How ReportLost Works
You Report the Loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details that matter most, so you don't have to repeat yourself to five different places.
We Route It to the Right Places
Your report goes directly to the Kirtland Police Department, relevant transit lost and found offices, and shared to the community channels where people actively post found items.
Your Report Keeps Searching
For the duration of your search period, your report automatically matches against new found items posted online, items turned in to local services, and community announcements. You get an alert the moment we find a credible lead, so you're not checking every group yourself.
Where to Report & What ReportLost Does
Here's what you can do on your own, and what we handle for you.
Kirtland Police Department
The Police Department accepts lost property reports and maintains records of found items. If your loss happened on a street, in a park, or at a local business in Kirtland, this is a primary channel. We identify which precinct covers your loss location and generate the exact details you'll need to include in your report.
City of Kirtland Hall
City Hall can direct you to the right department and sometimes holds items found on municipal property. We point you to the right desk so you don't waste time with transfer calls.
Transit Lost & Found
If you left your item on a bus in the Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) system, lost items are typically held for seven days before being released. We ensure your report reaches the right transit service and know the timeline for item retention.
Lost Pet
If you've lost a dog or cat, the Lake County Dog Kennel and local animal rescue groups are essential. The sooner you report a missing pet, the better your chances of reunion. file a priority lost pet report

Ready to Report?
The sooner you file your report, the sooner we can start connecting you with the right services and community channels. Once your report is in the system, our team takes it from there.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Kirtland means contacting the police, checking with transit if it happened on the bus, reaching out to local shops or venues, and keeping an eye on Facebook groups and Nextdoor. It's scattered, time-consuming, and by the time you've made all the calls, someone else may have claimed your item or moved on. ReportLost brings all these channels together in one simple report.
Instead of starting from scratch with each service, we generate the right details for each channel, tell you which precinct or department to contact, and file your report directly where it matters. Better yet, once your report is filed, you don't have to keep searching manually. Your report stays active, cross-referencing found items across police records, transit offices, and community channels for up to 12 months, so you get notified if a match appears.
