Description
I lost my DeWalt 20V Max cordless drill yesterday around 3pm near Marion Square, outside the Charleston Library Society on Meeting Street. The drill is bright yellow and black and lives in a black carrying case; the grip is a bit scuffed and it has a 1/2-inch chuck. The battery has blue painter's tape with my initials 'AK' written on it. It was a gift from my dad and has sentimental value—I've got ongoing home projects waiting on it, and I really need it back. If anyone found it, I'm grateful to get it back and can arrange a nearby drop-off or meetup through the app.

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.
