Don't let your lost item slip away
The sooner you report, the sooner your item can be matched with found goods and returned to you. Once you file your report with us, you can breathe easy, knowing that we're checking the right channels and alerting the community while you focus on your day.
Report my lost item →Losing a wallet, ring, phone, or other cherished item in Goldenrod means navigating multiple agencies, lost & found lists, and scattered community groups all at once. The Orlando Police Department, Winter Park Police Department, Orange County Sheriff's Office, and UCF Police all operate separate systems, and items can end up in any of them, depending on where you lost it. Facebook groups and Nextdoor posts move fast but disappear just as quickly.
ReportLost simplifies everything by filing once and reaching all the right channels at the same time, then keeping your report active to match against new found items weeks or months later. Instead of checking lost & found lists or Facebook groups every day, you file a report and let us handle the legwork of staying in touch with local systems and alerting the community. Once your report is live, the hunt continues automatically.

How long do police departments hold lost items in Orange County?

UCF Police arranges appointments for retrieval during business hours (Monday–Friday, 9am–3pm). Contact the specific agency as soon as possible to confirm your item and arrange pickup.
What should I include when reporting a lost item to the police?
Provide as much detail as possible: the exact item (brand, color, distinguishing marks), where you lost it (address or intersection), when (date and time), and how to identify it uniquely (initials, serial number, damage). We help you generate all this information and send it to the right place.
If I lost something at MCO airport, how do I check the found items list?
Contact MCO's Lost & Found office directly at the numbers listed on their website, or email them. Terminal A (Level 1) is open 7am–7:30pm, Terminal C (Level 1) is open 8am–4pm. Have details of your item ready when you call. Describe it clearly so staff can search their inventory.

Several Orange County and Central Florida lost & found groups are active, including dedicated pet groups. We post your report to these channels so your neighbors and community see it immediately. Many items are reunited through these groups within days.
How long does ReportLost keep my report active?
Your report stays active for 12 months, depending on which option you choose when you file. During that entire time, your report continues matching against new found item listings and community alerts. You don't have to check back yourself, we notify you of credible matches as they surface.
Is ReportLost.org official, or do I need to file with the police myself?
ReportLost is an independent service, not affiliated with any police department or government agency. We help you file reports and route them to the right official channels (Orlando Police, Orange County Sheriff, etc.), but we don't replace the police report. We supplement official systems by keeping your report active longer and posting to community channels so more people can help find your item. You're always welcome to contact police directly as well.
