Description
I was finishing up a shelving project yesterday around 3pm and somehow misplaced my DeWalt 20V cordless drill in the yellow-and-black hard case. It’s got a small orange airplane sticker on the battery and a noticeable dent on the rubber grip from a fall, plus a few scratches along the case. I last had it in the parking lot behind the hardware store on Main Street in Bad Axe, near the corner with the post office and the little cafe. This drill was a gift from my dad and it’s really important to me to get it back soon.

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.
