How ReportLost Works
You describe your lost item
Tell us what you lost, when, and where in Security-Widefield or nearby. We gather the details that matter: description, location, date, and any identifying marks.
We route it to the right channels
Your report goes to the Colorado Springs Police Department (which oversees this area), relevant lost and found offices, and we compose alerts tailored for local Facebook groups and community networks.
We monitor the web for matches automatically
For months after, our system scans Facebook, Craigslist, local marketplace posts, and community channels for 'found' listings that match your item's description, location, and timeframe. You get alerted the moment we spot a credible match, so you're not checking sites every day.
Where Lost Items End Up in Security-Widefield
Each location has its own procedures, but ReportLost coordinates them all at once.
Colorado Springs Police Department
Security-Widefield is unincorporated El Paso County, served by the Colorado Springs Police Department. You can report lost property through their online system or call the non-emergency line. If your item is recovered, it goes to their Property Return Office or Evidence Unit, where you'll need to schedule an appointment to claim it. We generate a complete report and know which precinct and phone number you need.

Mountain Metro Transit
If you lost an item on a local bus, Mountain Metro's Lost and Found office holds items at Transit Administration Customer Service. They're open weekdays 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 1070 Transit Drive. We tell you exactly where to call and what information to provide so your report matches their system.
Colorado Springs Airport
If you lost something at COS, the Airport Lost and Found office is in the Arrivals and Baggage Claim area. Items are held and can be claimed with an appointment through the police Evidence Unit. TSA also maintains its own lost items database if your loss happened at a security checkpoint. We point you to the right contact and know the appointment process.
Lost Pet?
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet in Security-Widefield, the Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region maintains a lost pet database and can dispatch an Animal Law Enforcement officer. Local Facebook groups like '719 Lost and Found Pets of Colorado Springs' are also active in the area. Instead of juggling calls and social posts, file a priority lost pet report with us and we'll activate both official and community channels.

Getting started takes two minutes
The sooner you file, the sooner our automated monitoring begins. Once your report is live, we're working for you across all channels, every day, searching for your item while you move forward.
Report my lost item →Security-Widefield sits in El Paso County, where lost items can end up scattered across Colorado Springs Police records, Mountain Metro Transit lost and founds, neighborhood Facebook groups, or local buy-sell-trade pages. If you lose something at work, at home, or while traveling through the area, you typically have to call the police non-emergency line, check the transit office, and scroll through multiple community posts yourself, often without any coordinated search.
ReportLost simplifies that. One report triggers alerts to all the right places at once, and then we take over the searching. Our automated system watches public listings and community channels continuously for months, flagging any post that looks like your item. You can breathe easy knowing the hunt is happening in the background, every day, without you having to refresh your browser or ask the same questions repeatedly.

How does ReportLost monitor Facebook groups and online listings?
Our system continuously searches public posts on Facebook groups, Craigslist, marketplace sites, and local community channels using your item's description, location, and date. When we detect a match that meets your criteria, you get an alert. This happens around the clock for 6 to 12 months, so you don't have to check sites manually every day.
Is my lost item covered if I report through ReportLost instead of the police?
ReportLost coordinates your report with the Colorado Springs Police and local lost and found offices, so your item is officially recorded. However, ReportLost is not an official government service. Insurance claims and legal matters still require an official police report, which you can file directly through the Colorado Springs Police Department online or by phone.
Is ReportLost.org affiliated with the Colorado Springs Police Department or the city?
No. ReportLost is an independent service that helps you report a loss and monitors the web for matches. We route your information to the official channels (police, transit, airport) and send alerts to community groups, but we are not part of any government agency. We make it easier to coordinate your search across multiple locations and channels at once.
