All items found throughout the airport such as bathrooms, restaurants, on an outside curb or on a sky train are grouped into categories, such as jewelry, electronics, or clothing. The items are labeled, dated, and stored in plastic bags inside holding cabinets.

An estimated 3,000 items per month are found in Sky Harbor. However, not all of the items are held by the TSA. Approximately 1,800 items are turned over to TSA, and the other items are sent to the city of Phoenix or the individual airlines’ lost and found departments.
