How ReportLost works in Acushnet
You report your loss
Describe your lost item, where you last had it, and when. We guide you through the details we need to file a complete report, from a missing passport to a lost watch or set of keys.
We route it to the right places

Your report keeps searching for a match
For 12 months, your report stays active and continues to be checked against new found items posted locally. You don't have to monitor Facebook groups or call back weekly; we alert you if we find a credible match.
Where lost items go in Acushnet
Each type of loss has its own system. Here's what each office handles and how to file a report.
Acushnet Police Department
The Police Department maintains a lost and found for items turned in to officers or found in public spaces. They're located at 64 Middle Road and accept reports by phone during business hours. We tell you whether your item type is accepted as a third-party report.

Report your loss right away
The sooner you file, the sooner your report begins working for you. Once submitted, your information goes straight to the offices that matter, and you can stop worrying about checking dozens of places yourself.
Report my lost item →Losing something valuable in Acushnet, whether it's a ring, a pair of glasses, or important travel documents, typically means reaching out to separate places: the Police Department, Town Hall, local shops, or a lost pet group if it's a cat or dog. Each has its own procedures and hours, and items may be held for different lengths of time before being discarded.
ReportLost streamlines this scatter by taking one report from you and filing it with the relevant local offices, so you don't have to call multiple numbers or visit multiple locations. Once filed, your report continues to search for your item across 12 months, automatically matching it against new found items reported locally, and notifying you the moment a potential match appears.
