Description
I lost my hand-carved oak coffee table yesterday around 3pm near the City Library on Main Street in Del Rio. It’s a sturdy 3-foot rectangular table with a warm honey stain and a single small drawer under the top. There are two tiny dings on the top-right corner and a faded initials carving 'D.M.' under the drawer; the brass pull is a little loose. This table was a gift from my grandfather, so it carries real sentimental value and I’d be grateful to have it back if anyone spots it in the Del Rio area.

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.
