Where lost items go in Pebble Creek
Know exactly where to look and what to do
Tampa Police Department (Lost Property)
If you lost an item in Pebble Creek or nearby Tampa neighborhoods, the Police Department's Lost Property unit (813-276-3250) may be holding it. Items are typically kept for a set period before disposal. We identify which precinct covers your location and file the report on your behalf so nothing falls through the cracks.

Items are held by appointment and checked against your report automatically by our system, so you're covered whether you call or we do it for you.
Tampa International Airport
If you lost something at TPA or on a flight, the airport's Lost and Found (Monday–Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.) keeps items for a recovery window. You can file a claim online at any time, and we ensure your description reaches them so it's flagged if it arrives.
Lost & Found Pets

Pebble Creek Community & Local Businesses
Check with the Pebble Creek Homeowners Association community center, local shops, restaurants, and gyms where you may have been. Many keep lost and found bins for days or weeks. We craft a detailed post for Nextdoor, Facebook community groups, and local networks so residents and business owners know exactly what to look for.

The sooner you report, the sooner we search
The first hours and days matter most. Filing your report now gets your item into the system while memory is fresh and recovery odds are highest. Once your report is active, you can breathe easy—our team takes the search from there.
Report my lost item →Pebble Creek is a thriving residential community in New Tampa, but when you lose a wallet, phone, ring, or beloved pet here, the recovery process can feel scattered. Lost items end up with the Tampa Police, Hillsborough County Sheriff, HART bus lost and found, local animal shelters, and community members posting on Facebook and Nextdoor, all operating independently. Searching every channel yourself takes hours and often leads nowhere.
ReportLost simplifies the chaos. One report connects you to all the right places at once and keeps your case active for the long term. Rather than you checking sites and groups every morning, your report automatically searches for a match against new finds for up to a year. That means you can move forward with confidence, knowing the system is still working for you behind the scenes.
