How ReportLost works
You report your lost item
Fill out a quick form with details about what you lost, where, and when. We gather the information police and community channels need to help you track it down.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes to the Lakewood Police Department (which serves Parkwood), relevant local lost & found offices, and active social channels in the area. No need to make multiple calls or file separate reports.
Your report keeps searching for a match
While you go about your day, your report stays active and continues to cross-check new found items, marketplace posts, and community alerts. You'll get notified the moment a credible match surfaces, so you don't have to refresh sites daily.
Where to report a lost item in Parkwood
Local agencies and channels that receive and hold found property
Lakewood Police Department
The primary law enforcement agency serving Parkwood. They maintain a lost & found for items turned in to officers or the precinct. Report property loss or stolen items through their non-emergency dispatch. We tell you exactly which precinct covers your location and what details to include.
Pierce Transit Lost & Found
If you left your keys or phone on a Pierce Transit bus, contact their customer service to report the loss and check if it's been turned in. Items are typically held for a set period before disposal. We can guide you on what to say and when to follow up.
Lost pet resources
If you've lost a cat or dog, contact King County Regional Animal Services or local shelters immediately. They hold strays and lost pets for a limited time. Check their found animal lists and alert nearby rescues. For faster, targeted help with lost pets, file a priority lost pet report and tap into specialized pet recovery networks.
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport
If you lost a bag, wallet, or personal item at Sea-Tac Airport (the nearest major airport to Parkwood), contact their Lost and Found office on the Baggage Claim Level. Items are held for a limited time. We can help you document what to report and when to check.

The sooner you report, the better your chances
Lost items move fast. Once you've filed a report with ReportLost, you can take a breath knowing your description is in the system and actively being matched to new found items. Acting today means your ring, purse, or phone enters the search loop while the trail is still fresh.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Parkwood means navigating multiple channels at once. The Lakewood Police Department, Pierce Transit, local animal services, online marketplaces, and community Facebook groups all handle found items separately. Without a coordinated search, your wallet, ring, or beloved pet can slip through the cracks between systems.
ReportLost shortens that journey. One report connects you to all the right places at once, and crucially, it keeps working for you. Your item description stays active in the search loop for 12 months, automatically matching against new posts and alerts so you're not checking back manually every day. Once you report, the team handles the routing, and your report continues to search while you focus on other things.

Frequently asked questions about lost items in Parkwood
How long does the Lakewood Police Department hold lost property?
Items turned in to police are typically held for a set retention period. Contact the Lakewood Police Department at (253) 830-5000 (hours: Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.) to ask about a specific item and confirm hold times.
What if I lost my wallet or keys on Pierce Transit?
Call Pierce Transit Customer Services at (253) 581-8000 or fill out their online lost & found form. Items left on buses are brought to the transit hub. Report to ReportLost as well so your description enters community channels and we can follow up on your behalf.
How long do animal shelters hold a lost pet?
King County Regional Animal Services holds stray and lost pets for a limited time (typically 3-7 days depending on intake circumstances). Call them at (206) 296-3936 or email LostPets@kingcounty.gov immediately if your cat or dog is missing.
Can I report a lost item online, or do I have to visit in person?
Many agencies accept online reports or phone calls. Pierce Transit and King County offer online forms. The Lakewood Police Department accepts reports by phone or in person. ReportLost handles all the coordination for you, so you don't have to call multiple places.
What if my item is found weeks or months later?
That's why your ReportLost report stays active. Found items posted on Facebook, Craigslist, and community alerts continue to be cross-checked against your description for 12 months. You'll be notified of a match even if it takes months to surface.
Is ReportLost.org official, or does it replace the police?
ReportLost is an independent service that works alongside official agencies, not a replacement for them. We route your report to the Lakewood Police Department and other local authorities, and we keep your item in the search loop by monitoring community channels and coordinating alerts. Police still handle theft investigations and property evidence; we handle the persistent, multi-channel search so you don't have to.
