How It Works
You file your report
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details needed to route your case properly.
We notify the right places
Your report goes to Anne Arundel County Police, relevant lost and found offices (transit, airport if applicable), and we alert local community channels watching for found items.
Automated monitoring finds matches
Our system scans social media groups, community pages, online marketplaces, and transit bulletins for the next 12 months. When a credible match appears, we alert you immediately, no manual checking required.
Where to Report a Lost Item in Glen Burnie
If you prefer to contact places directly, here's what's available. But ReportLost bundles all these steps into one streamlined process.
Anne Arundel County Police Department
The primary authority for lost property reports in Glen Burnie. You can file directly with their non-emergency line, or we route your report to the correct precinct and generate the exact information you'll need to provide.
Anne Arundel County Transit Lost & Found
If your item was lost on a bus within the county system, this is where items are held. We contact them directly so you don't have to track down the right extension, and we follow up if your item hasn't been logged yet.
BWI Airport Lost & Found
Baltimore-Washington International Airport, roughly 20 minutes from Glen Burnie, operates its own lost and found with extended hours. If your loss occurred at or near the airport, we ensure BWI receives your report. They can be reached directly or through their online claim process.
Lost or Found Pet
If your missing companion is a pet, contact Anne Arundel County Animal Services, check local shelter listings, and post in the active Lost and Found Pets community group. The 72-hour stray hold makes speed essential. For comprehensive pet-specific support and ongoing monitoring, file a priority lost pet report.
