Where to report and recover lost items in Pearl River
Official offices and community channels
Orangetown Police Department
The primary police authority serving Pearl River. Report your lost item to the non-emergency line, and police will note it and hold found property according to state retention guidelines. We provide you with the precinct details and the exact information to include in your report.
Town of Orangetown
As a hamlet within Orangetown, Pearl River's municipal services run through the town government. If you lost something in a public space, the town office may have information about where items are turned in. ReportLost tells you which department handles your specific location.
Local Transit Lost and Found
If you lost your item on a regional bus, the transit authority keeps a lost and found. Dutchess County Public Transit covers service in the area. Call their customer service line to report or check for your belongings. We generate the details you'll need to provide.
Lost Pets
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet in Pearl River, contact the Pearl River County SPCA and post in community pet groups. They use image recognition and direct matching to reunite lost animals with their owners. Many found pets are reported through local Facebook groups and Petco Love Lost. File a priority lost pet report for faster coverage.
Community Facebook Groups
Pearl River residents actively share lost and found items in local community groups and Rockland County pages. These groups move fast and reach neighbors who may have found your wallet, phone, or keys. ReportLost posts your report to these channels and keeps it visible during your search period.

Report now, and your search continues while you live your life
The sooner you report, the sooner your item can be matched with found reports. Once your signalment is live, the matching runs in the background. You'll hear from us if a match appears.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Pearl River can mean juggling calls to the Orangetown Police Department, checking multiple Facebook groups, and hoping someone posts about your item before it's forgotten. The local lost and found system works, but it's fragmented: police hold property for a limited time, Facebook groups reach only those who scroll regularly, and you end up repeating your story to each office.
ReportLost simplifies that. One report, filed once, is automatically shared with the right channels in Pearl River, and it stays active as new found items are posted and reported. You describe your loss once, we do the routing, and your signalement continues to match against incoming reports for months, so you can focus on your day instead of monitoring every local post.

Questions about reporting lost items in Pearl River
How long does the Orangetown Police Department hold lost property?
New York State law requires police to hold lost property for a reasonable period before it may be disposed of. Contact the Orangetown Police Department at (845) 359-3700 to ask about specific retention timelines for your item. ReportLost keeps your report active during this window so you're matched if your item is turned in.
Can I file a report if I lost something on a bus?
Yes. If your item was left on a regional transit bus, report it to Dutchess County Public Transit customer service at (845) 473-8424 (Monday–Friday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.). ReportLost can include transit details in your report to ensure it reaches the right lost and found desk.
What should I include when reporting a lost ring or wallet?
Provide a detailed description: material, color, distinctive marks, any engravings or initials, and approximate value. For a wallet, note any ID cards or money inside. The more specific, the easier it is for someone who finds it to confirm it's yours. ReportLost guides you through these details step by step.
How do I search for my lost cat or dog in Pearl River?
Contact the Pearl River County SPCA at (228) 466-4516 (Monday–Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.) to report your lost pet and ask if any animals matching your description have been brought in. Post in the 'LOST AND FOUND PETS IN ROCKLAND COUNTY, NY' Facebook group and upload your pet's photo to Petco Love Lost. ReportLost has a dedicated pet report option that reaches all these channels faster.
What if I lost something weeks ago? Is it too late to report?
It's never too late. Items are sometimes found and held long after the loss date. Reporting now means your description goes into the system and stays active, so if your wallet or keys are discovered later and someone checks local reports, you'll be notified. ReportLost keeps your report searching for 12 months.
Is ReportLost.org an official police service or government agency?
No, ReportLost is an independent service that helps you report lost items and automatically routes your report to official police departments, lost and found offices, and community channels in your area. We're not a government agency, but we work with the official channels you'd contact anyway, saving you time and ensuring your report reaches the right places. Police departments and municipal offices continue to hold lost property and manage reports as they always have.
