Where to report a lost item in Hellertown
These are the official channels you can contact directly. ReportLost saves you the legwork by reporting to all of them at once.
Hellertown Police Department
The police non-emergency line is your first stop for lost items. Officers log reports and can provide guidance on next steps. We tell you which precinct covers your loss location and generate the exact details to share.
Borough of Hellertown Administration
The Borough office keeps records of lost items reported by residents and businesses. They can direct you to specific departments (parks, public buildings, events) where your item may have been turned in. We point you to the right desk and provide context for your claim.
Public Transit (LANTA & Rabbit Transit)
If you lost your item on a local bus, LANTA and Rabbit Transit both operate lost and found services. Items are typically held for 30 days. We generate the exact information you'll need when you call to report.
Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE)
If your loss occurred at Lehigh Valley International Airport in nearby Allentown, the airport's Lost & Found Department holds items for 30 days. We help you file accurately and provide all necessary contact details.
Lost Pet
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet, time is critical. The Lehigh Valley Humane Society maintains a lost and found pet database and can help you file a report. Community groups on Facebook and Nextdoor are also key to reuniting you with your pet. File a priority lost pet report

The sooner you report, the sooner we start helping.
Filing your report today gives the Hellertown Police Department, Borough services, and community channels immediate visibility. The earlier your item is logged, the higher the chance someone who finds it will see your report.
Report my lost item →Losing a wallet, phone, ring, or cherished pet in Hellertown means juggling calls to the police, checking community Facebook groups, monitoring Nextdoor, and hoping someone posts your item. Local authorities, social networks, and private services don't always coordinate, which can mean your lost item gets reported in one place but never reaches the people most likely to have seen it.
ReportLost simplifies that maze. One report to us, and we make sure the Hellertown Police Department, Borough administration, and active community channels all know what you're looking for. Better yet, your report stays live for months, automatically cross-checking new "found" posts and listings so you're not refreshing pages every day. Once you've reported with us, you can focus on your day while the search continues in the background.
