Describe your lost item and tell us where you lost it. We generate the exact information needed for each agency in town.
We route it to the right places
Your report reaches the Glastonbury Police Department, town departments, transit services, and relevant local businesses. We handle the legwork so you don't have to contact each office separately.

The sooner your report is filed, the sooner it reaches the right departments and begins searching. Once submitted, your report works for you automatically for a full year.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Glastonbury means navigating separate systems: the Police Department handles reports, CT Transit manages bus property, Animal Control covers pets, and each business keeps its own lost and found. If you've lost a watch, passport, wallet, keys, or pet, you typically need to call or visit each office yourself.
ReportLost simplifies that. You file once, and we deliver your report to the right departments in town, tell you the exact steps and contact information for follow-up, and keep your report searching automatically for 12 months. Once you've reported, you can step back and let the network work for you.
