How ReportLost Works
You file your report
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details that matter most to recovery.
We route it to the right places
Your loss goes straight to the Bergenfield Police Department, local transit systems, and community groups actively searching. No more figuring out which desk to call.
Your report keeps searching
For 12 months, your report remains active and matches against new found items, posts, and lost & found updates across Bergenfield. We alert you the moment a credible match surfaces, so you can move on.
Where to Report (and Where We Route Your Loss)
Each channel below handles a different type of loss in Bergenfield. File once with us, and we notify them all.
Bergenfield Police Department
Lost items found in public spaces, on streets, or in parks are reported here. The police also coordinate with local merchants and property managers. We identify which precinct covers your loss location and file the report on your behalf, so you skip the call and the paperwork.
Non-Emergency: 201-387-4000|Email: police@bergenfieldnjpd.gov
NJ Transit Lost & Found
Forgot something on a bus, train, or light rail in or near Bergenfield? NJ Transit holds items and maintains a searchable database. We generate the exact details needed for their lost & found portal and file the report so nothing slips through the cracks.
Borough Hall & Municipal Services
Lost something at Borough Hall, a town meeting, or on municipal property? The borough coordinates with departments and local businesses. We know the right contact and ensure your loss is logged with the correct borough office.
Newark Airport (EWR)
If you lost something during a trip through Newark Airport, file a claim with EWR's virtual lost & found office. We point you to the right airport department based on where you think the loss occurred (TSA checkpoint, terminal, baggage claim).
Lost Pets
A missing cat, dog, or other pet needs a faster, more targeted response than a general lost item report. Bergen County Animal Shelter and local pet recovery groups in Bergenfield move quickly. When you report a lost pet with us, we help you connect with these channels and file a priority lost pet report designed to speed up reunification.

The Sooner, the Better
The first few hours and days after a loss matter most. Filing your report early with ReportLost ensures it reaches all the right channels without delay, and your search gets active coverage across the community right away. Once you've reported, you can focus on other things while we keep searching.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Bergenfield, whether on a NJ Transit bus, at Borough Hall, or somewhere downtown, means juggling calls to the police non-emergency line, checking the transit lost & found website, and scrolling through Facebook groups on your own. Different agencies, different systems, no central place to report once and have everyone notified.
ReportLost simplifies that. One report, filed once, reaches the Bergenfield Police Department, NJ Transit's recovery system, and local community channels automatically. Even better, your report doesn't vanish after a week. It stays active for your entire search period, continuously cross-referencing new found items and community posts with your description. You won't have to re-post or re-call every few days, because we're already doing that behind the scenes.
