Get your report working for you
The sooner you file, the sooner your report can start matching against found items and community posts. Once you've reported, you can trust the process, and we'll alert you if anything comes up.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Baldwin means juggling calls to the police, checking with PRT transit, scrolling through Facebook groups, and hoping someone posts in r/pittsburgh. Each channel operates separately, and if you miss a post, the trail goes cold. ReportLost simplifies this by taking one report from you and routing it everywhere that counts, then keeping it active so you can focus on your day instead of your search.
Whether you left your wallet on a PRT bus, dropped your keys near downtown Baldwin, or lost a ring at a local shop, a single report can reach the Baldwin Borough Police Department's records, transit lost & found databases, community networks, and social channels all at once. Even better, your report stays active and continues searching for matches over the months ahead, automatically cross-checking new found items so you don't have to do the legwork yourself.

Is ReportLost.org official, or does it replace the police report?
ReportLost is an independent service that coordinates on your behalf. We are not part of the Baldwin Police Department, PRT, or the airport, but we work with their published channels and community platforms to amplify your report. You still have the option to file directly with any of these services yourself, and many people do both for maximum visibility. Our value is doing the coordination and keeping your report active and matching for months, so you don't have to check back manually.
