  1. If anyone is in danger — a child or pet locked in a car or home in heat, or a break-in in progress — call 911 first.
  2. Wait somewhere safe and well lit, especially at night.
  3. Check for a spare key with a household member, neighbour or landlord or property manager.
  4. Have ID and proof of address or vehicle ownership ready.
  5. Do not force the door or window.
  6. Send the request form.
  7. After a break-in, report it to the police and contact your insurer.
