Google-maps – How to report a duplicate location on Google Maps

google maps

I work for a company which has two duplicate entries on Google Maps listed under slightly different names. Both of these entries list different addresses, which has caused some confusion for people trying to find our office.

To fix the issue, I would like to merge both locations into a single entry. Unfortunately, selecting "Report a data problem" on either location doesn't give me the option to report duplicates.

Is there a way to report duplicate locations on Google Maps?
