This probably sounds like a good deal for your own personal items, right? I’m sure you would want to know if anything of yours has been tampered with, especially while traveling or staying somewhere other than your home. Here are three different scenarios where you can put your mind at ease by utilizing security seal products.

Traveling by Plane

As if the packing process isn’t stressful enough, traveling by plane can leave you worrying about lost or tampered luggage, especially if the destination is far.

Use tamper-evident security tape to secure a luggage lock, zippers and anything that requires a key to open, like a safe. Use padlocks on the zippers of the luggage.

You can also take comfort in knowing that airlines utilize security seals in different areas of the plane, such as the belly. American Casting & Manufacturing explains, “Wherever there is a bag, bin or crate that luggage or cargo goes into, there will also be a seal. After the transported goods are inspected, they are also sealed before they are loaded onto the plane. Those seals are then checked as they are unloaded to be sure that nothing has been either tampered with or affected by general travel.”

Staying at the Hotel

In this situation, you’re somewhere that you’re probably not entirely familiar with, but are granted basic security. Still, you can’t always be sure if your items are at risk or how reliable hotel room safes are.

Use tamper-evident security tape to cover the lock of the door. Use a cable lock on anything valuable you need to leave behind, like your laptop. Use extra tape to cover up the peephole on the door.

Sending Items Through Mail

In this situation, the same thought process applies:

Use tamper-evident security tape when mailing important documents, packages or money. Use plastic security seals for mail sacks.

Security products don’t come with a 100% guarantee that nothing will be stolen, but it is an easy and quick indication that tampering occurred. Also, individuals are less likely to attempt it when these products are involved.
