Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details that matter to the right people.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes straight to the Las Vegas Police Department, city lost and found resources, and relevant community channels so you don't have to chase them down yourself.

Where to search in Las Vegas
The places people usually find their lost items, and how to reach them
Las Vegas Police Department
The Police Department's Records Division handles lost and found items turned in or reported to officers. They maintain records during business hours and can advise on next steps. We tell you the exact details to include in your report and connect you to the right division.
City Hall & Municipal Services
Las Vegas City Hall can direct you to the appropriate lost and found office or connect you with the department that oversees the location where you lost your item. They're a good second point of contact if you're unsure which agency covers your situation.
Meadow City Express (Local Transit)
If you left something on a Meadow City Express bus, the dispatch office keeps lost items for a time. Call them directly to check, or let us know the route and we'll help you prepare the details they'll ask for.
Las Vegas Municipal Airport
Las Vegas Municipal Airport (KLVS) handles lost items reported at the airport. If you left something there, they'll have a record. For Harry Reid International Airport in nearby Nevada, separate procedures apply.
Lost Pet
If you're searching for a missing cat or dog, the Las Vegas Animal Care Center maintains lost and found records and works with local rescue networks. Time matters with pets. File a priority lost pet report

Report my lost item →Losing something valuable in Las Vegas, New Mexico feels isolating, especially when you have to piece together which police precinct covers your location, whether the city's lost and found system still has it, and which Facebook groups or community boards might have seen it. Each place works separately, and you're left piecing together phone calls and emails with no guarantee you'll find the right person in time.
ReportLost simplifies that burden. File once, and we connect your report to the Las Vegas Police Department's Records Division, the city's lost and found channels, and the community groups where locals actively post found items. Better yet, your report doesn't stop searching after one week. It stays active, automatically comparing new found announcements and marketplace posts against your description for months, so you can focus on your day while the search continues behind the scenes.
