You describe what you lost
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the exact details the police and local lost & found offices need to start the search.

Where to report in Forrest City
Below are the key channels and how they work. ReportLost automates the notification for you.
Forrest City Police Department
The Police Department's Lost & Found accepts reports for items lost in public spaces and can help match found items. We tell you which non-emergency number to call and what details to provide, or handle the notification ourselves.
City Hall
Forrest City City Hall can connect you with city services and direct you to the right department if your loss involves public property or a city facility. We can point you to the right desk or deliver your report directly.
Lost or found pet?
The Forrest City Area Humane Society and Animal Control work together to reunite lost pets with their owners. Report stray dogs and cats immediately, and if you've lost a cat or dog, submit details to both organizations. Have a lost pet? file a priority lost pet report with us and we'll get the word out fast.
Community groups
Local Facebook groups and Nextdoor are where Forrest City residents share found items and sightings daily. We can post your report to the most active groups so neighbors see it in real time.

The sooner you report, the better your chances
The first hours after a loss matter. Getting your report filed and routed to police, local services, and community channels quickly increases the odds of recovery. Once it's submitted, our system takes over the search.
Report my lost item →Losing a wallet, keys, ring, or beloved pet in Forrest City can feel sudden and stressful. Between the Police Department, City Hall, local shops, the Humane Society, and community Facebook groups, it's easy to miss where to report or who to contact next, and even if you do, there's no guarantee those channels are all talking to each other.
ReportLost simplifies that mess. File one report with us, and we handle the routing to every relevant local authority and community channel. The real difference: your report doesn't sit idle after you file it.
