For your entire search period, your report stays live and actively cross-references new found posts, marketplace listings, and community alerts. You'll get notified the moment a credible match appears, so the leg-work is done for you.
Where lost items go in Strathmore
Each agency has its own system. We handle routing to all of them.
Matawan Police Department
Strathmore is within Matawan's service area. Non-emergency reports can be filed with the police department's records division. We generate the exact information needed and know which precinct covers your loss location, saving you the phone tag.
Aberdeen Township Services
As an unincorporated community, Strathmore operates under Aberdeen Township. City hall or township administration may hold lost items from municipal spaces. We identify the right desk for your situation.
NJ TRANSIT Lost & Found
If you lost your wallet, purse, or phone on a bus, train, or light rail, NJ TRANSIT's centralized system tracks items by route and date. We prepare your report with all the details they need to search their database.
Lost & Found Pets
If your cat, dog, or other pet has gone missing, local shelters, vets, and the Monmouth County SPCA are your partners. We point you to the right animal services and help you post across pet-specific networks. File a priority lost pet report to activate our dedicated pet search network.
Newark Liberty International Airport
Lost something at EWR or during travel through Newark Airport? TSA, baggage services, and the airport's Lost & Found office each handle different items. We direct you to the right department and help you file a claim.
⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.
Don't wait to report.
The sooner you file, the fresher the trail. Once your report is in, our team takes over the coordination, and your item enters an active search cycle. You can breathe easy knowing the work is being done.
Report my lost item →Strathmore sits in the heart of Monmouth County, a community where people move through familiar streets, transit stops, and shared spaces. But losing a wallet, ring, phone, or other cherished item means navigating separate reporting channels, each with its own process, hours, and follow-up requirements. The Matawan Police Department handles non-emergency reports, NJ TRANSIT manages bus and transit losses, local shelters take lost pet cases, and community Facebook groups rely on word-of-mouth. By the time you've called three places, you're already tired.
ReportLost simplifies that chaos. File once, and we distribute your report to all the right local authorities, transit systems, and active community networks in Strathmore and Aberdeen Township. Then your report stays live for up to a year, continuously scanning for matches across lost & found posts, social channels, and transit databases. You won't miss the moment someone finds your ring or bracelet because your report is actively hunting for it, even while you sleep.

What if I lost something on an NJ TRANSIT bus?
Call NJ TRANSIT's Lost & Found at (973) 275-5555 with the date, time, route number, and a description of your item. Items are held for a set period. We include this in your report and prepare the exact details they need to search their system.
Do I need to contact the police myself?

How quickly will I hear back if someone finds my item?
If your item is turned in to a local business, police office, or transit lost & found, you should hear within days. If it appears on social media or a marketplace, we alert you as soon as our system detects a credible match. Response times vary by location and item visibility.
Is ReportLost.org official, or does it replace the police?
ReportLost is an independent service that coordinates reporting on your behalf. We are not affiliated with the Matawan Police Department, Aberdeen Township, NJ TRANSIT, or any other government agency. We file reports through official channels and amplify your alert across community networks, but we do not replace filing directly with police or transit systems. For theft, property damage, or insurance claims, you may still need an official police report number, which you can request from the police department directly.
