Report my lost item →Losing something in Willows, whether it's your wallet downtown, your bracelet at a local restaurant, or your dog on one of the neighborhood streets, means scrambling through separate channels.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly should I report a lost item in Willows?
The sooner the better. Reporting within the first few hours gives police, Animal Control, and community members the best window to spot your item or pet. ReportLost routes your report immediately to all relevant channels, so there's no delay in getting the word out.
What happens if I lose a pet in Willows?
Call Glenn County Animal Control at 530-934-6431 right away to report it. They maintain records of found animals, and you can also post in the Willows Missing/Found Pets Facebook group to reach neighbors directly. For comprehensive coverage across all local animal services and community pet networks, file a priority lost pet report on ReportLost.
Does City Hall hold lost items, and how long do they keep them?
Yes, items turned in at City Hall (201 N Lassen St) or brought to police are documented. You can call 530-934-7041 to ask if an item matching yours has been turned in. Check with them directly about holding periods and how to retrieve your property during their hours (Monday-Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Friday by appointment only).
How long does ReportLost keep searching for my item?
Your report stays active and searchable for your entire period (12 months, depending on your selection). During that time, we automatically check new found item listings, marketplace posts, and community alerts to find a match. You'll receive an alert the moment we spot a credible lead, so you're not doing the detective work yourself.
Can I post my lost item on social media myself instead of using ReportLost?
You absolutely can post on Facebook groups and Nextdoor, and many people do. ReportLost saves you the time of doing that manually and coordinates your report across all the official channels at once (police, City Hall, Animal Control). Plus, because your report stays active for months, you benefit from automated matching, which social posts alone don't offer. Many users do both for maximum reach.
Is ReportLost.org official or a replacement for the police?
ReportLost is an independent service that works alongside police, animal control, and community channels, not a replacement for them. We don't have access to police records or official lost and found systems, but we notify those agencies on your behalf and coordinate your report across multiple channels so nothing falls through the cracks. For urgent matters (theft, emergency), always contact the police directly.
