You report your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We generate all the details needed for the right places to know what they're looking for.
We notify the right channels
We route your report directly to the South Tucson Police Department's Property & Evidence office, Sun Tran (if you lost it on a bus), Tucson Airport, and post it to active community channels so your item gets eyes on it immediately.

The sooner you report, the better.
The first few hours and days are when most lost items are spotted and turned in. Getting your report out to police, transit, shops, and community groups right away makes all the difference. Once you've filed with us, our team takes it from there, and your report keeps working for you automatically.
Report my lost item →South Tucson connects you to multiple lost and found networks, but they don't always talk to each other. Lose your wallet on a bus, and the police don't automatically know. Drop your ring in a store downtown, and Sun Tran won't see it. With systems operating separately, retrieving your lost item often means calling around yourself, hoping someone has checked the right place at the right time.
ReportLost simplifies that. One report covers all the bases. The South Tucson Police Department, Sun Tran, Tucson Airport, and local community groups all get the information at once, and your report doesn't expire after a day or a week, it stays active the whole time you're searching. That means fewer calls, less stress, and a much better chance of being reunited with what matters.

Do I have to visit every place in person, or can I call ahead?
Calling ahead is smart and saves time. Police, transit, and airport lost & found all accept phone inquiries. Shops and businesses may vary, but most will check their lost and found if you describe your item clearly. ReportLost handles these calls and descriptions for you, reaching all the right places at once.
Is ReportLost.org official? Does it replace filing a police report?
ReportLost is an independent service that works alongside official channels, not in place of them. When you file with us, we make sure your report gets to the South Tucson Police Department, Sun Tran, and other relevant local services automatically. You're not replacing the official systems, you're making sure they all know about your loss at the same time. If your item was stolen rather than lost, we'll also help guide you on whether to file a police report directly.
