How ReportLost works
File your report
You provide details about what you lost, where, and when. We gather all the information needed to route your report to the right agencies.
We contact the right places
Your report goes to the Coventry Police Department, CT Transit, and other relevant local services. We tell you exactly which department handles your loss location and what to expect.
Your report stays active
For 12 months, your report continues searching for matches across local found item reports and online listings. You'll receive an alert if a match appears, so you don't have to check every day.
Where lost items go in Coventry
Each service keeps its own lost and found. Here's where to check.
Coventry Police Department
Items found in public spaces, on streets, and at town events are typically held here. The Police Department is open 24/7, and we file your report where they accept third-party reports. Call ahead before visiting with a description of your item.
CT Transit Lost & Found
Items left on local buses are held at the CT Transit office. Lost items are retained for 15 days, so contacting them quickly improves your chances. We can provide you with their exact contact information and the process to retrieve items.
Bradley Airport Lost & Found
If you lost an item while traveling through Bradley International Airport, items are held at the State Police Barracks. TSA items are handled separately through the federal system. Call the main line and ask to be directed to Lost and Found.
Local businesses and venues
Restaurants, shops, libraries, schools, and community centers keep their own lost and found areas. Items are typically held for 30 to 90 days. Contact the specific business directly if you remember where you lost your item.
Lost pets
If you've lost a dog or cat, contact Coventry Animal Control and check local animal shelters. The community also uses active Facebook groups dedicated to reuniting lost and found pets. File a priority lost pet report to get immediate help.

Ready to report your loss?
Once you file with ReportLost, we handle routing to the right local agencies. You'll have one clear starting point instead of calling around town.
Report my lost item →Losing something important in Coventry puts you between several separate services. The Police Department manages items found in public spaces and on local roadways, CT Transit handles bus-related losses, and individual shops, restaurants, and venues keep their own lost and found systems. Figuring out which department has your item, or whether it's been turned in at all, typically means making multiple phone calls.
ReportLost simplifies this process. You file a single report with us, and we route your information to the Coventry Police Department and other relevant local agencies. From there, your report stays active for a full year, continuously checking newly logged found items and local online communities so you don't have to repeat the search yourself.
