Picking up Property

Prior to picking up property from the University Police Department, ALWAYS call ahead to make an appointment. Please call (415) 405-3881 or email updproperty@sfsu.edu to arrange a pick-up time. Normal hours for Lost and Found is Mon- Fri 9am to 5 pm, however, this is subject to change without notice due to collateral duties of the clerk.

Please note, without an appointment, we CANNOT guarantee that someone will be available to release your property. Bring a valid picture ID, such as a driver’s license when coming to pick up property.
