Where lost items in Commerce typically end up
And how to report directly if you prefer to handle it yourself
Commerce Police Department
The Police Department handles lost property reports and maintains a lost and found database. For non-emergency reports, call the main line. ReportLost files the initial report for you and tells you exactly which precinct covers your loss location.
City Hall & Municipal Services
City Hall can point you to the right department depending on where you lost your item (parks, public buildings, city events). ReportLost generates the exact information you need to provide and routes your details to the right desk automatically.
Lost Pets & Animal Control
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet, Jackson County Animal Control should be your first call. Local lost pet Facebook groups and PawBoost are active communities where owners post sightings. ReportLost can file a priority lost pet report that reaches animal control and pet networks instantly.
Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport
If you lost something while traveling through Atlanta's main airport, the Lost and Found office in the Domestic Terminal can help. Contact them directly at the airport or by email. For items left on flights, contact your airline.

The sooner you report, the better your chances
Acting quickly gives the right people time to search, alert their networks, and check incoming found items. Once your report is filed with ReportLost, you've done the hard part. The team takes it from here, and your report stays active the entire time.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Commerce feels isolating. You don't know whether to call the police, check with City Hall, post on Facebook, or search independently across a dozen different platforms. The systems don't talk to each other, so you end up making the same phone calls and reposting the same description everywhere.
ReportLost simplifies the process. You file once, we route your report to the Commerce Police Department, City Hall, local animal control, and active community channels all at once. Then your report stays active for your entire search period, automatically matching your description against new found items and posts. You don't have to check back every day. We do the searching for you.
