How ReportLost Works
You report your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details needed to file with local authorities and community channels.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes to the Sheriff's Office, relevant transit lost and found services, and gets posted to neighborhood and social groups in Country Homes and Spokane County.
Your report keeps searching for you
For your entire search period, your report automatically matches against new found items, community posts, and local listings. You'll get an alert if a credible match appears, so you don't have to check social media and lost and found pages yourself every day.
Where to report and what happens to lost items in Country Homes
An overview of local lost and found channels and how to navigate them.
Spokane County Sheriff's Office
Report lost property to the Sheriff's Office non-emergency line or at your local station. Items may be held for a limited time before disposal. We determine the correct precinct or station for your loss location and handle the report details for you.
Community Transit Lost and Found
If you lost an item on a Community Transit bus, call Customer Service or file an online report. Items are typically held for 30 days. We make sure your description reaches the right transit service.
Lost Pets
If you've lost a cat or dog, report it immediately to the Spokane County Animal Services and post to local pet recovery groups. Contact shelters directly to check incoming animals. The faster you report, the better your chances. File a priority lost pet report with ReportLost to get your pet in front of rescue networks and shelters across the region.
City Services & Public Places
Check with the location where you lost your item: stores, restaurants, parks, or the Country Homes area office. Report to the property manager or location directly. We can guide you on which department to contact and what information to provide.
⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.
Don't let your lost item slip away.
The sooner you file a report, the sooner our system starts working. Most items are claimed or moved within the first few days. A report filed today keeps searching for you for months to come.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Country Homes means contacting multiple places separately: the Sheriff's Office, transit authorities if it was on a bus, neighborhood Facebook groups, local animal shelters if it's a pet. Each service has its own hours, contact method, and retention policy. By the time you've reached them all, hours have passed.
ReportLost simplifies this. Submit once, and we route your report to the Sheriff's Office, Community Transit's lost and found, Spokane County services, and active local channels like Spokane neighborhood groups and Nextdoor. Then your report stays active for months, automatically comparing incoming found items and posts against your description, alerting you to likely matches. You've done your part; now the system works for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do the Spokane County Sheriff's Office and local police hold lost property?
Retention periods vary. The Sheriff's Office and station lost and found typically hold items for 30 to 90 days before they may be donated or disposed of. Community Transit holds items for about 30 days. Filing a report early ensures your item is documented and tracked during this window. ReportLost keeps your report active beyond these initial holding periods.
What if I lost my item on Community Transit in Country Homes?
Call Community Transit Customer Service at (425) 348-2350 (Monday–Friday, 7 a.m.–6 p.m.) or file a report using their online Lost & Found form. Describe the item, the route, and the date. We'll make sure your description is complete and reaches the transit authority; we also continue checking for matches on social channels where transit-related finds are posted.
I lost a pet. Where do I report and what should I do first?
Report immediately to Spokane County Animal Services at 509-477-2532. Check their online listing of impounded animals. Call local shelters including the Humane Society for Southwest Washington. Post to Facebook groups like SW Washington Lost & Found Pets and Stevens County Home Again. The first 24 hours are critical. Use ReportLost's lost pet report to alert shelters and rescue networks across the wider region automatically.
I found an item. How do I report it?
If you've found a ring, wallet, or other personal item, contact the Sheriff's Office non-emergency line or bring it to the nearest station. If it was on a bus, call Community Transit. You can also post to Nextdoor or local Facebook groups with a photo. ReportLost users can search our active reports to find the owner directly.
How long does ReportLost keep my report active?
Your report stays active for 12 months, matching against new found items posted to community channels, social media, local marketplaces, and services. You'll receive alerts if a credible match appears, so you don't have to monitor these channels yourself every day.
Is ReportLost.org official, or does it replace the police?
ReportLost is an independent service, not part of the Spokane County Sheriff's Office or any government agency. We complement official lost and found channels by gathering your information, routing it to the right authorities and community channels, and keeping your report active during the search period. You should still file with local police and services directly; ReportLost handles the routing and ongoing matching for you.
