How it works
You file your report
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather all the details we need in one simple form, so you only describe your loss once.
We route it to the right channels
Your report reaches the Tipp City Police Department, local city offices, and relevant community groups. We handle the legwork of knowing which department or service covers your situation.
Your report keeps searching for you
For your entire search period, your report automatically matches against new found item posts, community listings, and local announcements. You get an alert if a credible match surfaces, so your lost item stays in play even while you move on.
Where lost items go in Tipp City
These are the main channels where found items are logged and reported. ReportLost files with the right ones for you.
Tipp City Police Department
The police handle lost & found reports and keep a record of items turned in. If your item was found on a street or turned in by a resident, the police maintain a log. We file your report with them directly, and we can help you understand which precinct or office covers your loss location.
City of Tipp City
The city's administrative offices can direct you to the right department if your item was lost at a city facility or event. Our report connects you to the city's main contact point, saving you the step of figuring out which desk handles lost property.
Local Transit & Bus Services
If you lost something on a regional bus, contact Butler County RTA or local transit providers directly. They maintain lost & found for items left on vehicles. We help you report the right details—route, time, and bus number if you have them—to speed up the search.
Lost Pet
Losing a cat, dog, or other pet requires immediate action and a different reporting process. Miami County Animal Shelter and local community pet networks are the core channels. If you've lost a pet, file a priority lost pet report and we'll route it to the right animal services right away.

Every hour counts when you first notice something is missing.
The sooner you report your loss, the more time your report has to search. Once your report is filed with us, we take it from there. You can rest knowing that we've notified the right services and your item is actively being cross-referenced against found items.
Report my lost item →Losing a wallet, ring, phone, or anything else in Tipp City means contacting the police, checking local community groups, and monitoring lost & found pages yourself every few days. Different offices handle different scenarios, and there's no central place where all found items get reported. That fragmentation leaves most lost items undiscovered.
ReportLost simplifies the search. File once, and we route your report to the Tipp City Police Department, the city's main lost & found channels, and active local networks. Your report doesn't expire after a day or a week, it keeps searching for a match automatically throughout your search period. You'll get notified if someone reports finding what you lost, meaning you can stop the daily hunt and let our system work in the background.
