How ReportLost Works
You submit your loss details
Tell us what you lost, when, and where in Spartanburg. We generate a complete report with all the right information for the authorities.

Your report goes straight to the Spartanburg Police Department, Sheriff's Office, SPARTA lost and found (if transit), and GSP Airport (if applicable). No chasing multiple offices.
We search the web for you, 24/7
For 12 months, our system scans Nextdoor, Facebook lost and found groups, local marketplaces, and community posts across Spartanburg. You get an alert the moment a match is found, so you're never left wondering.
Where to Report a Lost Item in Spartanburg
Each channel below accepts reports independently. ReportLost handles them all at once.
Spartanburg Police Department
File a report directly with the city police if you lost something in Spartanburg proper. The Property and Evidence Division keeps records and can help you track your item. We prepare your report and submit it on your behalf to save you time.
Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office
If your loss occurred in unincorporated Spartanburg County, the Sheriff's Office handles the report. Contact them for non-emergency property matters, and they'll direct you to the right department. ReportLost identifies which jurisdiction covers your location.
SPARTA Transit Lost & Found
Left something on a SPARTA bus? The Spartanburg Area Regional Transit Agency runs a dedicated lost and found. Call them or visit their FAQ for next steps. We alert SPARTA to your loss automatically so they can flag your item if it's turned in.
Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport (GSP)
Lost something at GSP? The airport's Information Center near baggage claim runs an active lost and found. Hours are 9 AM to midnight daily. We contact GSP's lost and found department directly to file a report on your behalf.
Lost Pet?
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet in Spartanburg, the process is different and more time-sensitive. Local Facebook groups like Lost & Found Pets North Spartanburg and Spartanburg, SC Lost and Found/Pet Rehoming connect pet owners quickly, but coordinating across all groups takes energy you don't have right now. File a priority lost pet report and we'll amplify your search across every local pet network.

How does ReportLost monitor the web?
We scan Nextdoor, Facebook lost and found groups (including Lost & Found Pets North Spartanburg and Spartanburg, SC Lost and Found/Pet Rehoming), local marketplaces, and community posts continuously for 12 months.
