Where Lost Items Go in Park Hills
From the police station to community groups, here's what to know about each channel — and how ReportLost bridges them all.
Park Hills Police Department
Items turned in to the police station are logged and held. The non-emergency line can tell you if your wallet, ring, or phone has been brought in, though the window closes quickly. ReportLost files the report for you and follows up directly with their records.
City Hall & Public Spaces
Items found in parks, public buildings, or city facilities are often reported to City Hall first. Lost items from Bennett Street, the glass factory area, or Bennett Park may end up here. We know exactly which department handles what and ensure your description reaches the right desk.
Metro Transit (St. Louis)
If you lost something on a bus (the #95 or another route), Metro's Lost and Found holds items for a limited time. Call them directly or check their form, but the clock is ticking. ReportLost ensures your item description is on file immediately with Metro's system and cross-references community reports.
