How ReportLost Works
You Report Your Loss
Tell us what you lost, where you were, and when it happened. We gather the details you'll need to file a proper claim and start monitoring immediately.
We Route It to the Right Places
Your report reaches Chino Police, the San Bernardino County animal shelter system, local transit operators (Omnitrans), and Ontario Airport lost and found, all at once, so you don't have to call each one separately.
We Monitor Everything for You
Our system scans community Facebook groups, Nextdoor posts, classified sites, and local social channels every day for 12 months. The moment a credible match appears, you'll get an alert, so you can focus on your day instead of refreshing search results.
Where to Report in Chino
Each option below lets you report on your own, or we can connect you to all of them at once.
Chino Police Department
The Chino Police Records Unit maintains lost property reports and can tell you if anything matching your description has been turned in. They're open 24 hours for emergencies and available during business hours for non-emergency reports. We can determine which precinct covers your loss location and generate the exact details to include when you call.
City of Chino Administration
City Hall can direct you to the right department or provide general assistance if you lost something in a city building or public facility. They can help clarify which office has jurisdiction over your specific loss location.
Omnitrans (Local Bus Service)
If you left your item on an Omnitrans bus in Chino, the lost and found department keeps items for 30 days. Call their main line to report which route you rode and when, and we can make sure your description reaches the right depot supervisor.
Ontario International Airport
If your loss happened at Ontario Airport (about 15 minutes from Chino), their Lost and Found office is located in Terminal 2 behind the Information desk and holds items for a set period. We can help you file a concurrent report here and with airport operations.
Lost Pet Priority
If you've lost a dog, cat, or other pet, contact the Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. or the San Bernardino County animal shelter system immediately. They maintain found pet records and can scan for microchip matches. For the fastest response and continuous monitoring across all shelters and local groups, file a priority lost pet report.

The Sooner You Report, the Better
Taking action today means your description gets into circulation while the memory is freshest and before items get misplaced or forgotten. Once you've submitted your report, the ongoing monitoring starts working for you right away, checking every corner of the local web so you don't have to.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Chino can feel overwhelming, especially when you realize there's no single place to report it and no way to keep tabs on everything at once. You'd have to call the police non-emergency line, check with Omnitrans if you lost it on a bus, monitor Facebook Lost and Found groups yourself, maybe visit the local animal shelter if it's a pet, and keep an eye on classified ads every single day, all while hoping something turns up.
ReportLost bridges that gap. One submission reaches all the official channels and triggers continuous, automated monitoring of the places where lost items actually surface: community posts, neighborhood apps, and online marketplaces. You file the report once, and our system takes over the hunt for you, alerting you when something credible appears. It's the peace of mind that comes from knowing someone is searching, even while you sleep.

Is ReportLost.org an official city service, or does it replace calling the police?
ReportLost is an independent service, not affiliated with Chino Police or the City of Chino. We complement official reporting by automatically notifying the right agencies and monitoring the entire web for matches over months, saving you time and effort. You should still file an official report with Chino Police if your loss involves a theft, insurance claim, or significant value. ReportLost ensures nothing falls through the cracks by watching everywhere official channels don't.
