Mountains or beach...

Summer is here and its time for a vacation getaway.  Before you go, however,  call the Greenville Police Department and let us know...

One of services offered by the Greenville Police Department is the Vacation House Check.   Before you go out of town,  call the police department and request this service.   You'll be asked to provide some basic information such as:

• How many days will you be away?
• Is there an emergency contact person we can call if we need to?
• Does someone nearby have an extra set of keys

A Community Services Represntative will ask you some other questions and then complete a house check form for you and assign the house check to the proper area officer or police volunteer.  You can do all this over the telephone. 

Then while you are gone,  someone will stop by your home periodically and conduct a physical  inspection, making sure your windows and doors are secure,  your garage is locked, etc...

This is one of the most under-utilized services our department offers, and it is also one of the best services for providing peace of mind for residents while they are away from home.

The next time you're going on vacation, or anytime you need to leave for several days,  Call the Greenville Police Department at 252-329-4315.  Request a Vacation House Check.
