Where to Report Your Loss in Rosemount
These are the official channels you can contact directly. ReportLost routes your report to all of them and maintains the alert for you.
Rosemount Police Department
If you lost an item in a public place, on city property, or believe it may have been taken, report it to the police. They maintain a lost and found system and file incident reports. You can call their non-emergency line or submit a request online. ReportLost determines which precinct or unit covers your loss location and ensures your report reaches the right desk.
City of Rosemount
City Hall and the City Clerk's office handle administrative records and general lost and found inquiries for items lost at city facilities or events. They can also direct you to the appropriate department. ReportLost generates the exact information to include so your report is complete and routed efficiently.
Metro Transit & Public Transportation
If you lost an item on a Metro Transit bus or at a station in the Rosemount area, contact Metro Transit's Lost and Found office. Items are held at their customer service center and searchable by description. Reporting quickly increases the chance your item is still there. ReportLost points you to the right transit authority based on your loss location.
Lost Pet
If you've lost a cat or dog, contact Rosemount Animal Control immediately, then reach out to the Animal Humane Society and local lost pet Facebook groups. Time is critical with missing pets. ReportLost can file a priority lost pet report that alerts all relevant shelters and rescues in the region.
Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP) Airport
If you lost something while traveling through MSP Airport, call their Lost and Found office on the valet level of Terminal 1 during business hours. Items are held for a set period and searchable by description. ReportLost can help you gather the flight and terminal details to speed up the search.

Start Your Report Now
The sooner you file a report, the sooner it goes to the right places and begins matching against found items. Waiting reduces the window of opportunity, but filing today means your report stays active and searching for you for the next 12 months.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Rosemount means contacting multiple offices separately: the Rosemount Police Department, the City Clerk, possibly Metro Transit, and hoping a Facebook group member spots it. Each channel works independently, and if you miss a post or update, the lead goes cold. The real challenge isn't the places to report, it's keeping your loss visible and actively matched across all of them for long enough to find it.
ReportLost simplifies this. You file one report with us, and we notify every relevant local authority and community channel for you, then keep your report active in the background for 12 months. You don't need to become a detective checking pages every morning, because our system continuously matches new found item alerts and posts against your description. Once you report, you can focus on other things while we help ensure your loss gets the attention it deserves.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the Rosemount Police Department hold lost and found items?

Check with the Rosemount Police Department directly at 651-322-2323 for specifics on your loss. With ReportLost, your report stays active for 12 months, so even if the police clear their inventory, we continue matching new found posts.
How long does Metro Transit keep lost items?
Metro Transit holds lost and found items at their Customer Service Office and keeps most items for a set retention period. Call them at the number on their Lost and Found page or check online. ReportLost can file your report with Metro Transit and keep alerting you to any matches throughout your search period.
Can I report a lost item even if I'm not sure exactly where I lost it?
Yes. If you remember a general area or time, you can still file a report with ReportLost. We'll help you describe the loss as accurately as possible and send it to the most relevant departments. Even a partial location is better than no report, because it keeps the item in the system for local responders and community members to see.
What happens if my lost item is found after I report it with ReportLost?
If someone reports a found item matching your description through one of the channels we notify, you'll receive an alert. We automatically match descriptions and notify you so you can follow up. You'll also be able to contact the finder directly through the channel where the match was identified.
How does ReportLost keep my report active for months?

Rather than you checking Facebook groups or calling each day, we monitor for credible matches and alert you immediately. Your report stays in the system for 12 months.
Is ReportLost an official government agency?
No. ReportLost is an independent service that helps you report lost items to official channels (police, city services, transit, shelters) and maintains an active alert system on your behalf. We don't replace the police or government agencies, we work alongside them. When you report with us, your information goes to the official departments and community channels, and we keep your report actively searching for you in the background.
