How ReportLost Works
You file your report
Describe what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details needed for every local channel.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes to Prineville Police, local animal control if it's a pet, transit services if applicable, and gets shared with community groups actively reuniting lost items.
Your report keeps searching
For your entire search period, your report stays active and continues matching against new posts, found items, and community announcements. You'll get an alert if a credible match appears, so the work happens in the background.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the Prineville Police Department hold lost property?

What happens if I lose something on a Cascades East Transit bus?
Call 541-385-8680 or file a report on their Lost & Found form as soon as possible. Provide the bus route, date, and time. Items are held for a set period, so report quickly. We can file this report for you and ensure the right details are logged.
Where do I report a lost pet in Prineville?
Call the Humane Society of the Ochocos at 541-447-7178 or the Prineville Police non-emergency line at 541-447-4168. You can also post on "Prineville Lost and Found Pets" and "PRINEVILLE LOST & FOUND Animals & Things" Facebook groups. We alert all these channels the moment you file a lost pet report with us.
How long does my report stay active if I use ReportLost?
Your report remains active for 12 months depending on your selection. During that time, it continues matching against new found items, community posts, and local announcements. You don't have to re-post or follow up manually, we keep searching for you.
Can I search local lost and found pages on my own?
Absolutely. The police department, transit, animal shelters, and community groups all maintain their own channels. But juggling multiple sites, group pages, and phone numbers takes time. ReportLost coordinates them all in one place and keeps your report in front of these networks continuously.
Is ReportLost.org official or an alternative to reporting to police?
ReportLost is an independent service that routes your report to the official channels that matter, like the Prineville Police Department and local animal control. We don't replace those agencies, we connect you to them and ensure your report stays active longer than you'd manage on your own. Police reports and shelter registrations are still your foundation, we amplify them.
