The sooner you report, the sooner we search
Losing something is stressful, but reporting it early makes a real difference. Once your loss is filed with ReportLost, you've done the hard part. Our system takes it from there, quietly working across local channels and keeping your case active for months. No daily checking required.
Report my lost item →Losing your wallet, phone, or keys in Corte Madera means calling the police non-emergency line, checking Marin Transit's lost and found, posting on Facebook, and hoping someone posts a match in the right group.

ReportLost simplifies that. File once, and we notify Central Marin Police, Town Hall, Marin Transit, and local community spaces all at once. More important: your report doesn't stop searching after one day. It stays active for up to a year, continuously matching against new found items and posts. Once your report is filed, you can breathe easy while we keep looking for you.
Common places where items go missing in Corte Madera
Most losses happen in high-traffic areas or while traveling through town. If you remember the neighborhood, it helps narrow the search.
Town Center & Shopping District
The commercial core around Tamalpais Drive and Town Center area sees steady foot traffic. Wallets and phones slip away in shops, parking lots, and during errands.
Marin Transit Bus Routes
Items left on buses or at stops often end up in the Marin Transit lost and found. Acting fast increases the chance of recovery.
Parks & Open Space
Local parks and trails are beloved, but wallets, rings, and keys can easily slip out during activity or relaxation.
Residential Neighborhoods
Keys and small items go missing during walks, visits to friends, or neighborhood errands. Community groups help reunite lost items with neighbors.
Community channels where lost items surface
Lost and found posts pop up on local Facebook groups and Nextdoor. ReportLost alerts these communities so your item has multiple eyes searching.
