Questions about losing and finding items in Barnwell
How long will the Barnwell Police hold a lost item I report?
Items held by the police department are typically kept for 30 to 90 days depending on the item's condition and type. Our team will contact the police on your behalf to confirm your item and arrange pickup or delivery.
Can I report an item lost at the airport, and how do I pick it up?
Yes. Call Barnwell Regional Airport at 803-259-1090 during business hours (9 AM to 5 PM, seven days a week). We'll also file a report with the airport and alert you if your item surfaces.
What should I do if I find an item in Barnwell?
