Report my lost item →Losing something in Gresham Park means contacting the DeKalb County Police, checking with Xpress if it was on a bus, calling the airport if you were traveling, posting on local Facebook groups, and hoping someone finds it. Each office operates on its own timeline, and if no one reports it within 30 days, it may be discarded. That's a lot of friction for something you urgently want back.
ReportLost simplifies that. One report, sent once to all the right departments and community channels at once. More importantly, your report doesn't expire after a single check. It stays active for your entire search period, continuously matched against new found items, marketplace posts, and community alerts so you can focus on your day instead of refreshing search pages.
