Where to report a lost item in Edgewater
Every place that might have your item, or can help spread the word.
Edgewater Police Department
The Police Department keeps a lost and found log and can note your loss for follow-up. Call their non-emergency line to report what you've lost and where. We automatically provide them the key details you've filed with us.
City of Edgewater
City Hall coordinates with local services and can help direct your report to the right department. They can also let you know if someone has turned in your item to a municipal office. We generate a concise summary of your loss to make your inquiry as clear as possible.

The sooner you report, the sooner we search.
Filing your report today puts it in front of the Edgewater Police, City services, and the community right away. Once we have the details, your report doesn't expire. It stays active and keeps cross-checking new found posts and local listings for as long as your search period runs. You can relax knowing the search is ongoing.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Edgewater can feel isolating, especially when the Police Department, City services, social channels, and local lost-and-found boards all operate separately. Without a central hub, your item can slip through the cracks, and you're left making the same calls and posts over and over, hoping someone saw it.
ReportLost takes that burden off your shoulders. File once, and we make sure the right people know about your loss: we notify the Edgewater Police Department's non-emergency line, connect with City of Edgewater services, alert the animal shelter if it's a pet, and amplify your report across community networks. Better yet, your report doesn't just sit there, it keeps working. For months, we cross-check new found posts and marketplace listings against your description. You'll only hear from us when we find something real.

Is ReportLost.org official or a replacement for the police?
ReportLost.org is an independent service; we are not part of the Edgewater Police Department or City government. We do not replace official reporting, but we work alongside it. We automatically route your information to the right local authorities (Police Department, City services, animal shelter), amplify your report across community networks, and keep your report active for months so you don't have to manually re-post or check boards daily. If you need to file an official police report (e.g., for insurance), you can do that separately at 386-424-2402 or in person at 135 East Park Avenue. ReportLost makes the whole process less fragmented.
