How ReportLost works in Newberg
You file your report
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details needed and prepare them for the right local agencies.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes directly to the Newberg-Dundee Police Department Property & Evidence division, Yamhill County Transit (if applicable), Newberg Animal Shelter, and community groups actively posting found items.
Your report keeps searching for you
For 12 months, your report remains active and automatically checks new found item posts and announcements across local channels. You'll get an alert the moment a credible match appears, so you don't have to check back every day.
Where to report a lost item in Newberg
These are the official channels. ReportLost connects all of them for you in one step.
Newberg-Dundee Police Department
The police Property & Evidence division holds non-evidence lost and found items. They keep records and can match found items brought in by the community. Business hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. We file the report with the correct precinct and Property & Evidence Coordinator on your behalf.
Yamhill County Transit
If you left your item on a Yamhill County Transit bus, call their lost and found line or submit a report online. Found items are held for up to 60 days. We provide the exact details to include in your transit report and can alert them directly.
City Hall and Public Spaces
Items left at city facilities, parks, or community centers should be reported to City Hall during business hours. We help you identify which department handles your specific location.
Lost or Found Pet
If you've lost a dog, cat, or other pet, the Newberg Animal Shelter and the local rescue community are your first stops. Report your pet to the shelter, and they'll add your description to their records. The community responds quickly through dedicated pet groups. File a priority lost pet report.

Report my lost item →Losing something in Newberg can feel frustrating when you're juggling calls to the police, the transit authority, shops where you visited, and Facebook community groups all separately. Each office has different hours, different procedures, and you end up repeating your story multiple times. Meanwhile, found items are posted across different platforms and can disappear quickly if you're not watching constantly.
ReportLost simplifies that chaos. You report once, and we notify the Newberg-Dundee Police Department, local transit lost and found, shelter services, and the active Newberg and Yamhill County community networks on your behalf. Better yet, your report doesn't go silent after submission, it stays live for months, automatically matching new found item announcements with your description so you can focus on your day while we keep searching.
