City or county?
Inside the city, the Bartow Police Department responds. Many Bartow mailing addresses, in ZIP code 33830, are outside the city limits, and there the Polk County Sheriff's Office is the police agency.
Ask the officer who comes for a card with the case number and a number to call about release. Outside city limits, the Polk County Sheriff's Office is the police agency. Its non-emergency number, 863-298-6200, is also the one it gives for after-hours calls (PCSO contact page).
Estate papers
Polk County's Clerk of Courts takes probate filings. Its main office is the Polk County Courthouse at 255 N. Broadway Ave. in Bartow, and its main number is (863) 534-4000 (Clerk contact page).
None of this has to wait for the cleanup, or the other way round. The person with authority over the property can approve the work now.
