Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the police keep lost items?

Pleasant Hill Police typically hold lost property for 30 to 90 days before disposal, depending on the item's condition and storage space. This is why filing a report early is important; ReportLost ensures your description reaches them immediately so they can identify your item if it comes in.

What should I do if I lost something on a DART bus?

Call DART customer service at 515-283-8100 with your route number and item description. They check the bus depot's lost and found. ReportLost files your report with both DART and Pleasant Hill Police simultaneously, covering both bases.

Can I search the city's lost and found online?

Pleasant Hill Police maintains a lost and found database accessible by phone (515-286-3333 for non-emergency inquiries). You can also check with City Hall at 515-262-9368. ReportLost does this outreach for you and keeps your report active so you're notified if a match appears.

Do I need to file a police report to recover a lost item?

A formal police report is typically used for stolen items; lost property is usually handled through lost and found channels. However, reporting to Pleasant Hill Police (non-emergency 515-286-3333) creates an official record and helps with recovery. ReportLost files this for you.

How long does ReportLost keep my report active?

You can choose a 6-month or 12-month search period. During that time, your report automatically matches against new found item posts, community announcements, and local lost and found updates, so you don't have to check manually every day.

Is ReportLost.org official or does it replace the police?

ReportLost is an independent service, not part of any government agency. We work alongside Pleasant Hill Police, DART, and community channels, not instead of them. We handle the coordination and long-term matching so you don't have to. The police and city services remain your primary channels for official reports.
