Request Evidence / Safekeeping Pickup

Request received

Your reference number is:

The evidence custodian has been notified and will contact you by phone or email to confirm or change your requested pickup date and time. Your appointment is not confirmed until you hear back. Please do not come to the Department until your pickup has been confirmed.

How this works

Use this form to request an appointment to pick up property held by the Milledgeville Police Department as evidence or for safekeeping. Pickups are by appointment only, on Mondays and Fridays. The evidence custodian will review your request and contact you to verify it or propose a different time.

Submitting this form does not guarantee release of any item. Release is subject to the evidence custodian’s verification, chain-of-custody rules, and the status of any related case.

Required at pickup

Valid photo identification is required: a photo driver’s/operator’s license issued by the corresponding state, or other government-issued photo ID.
The evidence custodian may require additional documentation to validate ownership or authority to receive the item (for example a title, receipt, serial-number record, court order, or written authorization). You may be contacted before your appointment with a request for these.
Picking up for someone else (authorized representative): clear identification is required, and the Evidence Technician must approve it before any item is returned on behalf of another person.
Every release is documented on the chain-of-custody record. The person receiving the item must sign for it.

Firearms – safety rules

Firearms are returned disassembled, for the safety of officers and the person receiving the property.
No loaded magazines or ammunition will be handed back with a firearm.
Items are returned in separate bags. Bags are not to be opened by the owner. Only the evidence technician may open a bag so you can verify the item is yours; it is then placed back in the bag and sealed.
Items are never to be removed from their bags or opened inside Milledgeville Police Department headquarters, at any time.
