea I kept coming back to. To me, Elf brings to mind, the young hearted side of the holidays. Elf is smiling and always catches my eye. In order to start this, I had to get our Social Media Coordinator to back me up as she would be the one posting this for us on a daily basis.

WE LOVE TO HEAR FROM
CUSTOMERS WHO ARE HAPPY
WITH THEIR SELF-STORAGE
EXPERIENCE

Thank you. It was a pleasure dealing with you…you were most helpful! We will definitely consider your facility in the future should we require a storage facility.

Susan & Randy N.

My rental basement flooded and we needed to get my tenants belongings out asap. I called Lacombe Storage and they were very knowledgeable and able to help me in a timely manner by getting us a portable unit to our yard. We kept it for a couple months and had clear communication with them at all times. Super friendly to deal with and I highly recommend anyone to them for your storage needs!

Chelsea M.

Very affordable and simple. And very kind people to talk to. Highly recommend this Storage lot. We used it for our RV never had a issue. Only reason not continuing service is because our new place has room for our rv to be parked. Thanks so much Lacombe storage!

I came in to rent a storage locker and didn’t really know anything about rental units. I couldn’t believe how helpful and friendly Sue was. I will recommend Lacombe Storage to anyone looking for storage units. The best customer service I have received in Lacombe to date! Sue was amazing.

Samantha H.

A few years ago we rented a mobile storage container from you. When it was delivered, the driver was excellent and he was able to maneuver it through a tight spot to drop off the container.

Angela M.

I have never had to use a storage unit but Lacombe Storage Center and Sue Sage have been a huge part of our community. I have the Lacombe community group and they are always posting or commenting offering help to Lacombe residents. They have played a huge part in our community and deserve to be recognized for all they do.

We have used Lacombe storage foe a year now and find their facilities perfectly maintained. They took extra steps in protecting all of their customer’s belongings by upgrading locks which saw as an above and beyond action on their part. The staff are great and I love the email payment reminders that save me forgetting my rent.

Wendy B.

Thank you… you guys have been a godsend for us while we were finding a home, thanks again.
