File your report
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather all the details needed for a real investigation.
We route it to the right places
Your report lands with the Yonkers Police Department, transit authorities, animal shelter (if applicable), and relevant local channels. You don't make the calls yourself.

We scan Facebook groups, Nextdoor, Craigslist, PawBoost, and other community channels every day for 6 to 12 months. The moment we spot a credible match, we alert you. No need to refresh pages yourself.
Where to report in Yonkers
The right first moves, explained
Yonkers Police Department
The Yonkers Police Property and Evidence Section (60 Fullerton Ave) is where found items are logged and held. We tell you which precinct covers your loss location and what information to provide when you report.
Westchester County Transit (Bee-Line)
If you left something on a Bee-Line bus, call the lost and found line or report to the driver. We generate the exact route number, date, and time to include, and follow up with the depot on your behalf.
Westchester County Airport
If your loss happened at Westchester County Airport, submit a lost and found report online or call. We help you track your submission and check for updates regularly.
Lost Pet
The Yonkers Animal Shelter (open 11 am to 4 pm daily, extended hours Thursday until 7:30 pm) is the official city facility for found pets. We notify them immediately and monitor PawBoost, local Facebook pet groups, and shelter updates for your animal. If your pet is missing, file a priority lost pet report.

The sooner you report, the sooner we start monitoring
Filing today means our search begins today. Every hour counts when it comes to finding lost items before they disappear into storage or resale channels.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Yonkers means contacting the police, checking the bus depot, calling animal control, and posting in a dozen different Facebook groups. By the time you've made all those calls, leads go cold. ReportLost takes the work off your plate: one form, and we handle the official channels plus the continuous web search that finds items others miss.
The difference is automated surveillance. Most people report a loss and then check the same places manually every few days, hoping. We monitor social channels, transit databases, and community posts continuously on your behalf, crossing descriptions, dates, and locations to catch real matches. Once you hit submit, the search starts immediately, and you can breathe.
