DeWalt 20V cordless drill, yellow/black, sentimental
Description
I lost my DeWalt 20V cordless drill yesterday around 3pm, in Boulder near the Pearl Street Mall, outside a small coffee shop on the 100 block of Pearl Street. It’s the yellow and black model with a well-worn black rubber grip, a 2.0Ah battery, and a small dent on the plastic casing from a fall. The drill comes in a black carrying case, and the battery has an orange label with the initials 'P.N.' engraved on it. It meant a lot to me because it was my late father’s go-to tool, and I’m really hoping it turns up. If anyone found it, shoot me a message here and I’ll swing by to pick it up as soon as possible.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
