Don't wait to file your loss
The first few hours matter most. Getting your report into the system today, across all St. Anthony channels at once, gives you the best chance of recovery. Once you've filed, our team takes it from there, and your report keeps working for you for months to come.
Report my lost item →Losing something in St. Anthony means reaching out to separate channels: the police department, Metro Transit if you left it on a bus, possibly MSP Airport, and hoping someone posts it in a community group or on Nextdoor. Each place has its own hours, forms, and search window. By the time you've called everyone, days have passed, and your item may have been overlooked or given away.
ReportLost simplifies the whole process. One report, filed right now, reaches all the relevant St. Anthony services at once and stays active for up to a year, automatically matching your lost item description against new found announcements and posts across multiple channels, so you can focus on your day instead of checking groups every few hours.
