Schaumburg offering Vacation Watch for out-of-town homeowners

Schaumburg homeowners can take advantage of the Schaumburg Police Department's Vacation Watch Program for added protection while away on a trip.

A Vacation Watch request alerts the beat officer in the resident’s neighborhood that they will be away during specified dates, and extra patrols will be performed as time permits to check the exterior of the property.

Vacation Watch requests can be made by dialing 311 in Schaumburg, calling (847) 895-4500, or online at https://dmzappsvr1.schaumburg.com/vacationwatch.
