Living rural means long nights, long distances, and slow response times by Emergency Services. I’m offering a simple service to help keep our area safer — and to help supplement my pension.

What I do

• Regular drive‑by checks of your property
• Observe from the road (no disturbing stock or sleepers)
• Keep an eye out for anything unusual
• Contact you and call Police if needed

What I don’t do

• No driving onto private property
• No confrontation or chasing
• No acting as Police or security

Just eyes, ears, and a friendly local presence.

Cost

$5 per week or $20 per month

If you’d like your place included on the route, get in touch.

Contact Frans in Rotoorangi.
