You report what you lost
Tell us what went missing, where, and when. We collect all the details once, so you won't have to repeat yourself to multiple offices.

Where to report lost items in Citrus Hills
Contact information for local lost and found offices, and what to do next
Citrus County Sheriff's Office
The main agency for lost and found reports in the county. You can report in person or by phone. We tell you which precinct covers your loss location and what information to have ready.
Citrus County Transit Services
Left your wallet, phone, or ring on a bus? Transit operators turn in found items to the central office. We generate the right contact details and can note your item in the system so it's flagged if it comes in.
Lost and Found Pets
If your cat or dog is missing, Citrus County Animal Services and local shelters need to know right away. Stray pets are held for three to five business days; alerting us means we can also post to pet-specific networks. File a priority lost pet report.
Citrus County Government
For general questions about services or to report a lost item at a county facility, the main government office can point you in the right direction. We'll help you identify the exact department and fastest route.
⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.
Get your report in front of the right people
The sooner you report, the sooner the search starts across all channels. The Citrus County Sheriff's Office, transit services, and community groups all move faster when they have a complete description. Once you've filed with us, you can step back and we'll handle the rest.
Report my lost item →Citrus Hills spreads across a large county, and losing something means dealing with the Sheriff's Office in one location, county transit in another, animal control elsewhere if it's a pet, plus scattered community groups. Most people end up calling each service separately, repeating the same story and waiting on different hold times.
ReportLost simplifies it. One report, one time, and we make sure it reaches every relevant local office and stays searchable for months. Your item description automatically matches against new "found" posts and shelter intakes so you can stop checking Facebook groups and shelter websites yourself. Once you report, the legwork is handled.
