How ReportLost works in Wethersfield
You describe what you lost
Fill in details about your item, where you think you lost it, and when. A watch, passport, ring, wallet, phone, keys, glasses, or anything else you need back goes into the report.
We route your report to the right places
Your information reaches the Wethersfield Police Department, Town Hall, and CTtransit lost and found services. We tell you exactly which channels are covering your item and what details they have.
Your report stays active and searching
For the full 12 months, your report automatically matches against lost items turned into these services and alerts posted online. You're notified of potential matches, so your item keeps getting looked for without you having to check back repeatedly.
Where to report lost items in Wethersfield
Below are the official channels that hold found property in Wethersfield. ReportLost coordinates with these services, though you can also reach them directly.
Wethersfield Police Department
The Police Department at 250 Silas Deane Highway maintains a lost and found for items recovered in town. We file reports with them where they accept third-party filings and provide you the exact phone number and procedures to follow up on your own if needed.
Town Hall & Municipal Services
Town Hall at 505 Silas Deane Highway may hold items found on public property or at municipal events. Contact them during business hours to report your loss or check for your item directly.
CTtransit Bus Lost & Found
If you left your item on a CTtransit bus, the transit authority operates a lost and found by appointment only, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. ReportLost helps you document what was left and provides the contact details.
Bradley International Airport
Bradley Airport, about 15 miles away, serves the Hartford-Springfield region. For items left at TSA checkpoints or on your flight, contact the airport directly or file with TSA. Items are held and can be claimed by phone.

Ready to report your lost item?
Once you've filed, your report stays active for 12 months. The system will automatically match it against items turned in or found and posted in the Wethersfield area, so you don't have to manually check every service each week.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Wethersfield means contacting multiple places, each with its own hours and procedures. The Police Department on Silas Deane Highway accepts reports, CTtransit handles bus items by appointment, and Town Hall may hold items from public spaces. Without a single central system, objects can slip through the cracks, and searching for a returned item requires repeated phone calls and visits.
ReportLost simplifies this by filing across all the right local channels at once and keeping your report active for a full year. Once you submit, the system continues matching your item description against new found property reports and online alerts in the Wethersfield area, so you can focus on other things while your search continues behind the scenes.
