Frequently Asked Questions
How long will the police hold my lost item if someone turns it in?
The Olyphant Borough Police Department typically holds lost property for a reasonable period, though specific retention times can vary. When you file your report, ask the department directly at (570) 383-1820 about their storage timeline so you know when to follow up.
What if I lost my item on a Rabbit Transit bus?
Call Rabbit Transit customer service at (800) 632-9063 or fill out their online Lost & Found form. Bus companies usually hold items for a limited time, so report it quickly. ReportLost can help you prepare a detailed description and make sure you have the exact contact information.

How long does ReportLost keep my report active?
You choose: 6 months or 12 months. Throughout your entire search period, your report stays active and continues to match against new found item posts, announcements, and community alerts, so you don't have to check every day.
Is ReportLost.org official, or does it replace calling the police?
ReportLost is an independent service, not part of the Olyphant Borough Police or any government agency. We complement official channels by making it easier for you to file a report and then keeping that report alive across multiple networks for months. You should always contact the police directly at (570) 383-1820 if you suspect theft or have other urgent concerns; our service is designed to help you organize and amplify your search.
