Frequently asked questions about lost items in Bliss Corner
How long do the police hold lost property?
The Dartmouth Police Department typically holds items for 30 to 90 days. Call (508) 910-1700 during business hours to confirm whether your item is in their custody and to arrange pickup.
What if I lost something on the MBTA?
Contact the MBTA Lost & Found on their website or by phone. Be ready to describe the item and specify the route and time you lost it. Items are usually held for 30 days.
Can I file a lost pet report online?
Yes. The Town of Dartmouth accepts lost pet reports via their website at dartmouthma.gov. You can also call Dartmouth Police dispatch at (774) 929-5662 to report a missing dog or cat immediately.
How does ReportLost find my item if I've already called the police?
ReportLost goes beyond the police. We contact animal control, transit lost & found, local shops, and community groups simultaneously. More importantly, your report stays active for 12 months, continuously matching your item description against new found posts and marketplace listings. If someone posts a found item weeks later, you'll be notified.
What if my item turns up somewhere unexpected?
That's common. An item lost downtown might be turned in by a kind stranger to a shop 5 miles away, or posted by a community member on Facebook a week later. Your active report automatically alerts you when a credible match appears, no matter where it shows up.
Is ReportLost.org an official government service?
No. ReportLost is an independent service that works alongside official channels. We're not part of the Dartmouth Police Department or MBTA, but we coordinate with them and route your report to the right authority. We handle the legwork of notifying multiple offices and monitoring community channels so you don't have to.
