Frequently asked questions
Where does the Village of Los Ranchos hold lost items?
The Village holds lost and found items found on village property and facilities. Items are typically held for a reasonable period before being donated or disposed of. When you file with ReportLost, we report directly to the Village at (505) 344-6582 so they know to hold your item and can contact you when it arrives.
What if I lost something on an ABQ RIDE bus?
ABQ RIDE maintains a central lost and found for all buses in the area. Call them at (505) 243-7433 during business hours (8 a.m. onward) with a description. When you report with ReportLost, we include them in your notification so they're actively looking for your item.
How long does the Sheriff or Village hold lost items?
Holding periods vary. Most agencies keep items for 30 to 90 days before donating or discarding them. This is why reporting quickly matters, and why keeping your report active ensures you're notified the moment your item is found, even if it takes weeks to arrive at a facility.
I lost a pet. Who should I contact besides ReportLost?
Immediately contact Bernalillo County Animal Care Services at (505) 468-PETS (7387) for stray animals, the Animal Humane New Mexico at their lost and found page, and post in the 'Lost and Found Pets of Albuquerque' Facebook group.
