Check directly with the PMO at 703-784-1228 for current hold policies. Generally, unclaimed items are eventually inventoried or donated. This is why we recommend reporting through ReportLost immediately, which keeps your search active for 12 months even after an item leaves the base lost and found.
Can I report a lost item if I'm off-base but lost it at Quantico?
Yes. Call the Provost Marshal Office at 703-784-1228 or visit the Physical Security Lost and Found at 2043 Barnett Avenue, Room 78 (hours 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.). ReportLost can also file a report for you and coordinate with base and civilian authorities.

No. Civilians, contractors, and visitors can report lost items to the Provost Marshal Office or local police. ReportLost works for anyone, regardless of affiliation.
How does ReportLost coordinate with military lost and found systems?
We generate a detailed report, alert the Provost Marshal Office and other relevant military and civilian offices with the information they need, and post to community channels. Your report then stays active for months, automatically matching your item's description against new found items and social posts, so you don't have to check every day.
