Empty Gift boxes like tv' computers, expensive game boxes etc. give thieves info about what is in the house

The Cape Coral Police Department and City of Cape Coral are teaming up with Waste Pro to keep our community safe and help prevent crime during the holidays. Instead of placing your empty gift boxes at the curb, Waste Pro is providing a community site where residents can dispose of cardboard boxes.

Boxes left at the roadway serve as billboard for criminals who drive through neighborhoods looking to see who received the newest televisions, video game systems, or other electronics. The goal is to reduce residential and vehicle burglaries. Don’t be an easy target for criminals.

The bin will be available for recyclable materials only.

Location:

1020 Cultural Park Boulevard (parking lot area across the street from City Hall)

Dates:

December 24, 2020 through December 28, 2020.
