How it works
You report the loss
Tell us what you lost, when, and where in Yardville. We gather the right details to get attention from the right people.
We connect with local services
Your report goes straight to Hamilton Township Police, NJ TRANSIT if relevant, and community groups where locals actually spot and post found items.
Your report keeps searching for a match
For 12 months, your report stays active and cross-references new found item posts, marketplace listings, and shelter records. You get an alert the moment a credible match appears, so you don't have to check every day.
Where your lost item might be
And where we help you report it
Hamilton Township Police Department
Lost and found items turn up at the police station. We provide the precinct address, phone numbers, and exact details they need to log your report. Call or visit in person to check if someone has handed in your wallet, purse, or keys.
NJ TRANSIT Lost & Found
If you lost an item on a bus or train, NJ TRANSIT has a dedicated lost and found service. We route your report directly to them and generate the details needed for their online form. Items are held and searchable through their system.
Newark Airport (EWR)
Lost something at Newark Liberty International Airport? EWR has a dedicated lost and found office. We help you compile the right details and point you to their claims process. Items held for a maximum of 60 days.
Lost Pets
A missing cat or dog demands urgency and a different network. Shelters, local animal control, and pet-specific social groups move fast. We connect you with the right contacts and keep your missing pet alert circulating where people actively post sightings. File a priority lost pet report.
Hamilton Township Municipal Building
City Hall can direct you to lost and found services and community resources. We tell you which department handles your type of loss and the fastest way to reach them.
Community Lost & Found Networks
Locals post found items constantly on Facebook groups and Nextdoor. We get your report in front of these groups so residents see it and can connect you if they spot your ring, phone, or bracelet. We also monitor these channels for matches to your description.

The sooner you report, the better
Each day that passes, the trail grows colder. But the moment your report is filed and routed, you can breathe easy. Our team takes over the legwork, keeping your search active across all channels while you go about your day.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Yardville means navigating a patchwork of services, each with its own process. The police have a lost and found desk. NJ TRANSIT handles transit items. Local Facebook groups and community boards fill with found posts daily. PawBoost tracks missing pets. Without a central hub, your lost wallet or ring gets reported to just one place, while someone else might have found it and posted it somewhere else entirely.
ReportLost streamlines that mess. File once, and we notify Hamilton Township Police, check NJ TRANSIT channels, alert community groups, and keep your report actively searching across all the places locals post found items for months on end. You're not starting over every week or hoping someone stumbles on your post. Your signalment stays live and working for you, cross-matching new found reports against your description automatically, until your search window closes.
