The sooner you report, the sooner all channels are engaged and your description circulates. Once submitted, your report is in motion and you can focus on other things—we keep it active for the long haul.
Report my lost item →Homer Glen is a close-knit community, but losing something in a town that spans multiple jurisdictions—the Village itself, Will County services, local businesses, and parks—means your lost item could end up in several different lost and found offices. Worse, each channel (police, village hall, animal shelters, Facebook groups) works in isolation, so you may have to contact them separately and watch for updates yourself for weeks.
ReportLost simplifies that. One report, filed once, reaches all the right places at once and then stays active on your behalf. While the Will County Sheriff's Office and Village Hall handle your formal report, our system keeps your description in circulation across local community networks and shelter systems, matching it against incoming found items. You report, we route, and your case continues to search automatically—no weekly check-ins required.

How long does the Will County Sheriff's Office keep lost items?
Items are typically held for a reasonable period before being disposed of or donated. There's no set public timeline, so it's important to report quickly and ask when you call dispatch at (815) 727-8575. We ensure your initial report is filed promptly.
How long does Tender Loving Care Animal Shelter hold a lost pet?
Contact the shelter directly at (708) 301-1594 or visit during hours (Tuesday–Thursday, 11 AM–4 PM). Shelter policies vary; the sooner you report, the sooner they can flag your pet description in their system. We file your pet report immediately so the shelter and community networks are alerted right away.

How does ReportLost monitor community groups and posts for my lost item?
