Why register?:
- $2 per electronics & $3 per bicycles.
- Items registered with the Police Department are affixed with a unique label that corresponds to their serial number or unique manufacturer-issued number.
- This information is kept in a database which enhances the ability to relocate stolen items.
- Registered items have much greater chance of being recovered and returned to their owners.
- The visibility of the label make registered items less likely to be stolen.
To Register Bikes and Electronics:
- Make a payment for Bike or Electronic Registration to the Police Department via CatDollars or Credit/Debit Card on MyBill, or in cash at the Cashiering Office.
- Ensure that you know your device or vehicle's serial number, as it will be required for registration.
- Visit the UC Merced Police Department or a Property Registration tabling event. If the item is too large to bring to us, call (209) 228-2677 (CAT-COPS) to schedule an appointment.
- An SSA will help complete the registration process by providing you a digital form and assigning your property a unique label ID.
