Where items turn up in La Grande
Each channel below has its own process. ReportLost routes your report to all of them at once.

If you left your item on a Union Transit bus or at the Greyhound station downtown, call their dispatch line during business hours to report and search their lost and found. We generate the exact details to include so your report gets to the right depot fast.

Items reported to the La Grande Police Department go to their non-emergency desk at 1109 K Avenue. Call 541-963-1017 to confirm your item has been found before coming in. If you found an item on Union Transit, contact them at 541-963-2877 to arrange pickup at their depot.

What should I do if I find someone else's item in La Grande?
If you find a wallet, phone, or other item, take it to the La Grande Police Department non-emergency desk (541-963-1017) or leave it with a business owner if it was found there.

ReportLost does the legwork of routing your report to multiple channels at once, the La Grande Police Department, community networks, and local social pages, so you don't have to make separate calls or posts. More importantly, your report stays active and keeps searching for a match automatically for 12 months. You don't have to check Nextdoor or Facebook every day, we do it for you and alert you instantly if something matches.

ReportLost is an independent service, not affiliated with the La Grande Police Department or city government. We complement official channels by making it easier to report and keeping your search active long-term.
