How it works
You report the loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather all the details needed to file with local authorities and post across community channels.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes directly to the Hanahan Police Department, City Hall, and local lost-and-found groups where neighbors and community members actively search.
Your report keeps searching for you
For your entire search period, your report automatically matches against new found items posted in local channels, on social platforms, and in community networks. You get an alert the moment a credible match appears, so you don't have to check every day.
Where your report goes
Every report is routed to these channels and services:
Hanahan Police Department
The Hanahan Police Department records lost items and coordinates with local law enforcement. You can also report directly, but we file the report for you and generate the exact information they need. They operate from City Hall at 1255 Yeamans Hall Road.
City of Hanahan
City Hall manages lost and found items found in municipal areas and public spaces. They maintain records and can connect you with items turned in at city facilities. We handle the intake and paperwork so you don't have to navigate the phone lines yourself.
Animal Control
If you've lost a pet, the City of Hanahan's Animal Control team responds Monday through Friday, 10 AM to 6 PM. They coordinate with local shelters and search teams. File a priority lost pet report to alert them immediately.
Community networks
Hanahan residents actively post in local Facebook groups and community channels dedicated to lost and found. We post your report there so neighbors, regulars, and local businesses see it right away and can help spot your item.

The sooner you report, the sooner people can help
Every hour your lost item is missing, more people move through the spaces where it might be found. Getting your report out to the police, city services, and community groups right now means more eyes searching today, and your report stays active for months to come.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Hanahan means reaching out to multiple places separately: the police department, city services, Facebook groups, and local networks. Each channel operates independently, and the longer you wait to check them all, the colder the trail becomes. ReportLost simplifies this by bundling everything into one report that travels to every relevant channel at once.
What makes the difference is what happens next. Most lost-and-found systems require you to keep circling back, checking each page and group manually for weeks or months. With ReportLost, your report stays live and continues to match against new found items automatically, alerting you the moment something credible surfaces. You report once, and the search continues on your behalf.

Frequently asked questions
What's the fastest way to report a lost item in Hanahan?
Contact the Hanahan Police Department directly at (843) 747-5711 during business hours (Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM to 5 PM), or call the non-emergency dispatch line. ReportLost handles this for you and posts across all community channels simultaneously, saving you multiple phone calls.
How long does the police department keep lost and found records?
The Hanahan Police Department maintains records of items turned in, but you should check promptly. Items are typically held for a limited time before being disposed of or donated. Your ReportLost report stays active for 12 months, continuously searching local channels even after you've checked with the police.
What if I lost a pet in Hanahan?
Contact Animal Control at (843) 256-8994 (Monday-Friday, 10 AM to 6 PM) immediately to report your lost pet. The Charleston Animal Society and Berkeley County SPCA also maintain records of stray animals found in the area. ReportLost can file a priority lost pet report that alerts all these services and posts to active pet-recovery groups.
Where do lost items turn up in Hanahan?
Items found in the city are typically turned in to the Hanahan Police Department, City Hall, or local businesses and shops where they were lost. Some items end up with Animal Control if they're found outside. Your ReportLost report routes to all these places and checks community posts where finders often post found items.
Can I report directly to the city instead of the police?
Yes, you can contact City Hall at (843) 554-4221 (Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM to 5 PM) to report a lost item. However, ReportLost files with the police department, posts across social channels, and keeps your report searching for matches automatically, so you don't have to make the calls yourself.
Is ReportLost.org official or a replacement for the police?
ReportLost is an independent service that works alongside local authorities and community channels. We file your report with the Hanahan Police Department and post it to active local groups, but we don't replace official police channels. Think of us as the bridge that gets your information to all the right places at once and keeps it searchable for months while you can move on with your day.
