Tell us what was lost, where, and when. We gather the details the right departments need to hear about it.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes to the Trussville Police Department, City Hall, local lost and found offices, and gets posted to community channels where Trussville residents are already searching.

Your ReportLost report stays active during this entire window and beyond, so if it's found and processed, we'll help you connect.
What if I lost something at a business in Trussville?
Call the business directly as soon as possible, as shops often hold items for a limited time before discarding them. ReportLost also alerts the right local businesses based on your loss location, so the owner or manager can flag your item if someone turns it in.

Your report stays active for 12 months, depending on your choice. During that time, we continuously cross-reference your item's description against new posts in lost and found Facebook groups, community marketplace listings, and local business reports. The moment a credible match appears, you get an alert so you don't have to check these sources yourself every day.
Do I still need to contact the police myself?
ReportLost files your report with the Trussville Police Department and relevant local offices on your behalf. You're welcome to follow up directly as well, but you don't have to. We handle the initial routing so the right people know about your loss from day one.
