Lost something in College Park? Here is where to report it.
One report sends your loss details to the College Park Police Department, City Hall, Fulton County Animal Services, and active local social channels. Your report stays active, continuously searching for a match across found items, lost and found posts, and community groups.
What did you lose?
If there isn’t an adequate suggestion, select “Other – My item isn’t listed” and enter the item’s category. You can provide details later.
Publishing your report is free and your details stay private. The assisted search is a separate paid service, described in the Terms.

How ReportLost works in College Park
You tell us what you lost
Describe your item, where you lost it in College Park (downtown, near the airport, in a parking lot, on public transit), and when. We generate the exact details needed for every local channel.
We notify the right places
Your report is routed to the College Park Police Department, City Hall, local transit lost and found services, and posted to Nextdoor and Facebook community groups. We handle the paperwork so you don't have to contact each one separately.
Your report keeps searching
For the entire duration you choose (12 months), your report stays active and cross-references new found items, community posts, and marketplace listings. You get an alert the moment a credible match appears, so you're not checking Facebook groups or local forums every single day.
Where lost items go in College Park
Know your options, but let ReportLost handle the coordinating.
College Park Police Department
Report property loss to the Police Department non-emergency line. They maintain a lost and found registry and can file a report at their office on College Street. We tell you which details to include and alert the department on your behalf.
City Hall Lost & Found
College Park City Hall holds items turned in by residents and city staff. You can visit or call to describe what you're looking for. We generate the key details so you know exactly what to ask for if you call.
Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport
If you lost something at ATL (the nearest major airport), submit a lost item report through their portal or call their Lost & Found office. Items found on flights, in terminals, or at car rental counters are tracked separately. We point you to the right department based on where you think your loss occurred.
Lost Pets
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet, Fulton County Animal Services and local shelters in the College Park area hold strays and accept lost pet reports. Facebook groups like Lost & Found Pets of South Fulton/Coweta/Fayette are also active. Want dedicated support? File a priority lost pet report with ReportLost, and we'll notify all shelters and pet networks in your area immediately.
Public Transit & Local Transportation
If you left your wallet, phone, or bag on a bus or shuttle, contact MARTA (the Atlanta transit system that serves the College Park area) or the specific transportation provider. Items are held at depots or terminals. We help identify which service to call based on your route.

Start your search right now
The sooner you report your loss, the sooner ReportLost can notify local services and begin matching your description against found items. Every day counts, and filing your report takes less than two minutes.
Report my lost item →Losing something valuable in College Park hits differently when you realize how many separate places it could end up: the Police Department, a city office, a local lost and found group on Facebook, a community message board, or someone's car. Each channel works independently, and calling them all takes time you may not have. If you're searching a week later, you're practically starting from scratch on each platform.
ReportLost bridges that gap. File one report, and we notify the College Park Police Department, City Hall, local animal services, and the social channels where College Park residents share found items. Better yet, your report doesn't expire after a day or two, it stays active for 12 months, continuously matching against new found items so you don't have to refresh your search every morning. Once you report, you can breathe, and we keep looking for you.

Frequently asked questions
How long will the College Park Police Department hold a lost item?
The Police Department typically holds lost property for a reasonable period. Check with them at 404-761-3131 (Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM) about specific holding timelines for your type of item. ReportLost keeps your report active much longer, so items found weeks later can still be matched to your description.
Can I report a lost item directly to City Hall?
Yes, you can call College Park City Hall at 404-767-1537 or visit in person at 3667 Main Street. However, they don't have a centralized lost and found database like the Police Department. ReportLost notifies both for you and posts your loss across all local channels at once.
What if I lost something at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport?
Contact ATL's Lost & Found office via their online portal at aatc.org/lost-found/ or email lost@aatc.org. They have separate departments for different terminals and services (luggage, TSA checkpoints, airlines). ReportLost can help you generate the right details to include in your airport report.
How do I search for a lost pet in College Park?
Contact Fulton County Animal Services immediately at 1-833-ATLPETS (1-833-285-7387) or check local shelters. Post on Lost & Found Pets of South Fulton/Coweta/Fayette and other pet networks. ReportLost's priority pet report system notifies all shelters and rescue networks in your area instantly, so you're not making a dozen calls.
What happens if I lost something on a MARTA bus or shuttle?
Contact MARTA's Lost & Found line at 404-848-3208 (Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM to 5 PM) or email lostandfound@itsmarta.com. Have your route and approximate loss time ready. ReportLost alerts transit services on your behalf.
Is ReportLost.org official, or does it replace the police?
ReportLost is an independent service, not affiliated with the College Park Police Department, City Hall, or any government agency. We do not replace police reports, we complement them. If your loss involves a crime, file an official report with the Police Department first at 404-761-3131. ReportLost simultaneously notifies official channels and keeps your loss visible across community channels for 12 months, improving the chances someone who finds your item will see it.
