How ReportLost works in Parkville
You report your lost item
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. Whether it's a wallet in downtown Hanover or a ring at a local shop, we capture all the details that matter.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes directly to Hanover Township Police, York County SPCA (if it's a pet), any relevant transit lost and found desks, and is posted to the channels where Parkville residents actually look: Facebook groups, Nextdoor, and community alerts.
Your report keeps searching for a match
For your entire search period, your report stays active and keeps cross-checking new 'found' posts, community listings, and marketplace items against your description. You don't have to refresh pages every day—we do that part, and alert you the moment a credible match appears.
