Cell Phone Reverse 911 Registration
In an emergency, officials in Delaware can contact you using a reverse 911 system. If you do not have a landline, though, you may not get that lifesaving call.
Landlines, both listed and unlisted, automatically get the reverse 911 call. But people who use cell phones need to call a special number to get signed up.
With a growing number of people using cell phones instead of landlines, state emergency officials say they want more cell phone users to get involved.
To register your cell phone for reverse 911 in Delaware through FirstCall, dial (866) 484-3264 or view the press release from Sussex County Emergency Operation Center (EOC).
