Where Items Turn Up in Bellevue
Know where to report and what to expect.
Bellevue Police Property & Evidence
Items turned in to police, found by officers, or recovered in city limits are logged here. The Property Unit holds items and you can call to check if yours has arrived. We let you know which department covers your loss and the exact details to provide when you call.
Public Transit Lost & Found
Lost something on a Community Transit bus or at a stop in Bellevue? Community Transit serves the area and maintains a lost & found for items left on vehicles or at stations. Sound Transit (which includes express buses and light rail from nearby) also has a separate system. We file reports with both so you don't have to contact them separately.

Seattle-Tacoma International Airport
If you lost an item at Sea-Tac while traveling through or departing from the region, the airport's Lost & Found desk operates seven days a week. They hold items for a set period and maintain an online searchable database. We ensure your report reaches them with the right flight and terminal details.
City of Bellevue & Local Businesses
Lost at City Hall, a local mall, park, restaurant, or other public venue? Bellevue's Service First Desk can direct you to the right department, and individual businesses maintain their own lost & found areas. We help you identify which venue and provide the best contact method.
Lost Pet
Missing cat, dog, or other pet in Bellevue or nearby areas? Seattle Humane and King County Regional Animal Services operate shelters and accept found animals. Time is critical for pets, which is why file a priority lost pet report with ReportLost to trigger immediate outreach to shelters, vets, and pet-focused social networks.

The sooner you report, the better your chances.
Getting your loss into the system early means our monitoring picks up on 'found' posts faster and with more confidence. The first few hours and days matter, but even reports filed weeks later can turn up results. Start now and let the automated search take it from there.
Report my lost item →Bellevue's thriving downtown, shopping centers, transit hubs, and residential neighborhoods mean items go missing every day in dozens of different places. Between the Bellevue Police Property Unit, Sound Transit and Community Transit, city parks, and scattered local Facebook groups, finding your lost item feels like chasing leads across disconnected silos. Most people give up after a week.
ReportLost simplifies that chaos. One report, sent to all the right channels at once, and then continuous automated monitoring to catch 'found' posts on your behalf. Once you've filed, you can breathe easy knowing the search is running 24/7 in the background while you get on with your day.

Common Questions
How long does Bellevue Police hold found items?
Contact the Property Unit at (425) 452-6955 to ask about retention. Different items have different hold periods. ReportLost files your report with them so they have your contact details on record.
What if I lost something on a bus in Bellevue?
Community Transit operates most local service. Report to their Lost & Found at (425) 348-2350 or via their online form. If you used Sound Transit (express routes), contact them at 206-553-3000. ReportLost files with both.
Can I check multiple places at once, or do I have to call each separately?
You'd normally have to contact each separately. ReportLost does that for you in one submission, and then monitors all of them continuously so you don't have to check back daily.
How does the automated monitoring work?
ReportLost's system scans public Facebook groups, Reddit threads, local marketplace posts, and transit lost & found announcements repeatedly over months. When it finds a post matching your item's description, location, and approximate date, you get an alert with a link so you can follow up directly.

File a <a href="/report-lost-pet">priority lost pet report</a> immediately. ReportLost alerts Seattle Humane, King County Animal Services, and pet-focused social networks. Time is critical for animals.
Is ReportLost.org official or does it replace calling the police?
ReportLost is an independent service that makes reporting easier by routing your information to the right authorities and monitoring the web for matches on your behalf. It complements official channels but doesn't replace them. We work alongside the police, transit agencies, and shelters, not as a government service.
