How ReportLost Works
You file your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details needed to get your report in front of the right channels.
We route it for you
Your report goes to Middletown Police, CTtransit (if applicable), relevant businesses, and local social networks. No more wondering who to call next.
Your report keeps searching
Throughout your entire search period, your report stays active and continues to match against new found items, online posts, and local leads. You get an alert if a credible match appears, so you're not refreshing browsers for months.
Where and How to Report in Middletown
The main channels that receive lost items. ReportLost alerts them for you, but here's how to reach them directly if you prefer.
Middletown Police Department
The Police Department at 222 Main Street keeps items found in public spaces and can file a formal lost property report. They're open 24 hours a day. We let them know which precinct covers your loss location and provide them with all the details they need.
CTtransit Lost & Found
If your item was left on a local bus or Zip Shuttle service, CTtransit holds items and processes claims by appointment. We guide you to the exact details they'll need and alert them to your loss if transit is involved.
Bradley International Airport
Traveling through Bradley? The airport's lost and found office and CT State Police maintain property found in terminals and on aircraft. Contact them directly for items left at security or on planes.
Middletown City Hall
The City's administrative offices can direct you to relevant departments or help clarify which local service handles your type of loss. City Hall is located at 245 deKoven Drive.

Ready to get your report in motion?
The sooner you file, the sooner we can connect you with the right channels and keep your search active across the community.
Report my lost item →Middletown residents juggle multiple channels when something goes missing: the police department, CTtransit if it was left on a bus, local Facebook groups, Nextdoor, and the businesses where the loss occurred. Each system works independently, so your lost item report can slip between the cracks, and you end up repeating your story across different phone lines and websites.
ReportLost simplifies that process. File once, and we connect your report to Middletown Police, transit services, local community networks, and key lost and found offices. Better yet, your report doesn't close after a day or two. It stays live for your entire search period (12 months), matching against new found items and community posts automatically so you can focus on your day instead of hunting manually across a dozen platforms.
