How ReportLost Works

📋

You tell us what you lost

Describe your item, where and when you lost it, and any identifying details. We collect the right information the first time, so nothing gets lost in translation.

🔄

We connect you with the right places

Your report goes to the Bartonville Police Department, CityLink's lost and found office, local animal services if needed, and community groups watching for lost items. You don't have to call everyone yourself.

🔍

Your report keeps searching for a match

While you go about your day, your report stays active and continues to be checked against new found items, community posts, and local listings. We alert you if a match shows up, so you're not refreshing Facebook groups every morning.

Losing something in Bartonville means reaching out to the police, checking the bus company's lost and found, scanning social media groups, and hoping someone from the community saw it. It's scattered, time-consuming, and easy to miss a lead. The local systems don't talk to each other, and a found wallet or ring might sit unclaimed because the person who found it posted it once on Facebook and moved on.

ReportLost simplifies that. One report filed through us reaches the Bartonville Police Department, CityLink Transit's lost and found office, local animal services, and the community groups where lost items are reported. And here's the difference: your report stays active for your entire search period, continuously checking against new found items and posts so you don't have to monitor everything yourself every day.

CityLink's Lost and Found holds items for 30 days at their Transit Center office in Peoria (407 SW Adams). Call (309) 681-2311 to report or check for your item. We make sure this office gets your report so they know to look for it.

Can I search for my lost item myself without using ReportLost?

Yes. You can contact the Bartonville Police Department at (309) 697-2323, check with CityLink directly, and post in local Facebook groups and Nextdoor. But ReportLost does all that routing and keeps your report active for months, so you don't have to check back constantly.

Is ReportLost.org official or approved by Bartonville Police?

ReportLost is an independent service, not part of the police department. However, we route your information directly to the official channels that handle lost property in Bartonville (police, transit, animal control, etc.). We don't replace their systems; we connect you to them and keep your search active longer than you could do alone.
