We notify the right places
Your report is routed to Prince George's County Police, local lost property offices, community groups on Facebook and Nextdoor, and other relevant channels in your area. You don't have to make multiple calls or figure out which precinct covers your location.
Your report keeps searching for a match
For your entire search period (12 months), your report stays active. New found items, posts, and listings are automatically checked against your description. You get an alert the moment a credible match appears, so you can rest easy while we work behind the scenes.

Report my lost item →Losing something in Summerfield means juggling calls to Prince George's County Police, checking Facebook groups, browsing local lost & found pages, and hoping someone posts on Nextdoor.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long are lost items typically held by Prince George's County Police and local shelters?
Police and most local services hold items for varying periods, typically 30 days to a few months depending on the department. Animal shelters hold lost pets for at least 72 hours by Maryland law. With ReportLost, your report remains active for 12 months, so you stay in the search even after initial holding periods end, as items are passed to donation centers or new posts emerge.
If I lost something on the bus, where do I pick it up?
Items found on Ride On or MTA buses are held at their respective dispatch offices. Call MC311 (240-777-0311) for Ride On or 410-333-2387 for MTA to confirm location and schedule a pickup. We help you file the initial report with all the details they need and provide you the right contact.
Does reporting to ReportLost mean I don't have to contact the police?
ReportLost gets your report to the right local authorities and services, but we recommend you also file a formal police report if your loss is significant or involves theft. We make sure that happens and provide the information they need. For routine lost items, ReportLost covers the full notification pipeline.
What should I include in my lost item report?
Include a clear description (color, brand, size, distinctive marks), exactly where and when you lost it, and any personal details (initials engraved, unique features). Include your contact information. When you report with ReportLost, we format this for each channel and ensure nothing important is missing.
I lost my phone or wallet. What should I do immediately?
If it's a phone, contact your carrier to block it. For a wallet, call your bank to freeze cards. Then file your loss report with ReportLost right away. Your report reaches local police and community channels, and stays active to catch it if someone turns it in later.
Is ReportLost.org official, and does it replace contacting police or the shelter?
ReportLost is an independent service. We're not affiliated with police departments or shelters, but we partner with them by getting your report to the right place. We supplement official channels, making sure your description reaches everyone who can help and stays active in the search. For significant losses or if you suspect theft, you should also file a formal police report separately, which we help facilitate.
