If the item is of obvious value I turn it in at a police station or sheriff's office.

I also leave my name and address and make it known that once the claim period is up I wish to claim it if the proper owner has not.

If possible I get a receipt for the item I've turned in so I have some leverage to get it back. A case number if one is assigned is preferred.

For my area the claim period is 90 days.

Turning items in can be rewarding. I turned a camera in 10-15 years ago and it was claimed the same day. The camera belonged to a German exchange student and had most of his final pictures in the USA on the film in it. Talk about thrilled to get it back, he was!
