How ReportLost Works in Caribou

📝

You tell us what you lost

Describe your missing item, where and when you last had it, and any other details that help us pinpoint it. A wallet left at a downtown store, a ring dropped near the municipal airport, a phone on the bus, a dog missing from your neighborhood, a cat from a hotel, a backpack from the High Street area—we collect everything needed.

🔄

We route it to the right places

We notify the Caribou Police Department, City of Caribou offices, Caribou Municipal Airport if relevant, local animal control, lost pet Facebook groups, and community channels. You get a single report instead of making five separate calls.

🔍

Your report keeps searching automatically

For your entire 6 or 12 month search period, your report stays active and cross-references new found postings, community alerts, and marketplace listings. The moment a credible match surfaces, you get notified. No daily refreshing required.

⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.

The Sooner You Report, the Better

Filling out your report now means we start routing to the right channels today, and your lost item entry goes active immediately. Once that's done, you can breathe easier—we keep searching on your behalf for months.

Report my lost item →

Caribou is a tight-knit community spread across downtown streets, residential neighborhoods, and small businesses, but losing something means contacting the police, checking the municipal office, calling the airport if you flew out, posting to Facebook groups, and hoping someone sees your post. Each agency and channel works independently—your report fragments across systems, and the trail goes cold after a few days.

ReportLost bridges that gap. File one report, and we immediately route it to everyone who might find or have information about your lost item: the Caribou Police Department, City of Caribou, local lost pet networks, and the community groups where Caribou residents ask for help. Better yet, your report doesn't stop after a week—it stays active for up to a year, automatically cross-checking new found items and alerts, so you can move on while the search continues.

Is ReportLost.org an official city service or does it work with the Caribou Police?

ReportLost is an independent service that makes reporting to the police, city offices, and community channels faster and easier. We're not part of the city or police department, but we route your report directly to them and keep it active far longer than you could manage alone. We complement the official channels rather than replace them.
