Recent activity
Puerto Rico : a finder must hand the item to the municipal authority immediately, not to a police station, and the municipality publishes a public notice. Three months after that notice, an unclaimed item, or its value, is awarded to the finder, and an owner who gets the item back owes the finder one tenth of its value (31 L.P.R.A. §7966). (Civil Code of Puerto Rico, art. 749 (31 L.P.R.A. §7965))

How ReportLost Works
You report your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We collect the details that matter to local authorities and community groups in Cayey.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes to the Policía de Puerto Rico precinct serving Cayey, the municipal government, and active lost-and-found networks. You don't have to figure out who to call.
Your report keeps searching for you
For your entire search period, your report automatically compares new found posts, marketplace listings, and community notices against your item's description. You'll get an alert if a credible match surfaces, so you're not refreshing Facebook groups every day.
Where Items Turn Up in Cayey
Here's what to expect and where to report.
Policía de Puerto Rico
The Arroyo-Cayey-Patillas-Salinas police unit handles lost property reports and maintains records. When you file with ReportLost, we ensure your item description reaches the right precinct. If you report directly, ask for the specific precinct serving Cayey.
Alcaldía de Cayey (City Hall)
The municipal government office handles community lost-and-found inquiries and can connect you with local initiatives. ReportLost alerts them to your loss so they can assist if items are turned in through municipal channels.
San Juan Airport (Luis Muñoz Marín International)
If you lost an item at or near the airport before traveling to Cayey, the airport's lost-and-found office on the Arrivals floor can help. Standard processing takes 10 business days.
Lost or Found Pets
If you've lost a dog, cat, or other pet in Cayey, local shelters and rescue organizations are your first call. The Humane Society of Puerto Rico and Save a Sato Foundation cover the broader region. For immediate help and ongoing alerts, file a priority lost pet report with us.
Community & Social Networks
Facebook groups and local community pages are where Cayey residents post and share found items. ReportLost taps into these networks and keeps your item visible while you focus on your day.

The sooner you report, the better.
Every moment counts when an item goes missing, and filing early gives your lost wallet, ring, or phone the best chance of being spotted and returned. Once you submit your report to ReportLost, our system takes over—you've done the hard part, and now the search is active on all fronts.
Report my lost item →Losing a wallet, ring, or phone in Cayey means reaching out to the Policía de Puerto Rico, checking the Alcaldía, scanning multiple Facebook groups, and hoping someone honest posts what they found. Each system works separately, and if you miss a post or call the wrong office, your item sits unclaimed. Time passes, and leads go cold.
ReportLost simplifies this. File once, and we connect you to every relevant channel in Cayey while your report stays active, continuously matching against new found items. Once your report is submitted, you can breathe—the system is working for you, and you'll know immediately if someone posts a match.
