The sooner you report, the sooner we connect you to the right places and put your item into active search. One quick report and the network gets working for you.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Blacklick Estates means navigating separate systems: the Columbus police, the Franklin County Dog Shelter, COTA buses, local Facebook groups, and Nextdoor posts all operate independently. If you lost a wallet, phone, ring, bracelet, dog, or cat, you'd normally contact each one yourself, wait for replies, and keep searching on your own across multiple platforms.
ReportLost simplifies that. File one report and we notify the right Columbus police desk, the Franklin County shelter, COTA's lost & found office, and connect you to the local networks where your neighbors are most likely to spot your item. Once your report is filed, it stays active and automatically searches for matches over months—so you can breathe and focus on your day while we work for you.

Can I search for my lost item on Nextdoor or Facebook before reporting to police?
Yes, and we recommend it for everyday items like wallets or phones. Many Blacklick residents post found items on Nextdoor and in Columbus Facebook groups. However, filing an official report ensures your item is in the system and gives you a permanent record. ReportLost posts to social channels too, so you get both coverage.
Is ReportLost official? Do I still need to contact police or the shelter?
ReportLost is an independent service that works alongside official channels—we are not the police or a government agency. When you file through us, we contact the Columbus police, Franklin County shelter, and COTA on your behalf using the details you provide. You remain the primary contact and can also reach out to these agencies directly. ReportLost's advantage is that we simplify the process and keep your report active across multiple networks for months, searching automatically so you don't have to.
