The main services and how to reach them yourself, plus what ReportLost handles
Wright County Sheriff's Office
Report lost or found property to the non-emergency line. They keep records and can connect you with city-level systems. We tell you which precinct covers your loss location and generate the details you'll need when you call.
Rockford City Hall
Lost & found items from city buildings, parks, and public spaces are logged here. City staff can check for items turned in at their offices or nearby municipal locations. We point you to the right desk and include the info they'll ask for.
Metro Transit Lost & Found
Left something on a bus? Metro Transit collects items at their dispatch office and maintains a searchable lost & found database. Their staff can check your description against items received. We help you file the initial report accurately and ensure it's in their system.
Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP)
If you lost a bag, phone, ring, or bracelet while traveling through MSP, the airport's Lost & Found office on the valet level of Terminal 1 holds items for up to 30 days. Check the main line or file a claim with your airline if applicable.
Lost & Found Pets
If your cat, dog, or other pet is missing in Rockford or Sherburne County, contact local animal control and shelters immediately. They work around the clock to reunite lost pets with their families. If you found a stray, they can help identify the owner. File a priority lost pet report with ReportLost to alert the community instantly.

Report my lost item →Losing something in Rockford can feel helpless. Whether it's a wallet left at a local shop, a ring misplaced near Main Street, keys dropped at City Hall, or a beloved pet gone missing, each location and service has its own lost & found process. Wright County Sheriff's Office handles reports, Rockford City Hall has separate records, Metro Transit operates its own desk for bus items, and animal services maintain their own channels. Calling each one, posting manually in Facebook groups, and refreshing Nextdoor every morning exhausts you—and critical leads slip past.
ReportLost simplifies this by doing the legwork for you. File one report, and we notify the right authorities, post to the community groups where locals actually look, and keep your report active and searching in the background for months. You can take a breath; your item isn't forgotten.

How does ReportLost know where to send my report in Rockford?
When you report, you tell us exactly where you lost your item, whether in Rockford's city limits, in Wright County unincorporated areas, or at a specific location like a bus or shop.

Is ReportLost.org official, or does it replace calling the police?
ReportLost is an independent service that works alongside official channels. We don't replace the police or city services, we amplify them.
