Where lost items go in Citrus Park
Contact these services directly, or let ReportLost route your report to all of them at once.
Police & Lost Property
Citrus Park is unincorporated, so lost items are handled through Maricopa County or neighboring Litchfield Park authorities. Items handed in to local police are cataloged and held for claim. We identify which jurisdiction covers your loss location and file your report with the right desk so it's tracked from day one.
Public Transit (Valley Metro)
If you left your wallet or phone on a Valley Metro bus, the Lost & Found office holds items for a limited time. We generate the exact details you need to include in your claim and ensure your report reaches their system immediately.
Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport
Sky Harbor is 30 minutes away and receives thousands of lost items daily. The TSA Lost and Found and airport property office track everything from rings to laptops. We point you to the right terminal contact and file your report with their system right away.
Lost or Found Pets
Dogs and cats are brought to Maricopa County Animal Control, Arizona Humane Society, or Humane Society of Central Arizona. Time is critical for pets. We file an urgent report immediately across all local shelters and rescue networks so your cat or dog is flagged in their systems from the moment you report it. File a priority lost pet report
Retail & Public Places
Lost items in shops, parking lots, and parks are often turned in to store security or local management. We help you document what was lost and where, so when you contact these locations or post to community boards, your description is consistent and complete.

Start your search now, not tomorrow
The sooner you file, the sooner every office in the area is aware of what you've lost. And once your report is in, you can breathe. The system keeps searching while you handle other things.
Report my lost item →Citrus Park sits in the heart of greater Phoenix, surrounded by neighborhoods, parks, and transit hubs where wallets, phones, and pets go missing every day. When something disappears, you're left juggling calls to Maricopa County Animal Control, checking Valley Metro's lost and found line, posting to Facebook groups, and hoping someone reports a ring or bracelet they've spotted. It's exhausting, and by the time you've contacted the fourth office, days have passed.
ReportLost simplifies the hunt by consolidating your report into one form that immediately reaches animal shelters, police services, transit lost and found, and the community channels where items resurface. The key difference: your report doesn't vanish after you file it. It stays active and continuously searches for matches against new found items, alerts, and posts for months, so you can stop refreshing your phone and trust that your lost item is being tracked automatically.

Frequently asked questions about lost items in Citrus Park
How long does Maricopa County Animal Control hold a stray pet?
Stray pets are typically held for a minimum of 5 business days, sometimes longer if space allows. However, animals can be adopted or transferred after that period. It's critical to report your lost pet immediately by calling 602-506-7387 so your description is in their system right away.
How long does Valley Metro keep lost items?
Valley Metro holds lost items for a limited time before they are either claimed or discarded. Contact their Lost & Found office at 602-534-5053 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. The sooner you report, the better your chances of recovery.
What if I lost something at Sky Harbor? How do I claim it?
Sky Harbor's TSA Lost and Found office is in Terminal 3, Level 7. Call 602-626-1476 or visit their website to file a claim. For items lost in terminal areas outside security, contact the airport's main Lost and Found at 602-273-3333. We can help you file with both offices simultaneously.
Where do I pick up a lost item once it's been found?
It depends on where the item was found. Items turned in to police go to the appropriate jurisdiction (Litchfield Park or Maricopa County); bus items are held at Valley Metro; airport items at Sky Harbor; and stray pets at Maricopa County Animal Control (602-506-7387) or local shelters. We help you navigate which location to contact.
Can I search for lost items on my own without ReportLost?
Yes, you can call each office individually, post to Facebook groups, and check Nextdoor manually every day. But this is time-consuming and items are often claimed or moved before you've contacted everywhere. ReportLost files with all relevant offices at once and keeps your report active for 12 months, automatically checking for matches so you don't have to.
Is ReportLost official, or does it replace the police?
ReportLost is an independent service, not affiliated with any police department or government agency. We don't replace official channels, we complement them. We file your report with the right local authorities and keep it active longer than you could manage alone, but you can always file directly with police or animal control yourself. We just make it faster and more thorough.
