⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.
The sooner you report, the sooner we start searching.
Every hour counts when an item is fresh and in someone's hands. Once you file with ReportLost, we take over the coordination, contact the right departments, and begin matching your description against new found items. You can take a breath while we work.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Gladstone means navigating separate channels: the police department, animal control, RideKC if it was on a bus, local Facebook groups, and the airport if you traveled through Kansas City. Each has its own process and timeline, and nothing ties them together. By the time you've contacted everyone and checked every group daily, precious time has passed.
ReportLost simplifies this entirely. You submit once, we coordinate with every relevant Gladstone office and service, and your report remains active month after month, continuously seeking a match while you move forward. No daily checking required, no wondering if you missed a post, no starting the search over with a new group.
