How ReportLost works in Woodstock
You report what you've lost
Tell us what went missing, where you last had it, and when. We gather the details needed to connect with the right Woodstock authorities and community channels.
We route it to the right places
Your report reaches the Woodstock Police Department, City Hall, and Cherokee County Animal Shelter if needed. We also alert local lost and found groups so community members know to watch for it.
Automated monitoring finds matches for you
We scan Facebook groups, Reddit posts, local marketplaces, and community alerts daily for months, comparing descriptions, locations, and dates. You get an alert the moment we spot something credible, so you don't have to check manually every day.
Where to report a lost item in Woodstock
Your complete local lost and found directory
Woodstock Police Department
The Police Department Records Division can file a lost item report and add details to local systems. They're open weekdays 8 am to 5 pm. We take this step for you, so you don't have to make the call yourself.

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport
If you lost something at ATL or on the way to or from Woodstock, the airport lost and found office is located in the Domestic Terminal Atrium on the third floor. We'll prepare your report with their Lost Item Report requirements so retrieval is straightforward.
Lost pet?
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet in or near Woodstock, the Cherokee County Animal Shelter maintains a lost and found database. The sooner you report, the better, as shelters hold animals for limited time. Community members in Woodstock also share alerts on Facebook and Nextdoor. File a priority lost pet report with us instead, and we'll notify the shelter and monitor local pet alerts continuously.
