How ReportLost Works
You Report Your Loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details that matter most to put your report in front of the right offices. Whether it's a wallet left at a local café or a ring lost on Godwin Avenue, your description becomes your search foundation.
We Route It to the Right Places
Your report goes directly to the Midland Park Police Department, Borough Hall, NJ TRANSIT (if applicable), and active community channels. No back-and-forth on your end, no guessing which office to call. We know where lost items turn up in Midland Park and we connect you there.
Your Report Keeps Searching
For 12 months, your report stays active and searches for a match. Each new found post, community listing, and marketplace item gets checked against your description. You'll get an alert the moment we find something credible, so you're not refreshing Facebook groups or calling around every single day.

Midland Park's Borough Hall is the hub for local administrative inquiries, including lost items found on municipal property or reported by residents. We generate the exact details you'll need to file your report and point you to the right department within Borough Hall.

The Sooner You Report, the Better
The first few hours after a loss are critical. Once your report is filed with ReportLost, our team takes over the coordination. You can stop worrying about which office to call next, and your report begins its active search across all channels. Let us handle the routing while you focus on getting your life back on track.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Midland Park means juggling calls to the police non-emergency line, checking with Borough Hall, scanning NJ TRANSIT's lost and found system, and posting across multiple Facebook groups hoping someone spotted your item. It's fragmented, it's time-consuming, and items slip through the cracks because different offices don't talk to each other.
ReportLost simplifies the whole process. One report gets pushed to all the right places at once, and then we keep searching on your behalf for months. While you go about your day, your report stays active, matching new found items against your description automatically. If your wallet, ring, phone, or anything else shows up, you'll know about it immediately.
