How ReportLost Works
You Report Your Loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details needed to reach the right people in Sunset and the surrounding Miami-Dade area.
We Connect the Dots
Your report goes directly to Sunrise Police, Miami-Dade Transit, MIA airport, animal control, and active local lost-and-found groups. No need to call each place yourself.
Your Report Stays Active
For your entire search period, your report keeps matching against new found items, Facebook posts, and community alerts. You get notified if a match appears, so you don't have to check back every day.
Where to Report in Sunset
From police to transit to pets, here's what each channel does—and how ReportLost saves you the legwork.
Sunrise Police Department (Lost & Found)
Sunset is unincorporated Miami-Dade, but Sunrise Police handles this area. You can report lost items directly to their department, open Monday through Saturday. ReportLost tells you exactly which precinct covers your loss location and files the report for you.
Miami-Dade Transit Lost & Found
Lost something on a Metrobus or Metrorail in the Sunset area? Miami-Dade Transit keeps a central lost-and-found. Call or submit an online report anytime. We ensure your item description reaches transit dispatch so it can be matched quickly if it turns up.
Miami International Airport (MIA)
If you lost a wallet, phone, or ring at MIA, the airport's Lost and Found office is your next stop. Items are kept for a set period before being processed. We can alert you to the correct terminal location and recommended reporting window.
Lost Pets in Sunset
If you've lost a dog or cat, act fast. Contact Orange County Animal Services or call 3-1-1 to file a lost-pet report, and post on local Facebook rescue and alert groups immediately. For lost or found pets, file a priority lost pet report with ReportLost to reach shelters and rescues across Miami-Dade.
South Miami City Hall
For lost items in nearby South Miami commercial zones or public areas, the city hall office can direct you to the right department or advise on local lost-and-found policies. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Report Now, Search Later
The sooner you file a report, the sooner we connect it to the right hands. Once it's in the system, your item stays on the radar for months. No rush to call ten places—we handle the routing.
Report my lost item →Sunset sits in Miami-Dade County, a sprawling metro where lost items scatter across neighborhood streets, shopping centers, transit buses, and the airport. Whether you've lost a wallet on a local street, a ring at a community spot, or a phone on the Metrobus, reporting to just one place rarely reaches everyone who can help. Police, Miami-Dade Transit, and local animal services all hold found items in separate systems, and community Facebook groups buzz with lost-and-found posts every day.
ReportLost simplifies the search. File one report and we deliver it to Sunrise Police, Miami-Dade Transit lost-and-found, MIA airport services, and the right channels on social media. Better still, your report doesn't disappear after a week. It stays active, automatically cross-checking new found items and community posts against your description for months, so you can focus on life while the search continues behind the scenes.

Is ReportLost.org official or affiliated with Sunrise Police or Miami-Dade?
ReportLost is an independent service, not run by police or the city. We're a bridge that routes your report to the official channels (police, transit, airport, animal services) and community networks on your behalf. We file the report correctly so officials take it seriously, and your report keeps searching automatically for months—something official channels alone can't do at this scale.
