Description
I lost my yellow DeWalt 20V cordless drill yesterday around 3pm in the parking lot outside the Lowe's on Electric Road in Roanoke. It's in the original yellow hard case with the drill, charger, and one spare battery. The case is a bit scuffed on the latch and has a small coffee stain on the bottom edge. The drill's rubber grip is worn and there's blue painter's tape with the initials 'JP' on the battery. It was a gift from my dad and means a lot to me; I really need it back for a few upcoming home repairs. If you found it, please text me—I'd be forever grateful.

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.
