Report my lost item →Losing something in Woodbridge means coordinating with several offices: the Police Department for general lost property, CTtransit if it was left on a bus, and Animal Control if you've lost a cat or dog. Each service keeps items for a set time before clearing storage. Without a coordinated report, items can slip through the gaps.
ReportLost simplifies this by filing your report across the relevant channels and keeping it actively searching for you. Once you've filed, your report remains in circulation for a full year, matching against found items continuously, so you can stop retracing your steps and let the system work.
