Cherry Hill Police Designate Safe Zones For Online Sales

CHERRY HILL, NJ — Cherry Hill police have designated safe zones for residents to complete online sales and purchases this holiday season.

“These safe zones are designed to increase the safety of online purchases by giving members of the public a highly visible location in which to complete the transactions, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week,” according to the Cherry Hill Police Department.

These areas are located at the municipal building, 820 Mercer Street, and they are marked with bright yellow signs that read “Safe Transaction Zone.”

One is the police department’s lobby, and the other is in the “horseshoe” of parking spots in the back lot at Town Hall. Both sites are continuously monitored by surveillance cameras.

Police officers will not participate in or witness transactions or guarantee the quality or authenticity of items purchased. Transactions involving weapons, drugs, drug paraphernalia, or any other illegal activity are not permitted in these zones.
