The sooner you report, the better
Filing a report today means we can start monitoring tomorrow. The first 24 to 48 hours matter, but our web scans continue for months, catching items that turn up later on Facebook marketplace, local buy-sell groups, or community posts.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Maple Grove can feel overwhelming. Whether it slipped away on a bus, stayed behind at a coffee shop in Arbor Lakes, or disappeared during a trip to MSP Airport, you're left navigating separate lost and found offices, filling out multiple forms, and hoping someone posts about it online. The official channels exist, but coordinating with all of them takes time and energy you'd rather spend looking.
ReportLost simplifies this. One report reaches the Maple Grove Police Department, Metro Transit, MVTA, airport services, and community channels simultaneously. Better yet, our system watches for your item automatically across the web for six to twelve months, monitoring Facebook groups, Nextdoor posts, marketplaces, and local forums so you can stop checking every day and let the network work for you.
