How it works
You report your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details that matter and generate alerts tailored to Perry's local services.
We route it to the right places
Your report is sent directly to the Perry Police Department, Taylor County Animal Control (if it's a pet), local lost & found offices, and shared across relevant social channels in the Perry community.

City of Perry & Taylor County
Perry City Hall can direct you to lost & found services and advise on where items are typically held. They also coordinate with other city departments. We guide you on what information to have ready and which department handles your specific situation.
