How it works
You report your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. Include details like color, size, and any identifying marks. Takes just a few minutes.
We notify the right places
Your report goes directly to the Louisville Police Department, city offices, local shops and venues, and gets posted to relevant community groups so your neighbors are watching too.
Your report keeps searching for you
Rather than refreshing Facebook groups or calling shelters weekly, your active report automatically matches new found item notices and lost & found posts throughout your search period. We alert you immediately if a match appears.
Where to report in Louisville
Your lost item may end up in several places. We tell you where and make reporting easy.
Louisville Police Department
The Police Department accepts lost and found reports and can advise on recovery options depending on where your item was lost. We route your report directly to them so you don't have to explain everything twice.
City of Louisville
Items lost at City Hall or during municipal events may be held here. We ensure your report reaches the right city department so they know what to look for if something comes in.
Local shops & public spaces
Wallets, phones, and rings are often turned in to business owners and venue managers. We generate a concise missing item description you can share with shops, restaurants, and community gathering spots.
Lost pet? Urgent priority
If you've lost a dog, cat, or other pet in Louisville, time matters. Local shelters and rescue networks hold animals for a limited time. Report quickly and get connected to the right rescuers. File a priority lost pet report

Questions about lost items in Louisville
How long does the Police Department hold lost items?
Contact the Louisville Police Department at 303-441-4444 to ask about their current storage period for lost and found items. Policies can vary, so confirming quickly helps you understand your timeline. That's why ReportLost keeps your report active for months, so you're covered even if an item resurfaces later.
Can I file a lost item report in person at the Police Department?
Yes. The Louisville Police Department is located at 749 Main Street, Louisville, CO 80027. You can also call 303-441-4444 for non-emergency reports. ReportLost notifies them on your behalf so they're aware while you pursue other avenues simultaneously.
What if my lost item ends up in a private business?
Many shops and restaurants keep lost items at the register for a limited time before donating or discarding them. We help you generate a clear description and know which local businesses to contact. This speeds things up way more than searching each place individually.
How often are the Facebook lost and found groups checked?
Local groups like Boulder County pets lost and found are active daily, but checking them yourself every morning is tedious. We post your report to these networks and monitor for matches automatically, alerting you the moment something relevant appears.
How long does ReportLost keep searching for my item?
Your report stays active for either 12 months depending on the option you choose. During that entire period, we're cross-checking new found item posts, lost and found updates, and community posts against your description. You get an alert immediately if a credible match shows up, so you're never out of the loop.
Is ReportLost.org official or affiliated with the Louisville Police Department?
ReportLost is an independent service that complements official channels. We're not part of the police department or city government, but we work with them by routing reports to the correct departments. We handle the legwork of notifying multiple agencies and community channels simultaneously, which official channels don't do as a standard service. Think of us as your personal coordinator for lost item recovery.
