⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.
The first hours matter.
Getting your loss reported to the right places quickly improves your chances. Once you report, your item stays on the radar for months. No need to chase it yourself every day.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Newport can feel scattered. Your wallet might end up at the police lost and found, your dog gets reported to Animal Control on a different system, and a ring found by a community member sits in a Facebook group you haven't joined. Multiple places, separate records, no central way to know if someone found your item.
ReportLost simplifies this. File one report and we connect it to the Newport Police Department, Boone County Animal Services, Lextran, and the community groups where locals post found items. Better yet, your report doesn't stop searching after day one. It stays active for months, automatically cross-checking new found reports so you don't have to refresh Facebook or call around every day. Once you report, you can focus on your day while we keep the search going.
