How ReportLost Works
You describe your loss
Tell us what you lost, where you last had it, and when. We collect the details that matter most to search teams.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes to the Shalimar Police Department, relevant city offices, and gets shared across community networks in Lake Lorraine and surrounding areas.
Your report keeps searching for matches
For 12 months, your report stays live and checks against new found item posts, police property lists, and community announcements. You get alerted the moment a match appears, so you don't have to search every day yourself.
Where to report your loss in Lake Lorraine
These channels work, but ReportLost coordinates them for you.
Shalimar Police Department
The main authority handling lost and found reports for Lake Lorraine. File a report directly, and we ensure your description reaches them with all the right details. Property and evidence are retained according to Florida state law.
City of Shalimar Administration
City Hall can direct you to the right department for lost items found in municipal spaces, parks, or public facilities. We know which office to contact based on your loss location.
Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport (VPS)
If you lost an item in the terminal or during travel through VPS, the airport lost and found is your destination. Call or email their office during business hours (Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM) to report or claim found items.
Lost or found a pet
Okaloosa County animal control and the community network of pet rescue groups move quickly. Post immediately and check shelters daily, but also file a priority lost pet report with ReportLost to broadcast across all local rescue networks at once.

The sooner you report, the sooner we search.
Every moment counts when an item is fresh in the community's mind. Start your report now, and we take it from there, keeping your description in rotation across police, city services, and social channels for as long as you need.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Lake Lorraine means navigating between police records, city property departments, community Facebook groups, and online marketplaces, all working separately from each other. A wallet, ring, or phone can slip through the cracks while you're making calls and reposting on Nextdoor.
ReportLost bundles your report once and feeds it to every relevant channel in the area. The real difference: your report doesn't stop searching after a week or a month. It stays active across the entire search period, automatically checking new found items and community posts, so the moment someone matches your description, you're notified. No daily checking required on your end, no hoping you stumbled on the right Facebook group.
