March/April 2020 - Before you leave for Easter:
Check it
Lock it
Leave it
- Secure your house
- Remember to make sure that all the windows and doors are locked and secure before leaving for the Easter vacation, don’t assume someone else will do it. If you have to leave anything valuable, then store it out of sight. Remember to tell your landlord when you will be leaving and for how long.
- Don’t forget to dispose of your rubbish and recycling responsibly too – for details visit www.gwynedd.llyw.cymru/en/Residents/Bins-and-recycling/Bins-and-recycling.aspx
Enjoy the Easter vacation and we’ll see you after the break!

Also, make sure that the heating is set to come on regularly - constant low heat is better than short bursts of high heat - and of course make sure that there is plenty of credit on the meter if you have one. Tell your landlord when you will be leaving and what you intend to do with regards to the heating.
