Remember to record the serial numbers, make, and model, of your property items. As well, consider adding visible personal identifiers.

Safeguard your valuables by making your mark! Property that is marked or etched with an identifying number is considered “damaged goods” in the eyes of a criminal.

In support of the OPP SafeGuard Ontario Property Security Program, Operation Identification is a property marking initiative designed to help discourage the theft of valuables by facilitating the identification of recovered stolen property. The idea is to simply engrave your valuables with an identifying number in a highly visible spot.

The OPP recommends using a unique identifying number as your personal Operation Identification number to visibly mark all your valuables.
