How ReportLost Works
You tell us what you lost
Fill out a quick form with details about your item, where you lost it, and how to reach you. Photos help, but aren't required.
We route it to the right places
Your report reaches the New Port Richey Police Department, relevant city offices, local animal services if applicable, and active community networks in one go. No more calling around or guessing which desk handles what.
Your report keeps searching automatically
For the full length of your search period, your report stays active and continues to match against new found items posted to local channels, marketplaces, and community groups. You get an alert if a credible match appears, so you don't have to check Facebook groups or Nextdoor every day.
Where to Report Your Lost Item in New Port Richey East
Whether you file your report through ReportLost or directly, here's what each channel handles and how to reach them.
New Port Richey Police Department
The police department keeps lost and found items for a set period before releasing them. If you lost your wallet, keys, or personal belongings in public spaces or businesses, this is where they typically end up. ReportLost notifies them automatically and generates the exact details to include in your report.
New Port Richey City Hall
City Hall coordinates with local services and can help direct your lost item inquiry to the right municipal department. They often have updated information on where lost property is being held and retention periods.
Lost Pets
If you've lost a dog, cat, or other animal, Pasco County Animal Services is your first step, and the local lost pet community groups move fast to help. ReportLost puts your missing pet in front of both the county system and neighborhood networks at once. For a faster, pet-focused report with priority routing, file a priority lost pet report.
Pasco County Transit (PASCO)
If you lost something on a local bus or at a transit stop, contact Pasco County's transit system directly. They hold found items for a limited time, and the sooner you report the better. ReportLost points you to the exact contact and bus route info to include.

The sooner you report, the better your odds.
A lost item sitting in a police lost and found or a lost pet circulating through community groups has a real chance of being claimed, but only if the person looking knows where to look. Once your report is filed, our team handles the legwork and your case stays active. You don't have to call back or repost every week.
Report my lost item →Losing something in New Port Richey East can feel isolating: lost wallets turn up at the police department, found rings sit unclaimed at local shops, stray cats get reported to animal control while owners search Facebook groups separately. The city's lost and found services work well individually, but they don't talk to each other, and neither do the neighborhood networks. By the time you've filed a police report, called City Hall, posted to three different lost pet groups, and checked Nextdoor, hours have passed and momentum is lost.
ReportLost cuts through that fragmentation. You describe your lost item once, and our team delivers your report to the New Port Richey Police Department, Pasco County Animal Services, local City Hall channels, and active community networks all at once. The real difference: your report doesn't stop working after day one. It stays active for your entire search period, automatically matching fresh found postings against your description, so you can breathe while we keep looking for you.
