Where to report your loss in Westmont
ReportLost handles the routing, but here's what each channel does
Haddon Township Police Department
If your loss involves theft or you need an official police report, the department at 135 Haddon Ave keeps a lost and found. We route your report directly to the right precinct and help you provide the exact details they need to file and search.
NJ TRANSIT Lost & Found
Left your purse on a bus route serving Westmont or the surrounding area? NJ TRANSIT holds items for a minimum of 14 days. Submit your report to their system and we make sure you include the route number, time, and description they'll need to locate it.
Newark Airport (EWR)
If you lost an item at EWR during travel, report it to the airport's lost and found. They hold items and can arrange shipping. We can direct you to the exact office for your loss location.
Haddon Township Municipal Offices
For items lost at municipal events, parks, or public buildings, or to check if something was turned in to the township, the Clerk's Office can help. We tell you which office covers your location.

The sooner you report, the sooner the search begins
Items in NJ TRANSIT lost and found are held for just 14 days, and police departments rotate lost items into disposal regularly. If you've lost a wallet, ring, bracelet, or phone, filing a report today means your description is already circulating while the item is most likely still recoverable. Once submitted, your report keeps working in the background for months.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Westmont means juggling calls to the police department, checking with NJ TRANSIT if you used the bus, contacting local shops, and scouring Facebook groups yourself. Every organization keeps its own records, and most hold items for only two weeks before disposal. By then, if you haven't found your wallet, ring, or phone, it's often too late.
ReportLost simplifies that chaos into one step. Fill out a single report and we notify Haddon Township Police, NJ TRANSIT's lost and found system, nearby merchants, and active community channels in your area. The real difference: your report doesn't expire after we send it out. It stays live, automatically matching your item description against new found listings and alerts for up to a year, so you can stop obsessing and let the system work for you.

Frequently asked questions
How long does NJ TRANSIT hold lost items?
NJ TRANSIT holds items in its Lost and Found for a minimum of 14 days. After that, items are typically donated or discarded. If you lost something on a bus, report it as soon as possible and include the route number and date. We help you provide those details to speed up the search.
What if my item was left at a store or business in Westmont?
Call the business directly, but also file a report with us. We alert local shops and can include your description in community posts so other merchants know to watch for it. Most businesses keep found items for 2 to 4 weeks.
Do I need a police report to search for a lost wallet or purse?
A police report is not always required, but filing one creates an official record with Haddon Township Police and can help if your item involves identity documents or cards. We can guide you on whether a report strengthens your case.
How long will ReportLost keep my report active?
You choose your search period when you file: 6 months or 12 months. During that time, your report stays in our system and continues to match against new found listings, transit logs, and community posts. We alert you if a credible match appears.
What if I lost my phone or laptop?
For a phone or laptop, file a police report to create an official loss record, then report it to your carrier or device manufacturer (Apple, Samsung, etc.) so they can flag it if it's activated. Filing with ReportLost also spreads word to local community groups and lost-and-found channels in case someone finds and reports it.
Is ReportLost.org official, or does it replace the police?
ReportLost is an independent service, not affiliated with Haddon Township Police or any government agency. We don't replace police or official lost-and-found services; we work alongside them. When you file a report with us, we route it to the right official channels (police, NJ TRANSIT, etc.) and also activate a parallel search through community channels and our own monitoring, so nothing falls through the cracks.
