How ReportLost helps you get your item back
You report the loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. Include any identifying details like color, brand, or distinctive marks. We gather exactly what the police and local services need.
We notify the right channels
Your report goes straight to the Wabash Police Department, City Hall lost and found, Wabash County Animal Shelter (if applicable), and active community groups where locals report found items.
Your report keeps searching
For 12 months, your report stays active and automatically matches against new found items posted by neighbors, thrift stores, and community members. You'll get alerted if a credible match surfaces, so you don't have to check every day.
Where your report goes
We notify local authorities and community channels so you don't have to contact everyone yourself.
Wabash Police Department
File a lost item report or check what's been turned in. The non-emergency line is available for quick questions about your loss. We tell you which phone number to reference and what details the dispatcher will need.
Wabash City Hall
Items turned in at public buildings or during city business often end up at City Hall. Staff can also help direct your lost item inquiry to the right department. We make sure your report includes all the info they ask for.
Lost pet or animal
The Wabash County Animal Shelter maintains a lost and found database and checks for microchips. They're also active on the 'Lost pets of Wabash and surrounding areas' Facebook group where community members post found animals. File a priority lost pet report if your cat or dog is missing.
Community networks
Wabash neighbors post found items and pet sightings on Facebook groups and Nextdoor. Your report reaches these channels so locals see your item description and can alert you if they spot it.

Report my lost item →Losing something in Wabash means navigating separate systems: calling the police non-emergency line, stopping by City Hall, contacting the animal shelter if it's a pet, and scanning Facebook groups yourself every single day. It's easy to fall through the cracks between departments, especially when a week or two passes.
ReportLost simplifies all of that. File one report and we route it to the Wabash Police Department, City Hall, the animal shelter, and local community networks at the same time. More importantly, your report stays active for months, automatically searching for matches with new found items so you can breathe easier knowing the effort doesn't stop.
