From  arranging a truck and getting help from friends or family, to organizing what goes where and what you should leave behind. In all of this, there\u2019s no time for one to consider home security. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your safety is one of the key things to think about when moving into a new neighbourhood. Moving could be a complete emotional rollercoaster for some, and even after you\u2019re all settled in it feels like there\u2019s something missing. That void is often a sense of security and the peace of mind that comes only with an active home security system installed at home, no matter how safe they say the neighbourhood is. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what can you do to make sure you don\u2019t leave behind that sense of security?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Before the move<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Great you\u2019ve got the keys to the place, now before you decide on a date to move, get your home assessed either in person or through phone with an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/alarmguardsecurity.ca\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">authorized home security expert available here, at Alarm Guard.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You could also get a monitored home security system installed even before you move in.

Consider the following tips to ensure the safety of your belongings:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unattended open boxes on the footpath are as good as gone!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you move in, change the locks. A past tenant could still have a copy of their spare key. Consider changing to a smart door lock for even more security.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check that contents insurance is up to date, and the policy has been transferred to the new address by moving day.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>After the move<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can\u2019t be at home all the time\u2026 or can you?
