Where Lost Items Turn Up in Danville
Know the right places to report, and how ReportLost connects you to all of them at once
Danville Police Department
Found items, theft reports, and losses in public spaces are handled by the Danville Police Department at City Hall. They maintain records and can cross-reference with items people turn in. We file the report for you and confirm which precinct or department handles your loss location.
Lost & Found Pets
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet in Danville, Boyle County Animal Control and the Danville-Boyle County Humane Society are the first places to report. They receive strays, hold found animals, and coordinate with rescue networks. We generate the exact details to include and point you to the right contact. For a priority response, file a priority lost pet report.
Public Transportation
Lexington's Lextran bus system connects Danville, and items left on buses go to their Lost & Found. We'll let you know which transit service covers your route and what info to provide when you call or file their form.
Blue Grass Airport
If you lost something at Blue Grass Airport (LEX) near Danville, their Lost & Found office holds items for retrieval. Airlines and airport shops also keep found items. We guide you on how to report with the airport directly.
Community & Social Networks
Danville residents actively share found items and help reunite lost belongings through Facebook groups and community networks. We post your report to the channels where locals look and respond most, so word spreads fast.

Report my lost item →Losing a wallet, ring, phone, or beloved pet in Danville can feel overwhelming. Between the Danville Police Department, Boyle County Animal Control, multiple Facebook groups, and local shops where items get handed in, the responsible places to report your loss are scattered.

ReportLost simplifies this. One report handles all the outreach for you: your loss gets officially logged with the right city department, shared with the humane society if it's a pet, and posted to the community channels where Danville residents find and report lost items. Better yet, your report doesn't expire after a day or a week. It stays active for 12 months, automatically comparing new found posts and announcements to your description, so you can focus on moving forward while the search continues quietly in the background.
