How long does Upper Dublin Police keep lost items?
Upper Dublin Police typically hold items for 30 to 90 days before disposing of them. Contact the police department at (215) 646-2101 to confirm the status of your item and how long they can hold it.
What if I lost my item at a store or business in Fort Washington?
Call the business directly first, as many hold items at their customer service desk for 30 days or more. If you need help drafting what to say or don't remember the exact business, ReportLost can help you identify it and prepare your call.
Can I report a loss that happened a week ago?
Yes. The sooner you report, the better, but items can sit in lost and found departments or be posted in community groups days or weeks later. A ReportLost report stays active and continues matching, so there's always a chance.
How will I know if my lost item is found?
Once you file a ReportLost report, we monitor local channels, community posts, and lost and found databases for a match. The moment something credible appears, we alert you immediately. You won't have to check Facebook groups or Nextdoor every day.
Do I still need to call Upper Dublin Police myself?
No. ReportLost files the report with Upper Dublin Police and other relevant local services on your behalf. You'll receive confirmation and can follow up directly if needed, but the initial reporting is handled for you.
Is ReportLost.org official, and does it replace the police?
ReportLost is an independent service, not part of Upper Dublin Police or the township government. We're a shortcut that handles the reporting legwork for you, routing your information to official channels and monitoring community networks. You're not replacing the police, you're getting a partner to make sure they hear about your loss and keep looking.
