Where to report a lost item in Lomita
Key services and how to reach them
Lomita Sheriff's Station
The Lomita Sheriff's Station, part of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, is your primary contact for reporting lost property. They maintain a lost & found system and can provide guidance based on where and when you lost your item. Available 24/7.
City of Lomita
City Hall serves as a local hub for lost property inquiries and can direct you to the appropriate department or help coordinate with community resources. ReportLost lets you know which office to check based on your situation.
LAX Lost & Found
If you lost an item at Los Angeles International Airport, LAX's Lost and Found office is your first step. They maintain items found on airport property and in terminals. Contact them with a detailed description.
Lost pet? We handle that differently
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet in Lomita, LA County Animal Care & Control and local shelters are essential. They have dedicated systems for microchip lookups, intake records, and community alerts. But the fastest path is to file a priority lost pet report with us, which alerts search networks immediately.

Ready to report?
The sooner you file, the sooner local channels start looking. And once your report is filed, your search runs on its own schedule for months.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Lomita, whether it's a wallet, ring, phone, or beloved pet, means reporting to multiple separate services, each with different forms and timelines. The sheriff's station takes reports one way, city lost & found channels another, and community groups operate on their own. By the time you've called around, days may have passed.
ReportLost simplifies that process. One report goes to all the right places at once, and crucially, your description stays active in the search for months. You don't have to keep checking social media, calling back, or wondering if anyone is still looking. Your report does the work for you while you focus on other things.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the Lomita Sheriff's Station keep lost items?
Most lost property is held for 30 to 90 days depending on the type of item and whether it's claimed. Check with the station at (310) 539-1661 to confirm your specific item's hold period. ReportLost keeps your report active for 12 months, which means we continue searching even after the station's initial hold expires.
Can I file a lost item report online with the sheriff's station?
The Lomita Sheriff's Station accepts reports in person at 26123 S. Narbonne Avenue or by phone at (310) 539-1661. They may also accept reports through official LA County Sheriff channels. ReportLost submits your information directly, so you don't have to make the call yourself.
If I lost my pet in Lomita, how fast will it be found?
Speed matters for pets. Contact LA County Animal Care & Control immediately at their lost pet hotline, and post to community groups like Nextdoor and PawBoost right away. ReportLost's priority lost pet report triggers alerts to shelters and networks across the region within hours.
What if I lost an item at LAX?
Contact LAX Lost & Found directly at (424) 273-7266 with details of your item and your flight. Items are held for a limited time. If your item bounces between departments, ReportLost can help you track which office may have it and ensure follow-up.
Does ReportLost replace calling the sheriff's station or city?
No. ReportLost is an independent service that routes your report to the right local offices and keeps your search active across community channels for months. The sheriff's station and city still handle the actual property, hold it, and return it to you. We make sure your report reaches them and stays visible while you wait.
How is ReportLost different from just posting on Nextdoor or Facebook?
Posting on one community channel reaches only that platform's users. ReportLost sends your report to law enforcement, city services, and multiple community networks at once, then keeps it actively matching against new found items for 12 months. You file once and forget; we handle the ongoing search.
