How it works
You report your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. Include details like color, size, or distinguishing marks. The more specific, the better our matching will be.
We route it to the right places

Your report keeps searching
For the full search period, your report stays active and continues matching against new found items, community posts, and local alerts. If a credible match appears, we notify you right away.
Where to report in Owosso
Contact these services directly, or let us coordinate it for you.
Owosso Police Department
The Police Department accepts lost item reports and maintains a lost and found. If your item was turned in to a local business or found in a public place, police often have a record. We tell you which precinct covers your loss location and what details to provide.
Owosso City Hall
City Hall coordinates with departments and can direct you to the right office depending on where you lost your item. Staff can also help route your report if the loss involves city property or services.
Lost Pets & Animal Resources
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet, contact Shiawassee Humane Society and local lost pet Facebook groups that cover Owosso and Shiawassee County. These groups stay very active and post frequently. We generate the right flyer details and post to the right networks so your pet gets maximum visibility. For a lost or found pet, file a priority lost pet report.
Owosso Community Airport
If you lost something at the airport, contact airport management directly. Small regional airports often maintain a central lost and found, and staff can help trace items left in terminals or on aircraft.
⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.
Don't wait to report
The sooner you file a report, the sooner it goes into circulation. Once submitted, your information is actively shared with local authorities and community channels, and continues matching for months. File now and let the search work for you.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Owosso means reaching out to the police, checking with City Hall, scanning multiple Facebook groups, calling animal shelters if it's a pet, and hoping someone posts about it on Nextdoor or community pages. The problem is that each office or group operates separately, and there's no single place that keeps searching for you over time.
ReportLost simplifies this. Submit one report and we connect it with the Owosso Police Department, local lost pet organizations like Shiawassee Humane Society, and active community channels. Better yet, your report doesn't go dormant after a day or two, it stays active and keeps matching your description against new "found" posts and alerts for months, so you can focus on your day while we keep searching.

How long does the Owosso Police Department hold lost items?
The Police Department's lost and found policy typically keeps items for a reasonable period before they may be donated or disposed of. Check with the department directly at (989) 725-0580 for their current hold timeframe and retrieval procedures.
Where do I pick up a lost item if it's been found?
If your item is located, you'll typically pick it up at the Owosso Police Department (100 South Water Street) during business hours (Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm), or from the business or location where it was found. Our report will tell you exactly where to go.

Does ReportLost replace calling the police or local services?
No, ReportLost works alongside official services, not instead of them. When you file with us, we send your report to the Owosso Police Department, City Hall, and local community channels so you don't have to make each call separately. You're welcome to contact them directly as well, but we make sure your report reaches everyone at once and stays active for months.
Can I file a lost item report if I'm not in Owosso right now?
Yes. You can file a report remotely, and we'll route it to the Owosso Police Department and relevant local offices. If you lost something specific to a business (hotel, store, restaurant), it's helpful to call them directly as well, since they may have already found it.
Is ReportLost.org an official service?
ReportLost is an independent service that helps you report losses and coordinates with official local agencies like the Owosso Police Department, Shiawassee Humane Society, and community channels. We're not a government department, but we work directly with these services to make sure your report gets to the right place. You always have the option to contact local authorities directly as well.
