Getting your report in the right hands matters
The sooner you file, the sooner your item can be matched and returned. Once you submit your report to ReportLost, our team takes it from there, reaching out to all the local departments and channels on your behalf. You can focus on your day while your report stays active.
Report my lost item →Everett residents know the feeling: you realize something is missing, and suddenly you're juggling calls to the police non-emergency line, City Hall, the MBTA if you use the bus, plus scouring Facebook groups and local listings. Each office operates on its own timeline, and if no one has turned your item in yet, you're left checking back repeatedly over weeks. ReportLost simplifies that entire process. File once, and we coordinate across every local lost and found system that matters in Everett, while your report stays active so nothing slips through the cracks.
The difference is in the follow-through. While you move on with your day, your report automatically matches against new found items, transit discoveries, and posts in community channels. You only hear from us when we have a real lead, not when you have to manually search again. Whether you lost your keys on the bus, left a wallet at a local business, or misplaced something important around town, one report gets you in front of all the places and people most likely to help, with built-in continuity for months.

How long does the MBTA keep items left on buses?
The MBTA's lost and found holds items for a limited time. Call the number associated with your bus route (found on mbta.com) as soon as possible. ReportLost can help you file a report that reaches them and stays active for follow-ups.
Where do I pick up a lost item once it's found?
It depends on where your item was found. If police have it, you'll pick it up at their station on Elm Street. If it's on the MBTA, they'll direct you to the appropriate depot or station. If found at a business, they'll hold it there. We'll guide you to the right location once a match is confirmed.
