Increase Your Visibility
A free ReportLost listing makes your item searchable online and helps spread the word. If you want ReportLost to monitor the web and reach out to local services on your behalf, consider an optional paid search option.
Create a report →When you lose an item in Harwinton, start by contacting the Resident Trooper's Office and checking local businesses or places where you were last. The Harwinton Resident Trooper handles lost and found inquiries for the town, and Town Hall can provide information about item recovery procedures.
ReportLost complements these direct channels.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do businesses and police hold lost items?
Policies vary by location. Most businesses hold items for 30 to 90 days before disposal. Contact the Resident Trooper's Office or the specific place where you lost your item to confirm their retention policy and whether they have your item.
What should I do if I lost important documents or a passport?
Contact the Resident Trooper immediately at 860-626-7900. For a lost passport, you will need to file a report with the U.S. State Department or your nearest passport agency. Town Hall can provide guidance on local procedures.
Can I file a report for an item lost more than a week ago?
Yes. Contact the Resident Trooper's Office or the place where you lost the item. There is no strict deadline, but the sooner you report a loss, the better your chances of recovery. Items are often discarded after 30 to 90 days.
How does ReportLost help beyond posting a free report?
With Automatic Search ($12, 6 months), ReportLost monitors the public web and sends you an anonymous email if matches are found. Team-Assisted Search ($25, 12 months) adds manual outreach to local services, businesses, and community groups, and attempts to deposit your report with police and shelters according to their policies.
Who should I contact if I find a lost item?
If you find an item on public property or in a business, turn it in to the business owner or manager. For items found on the street or in parks, contact the Resident Trooper's Office at 860-626-7900. For lost pets, call Harwinton Animal Control at 860-485-2931.
