How ReportLost Works
You file your report
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details needed to reach the right channels in West Monroe and beyond.
We route it to the right places
Your loss goes to the West Monroe Police Department, City Hall, Ouachita Parish animal services (if it's a pet), transit operators, and relevant community groups. No more bouncing between offices.
Your report keeps searching
For your entire search period, your report remains active and cross-checks new found item posts, local marketplace listings, and community announcements. You'll get notified if a credible match surfaces, so you're not refreshing forums every day.
Lost Something in West Monroe?
Here's where items typically end up and how to contact each channel
West Monroe Police Department
The police department accepts lost item reports and maintains a lost and found. Their non-emergency line can advise where your item was lost and whether it's been turned in. ReportLost tells you which precinct covers your loss location and generates a report ready to file, saving time and confusion.
City of West Monroe
City Hall coordinates services and can direct you to the right department or help track items lost at city facilities. Staff can also help navigate whether your loss involves a specific city service. ReportLost ensures City Hall is notified automatically, so you don't have to make the call yourself.
Transit Services
Lost items found on West Ouachita Public Transit or Monroe Transit buses are turned in to dispatch or the operator. Call ahead to ask if your item was left behind. ReportLost contacts both local transit operators so you don't have to call each line separately.
Monroe Regional Airport
If you lost an item at or near the airport terminal, the lost and found is located in front of the rental car customer service area near baggage claim. Items are held for a set period before being removed.
Lost Pets
If you've lost a dog, cat, or other pet in West Monroe, the Ouachita Parish Animal Shelter is the first place to call and visit. You can also post on local lost pet Facebook groups and contact local veterinary clinics who often hear about found animals. To ensure your pet reaches the widest local network and stays searchable for months, file a priority lost pet report.

Ready to report your loss?
The sooner you file, the sooner your report starts working across all the right channels. Once submitted, you can rest easy knowing the West Monroe Police Department, transit services, and community groups have been notified automatically.
Report my lost item →West Monroe has multiple channels where lost items end up, from the police non-emergency line to community Facebook groups to local transit lost and found desks. But there's no single system connecting them all, which means a lost ring, wallet, or phone can slip through the cracks while you're trying to figure out which office to contact first.
ReportLost cuts through the confusion. One report covers all the bases, and instead of checking back manually, your report stays active and quietly works in the background, matching your description against new found items and posts across West Monroe's local channels for months.
