Porch Pirates, Are they Real?

November 24, 2021/in Recent Posts /by sue

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 more self storage hacks and ideas, follow along with our Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/DraytonValleyStorage/

Small Storage Solutions: Are They For You?

January 3, 2017/in Uncategorized /by sue

Okay, you’ve tapped into your “storage genius” and organized every closet, nook and cranny in your home. You’ve pared down and decluttered all you can bare. So, what options are left if you still need to create a little breathing room in your home?

People often take decluttering to the next level with a self-storage unit. But what if a 5×5 or 5×10 storage unit is more than you need? At Storage Group Alberta, we have the means to help you store a little for less! We’re not just talking about storage units but actual smaller storage solutions.

If you are just looking to store a box of possessions like say the holiday decorations, a Christmas tree, golf clubs or skis. Storage Group Alberta will store single items at a very low cost. Some of our storage locations will even pick up boxed items from your home or office. Read more

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

The manager at Drayton Valley Storage, Ashley, is fantastic to deal with, is very friendly and goes the extra mile to be sure everything is just right for us. Mini pods are ideal for our special event storage. Pod was delivered to our event location right when we needed it and picked up upon our request. Can’t believe I used to store all this stuff in my office!!

COLLEEN S.

This facility was a pleasure to do business with. The unit was clean, dry and easy accessible. The office staff were pleasant and informative. I would definitely recommend them and use again if necessary.

LINDA T.

A huge shout out to Candice down at DV Storage! This girl is awesome! I wasn’t sure the size of unit needed & in telling her what I was storing she was able to set me up with the perfect size. She was very knowledgeable & patient in answering every one of my questions & even took the time to explain the app that I needed for the gate. If you are needing a storage unit she is the person to see. Thank you for doing such a fantastic job Candice.

As a tenant of Drayton Valley Storage, this is a wonderful facility with great staff. They offer a wide variety of units to suit anyone’s needs.
