Ready to file your report?
The sooner you report a loss, the better the chances of recovery. Once you've submitted your report with us, you can relax knowing that local authorities and your community are looped in, and your report will keep searching for matches in the background.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Hinesville can mean a frustrating loop: calling the police non-emergency line, checking Liberty Transit if you were on a bus, posting in local Facebook groups, contacting city hall. Each system works independently, and there's no single place that coordinates the search or keeps your report active over time.
ReportLost simplifies that. File one report with us, and we notify Hinesville Police, Liberty County services, local transit, and community channels all at once. Then your report stays active for months, automatically matching new found items so you can focus on your day instead of refreshing group posts and calling around every week.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Hinesville Police keep a lost and found report active?
Hinesville Police maintain lost property logs, but items are typically held for a limited period before disposal. That's why ReportLost keeps your report active for 12 months; we continue matching your description against new found items and community posts even after the police holding period ends.
What if I lost something on a Liberty Transit bus?
Contact Liberty Transit at (912) 800-9318 or visit libertytransit.org/contact/. Describe the bus route, time of day, and your item. We help you prepare those details. Liberty Transit checks their lost and found and can guide you if the item is recovered.
How long does Liberty County Animal Services hold a found pet?
Check with Liberty County Animal Services at (912) 876-2164 for their specific holding period and adoption policies. Most shelters hold animals for 5 to 7 days before placement or other outcomes, so reporting lost pets immediately is critical. We fast-track lost pet reports to all relevant shelters and community networks.
Can I report a lost item without going to the police station in person?
Yes. You can call Hinesville Police non-emergency at (912) 876-3564 or file your report with us first; we'll ensure the information reaches the right local channels. Reporting with ReportLost also keeps your item searchable in community networks and with local transit.
What if my item was lost at a local business or shopping area?
Contact the business directly and ask if they have a lost and found. Report it to Hinesville Police as well so it's logged in the city system. We help you reach both the business and local authorities, and your report stays active in case the item is turned in days or weeks later.
