How ReportLost works in Fresno
You submit your loss details
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We generate the exact information needed for every local channel.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes to the Fresno Police Department, FAX Transit (if on a bus), Fresno Yosemite Airport (if travel-related), and active Fresno lost & found networks.
Automated web monitoring finds matches
Our system scans Facebook groups, Nextdoor, local marketplaces, and community posts for 6 to 12 months. We alert you the moment a credible match appears, so you can focus on your day instead of refreshing feeds.
Where to report a lost item in Fresno
Your options, and what ReportLost does to speed them up
Fresno Police Department
The official channel for lost property reports. Call the non-emergency line or file online. We tell you which precinct covers your loss location and draft the details they need.
FAX Transit Lost & Found
Left something on a Fresno bus? FAX holds items at their main office on Brawley Avenue and takes inquiries by phone. We prompt you with the exact details to provide.
Fresno Yosemite International Airport
Items left in the terminal or at TSA checkpoints are logged at the Airport Public Security Office. We ensure your description reaches the right desk during business hours.
Fresno City Hall & County Services
For items lost at city facilities or if you need official records support, City Hall coordinates with local departments. We help you identify the right department contact.
Lost or Found a Pet
Fresno Animal Center and Fresno Humane Animal Services both maintain lost and found registries and are active on community networks. If you've lost a pet, file a priority lost pet report with ReportLost so we can alert shelters and rescue networks immediately.

Report your loss and let the search begin
The sooner you file, the sooner we can notify local channels and start monitoring. Once submitted, you're not alone, the system is watching for you.
Report my lost item →Fresno is a vibrant city where things go missing every day, whether at the airport, on FAX buses, in downtown shops, or at community spots. The challenge: lost items scatter across different police precincts, transit systems, and dozens of local Facebook groups. Nobody tells you which one to check, and by the time you call them all, days have passed.
ReportLost simplifies that chaos. One submission, and we notify the right authorities, generate the bulletins, and keep a constant watch across the web so lost items surface on their own. Your role ends after you report. Ours continues for months.
