How ReportLost Works in Forest Hills
You submit your loss details
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the specifics that matter: a wallet on Hillsboro Pike, a ring at a local shop, a cat near your home. No need to hunt down ten different forms.
We route your report to the right places
Your loss goes directly to the Forest Hills Police Department, the right neighborhood channels, and if it's a pet, to Metro Animal Care and Control and local lost pet groups. Each channel gets the exact info they need to help.
Your report keeps searching for a match
While you go about your day, your report stays active across community posts, local marketplaces, and shelter updates. We match new "found" notices against your description and alert you immediately if there's a credible lead, for your entire search period.
Where to Report a Lost Item in Forest Hills
These are the official channels serving Forest Hills. ReportLost connects you to all of them at once.
Forest Hills Police Department
The Forest Hills Police Department handles non-emergency lost and found reports. You can file in person during business hours or call to ask about procedures and what has been turned in. ReportLost sends your report details directly to them so you don't have to repeat the story.
City of Forest Hills Administration
The City Hall office at Hillsboro Pike can direct you to the right department for your lost item, answer questions about reporting procedures, and help connect you with community resources. They're open Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. ReportLost coordinates with them to ensure your case reaches the right desk.
Nashville International Airport
If you lost an item at BNA, the airport's Lost and Found department on the Ground Transportation Level holds items for retrieval. They're open daily from 6:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. ReportLost can help you file the airport claim and keep searching in parallel if your item hasn't surfaced there yet.
Lost or Found Pet
If your dog or cat is missing, time matters. Metro Animal Care and Control operates 24/7 and coordinates with local shelters and rescue groups. The Forest Hills Nashville Neighbors group on Facebook is where residents post pet sightings. ReportLost ensures your pet's description reaches animal control and triggers alerts across neighborhood networks immediately. File a priority lost pet report for faster coordination with local animal services.
Community and Neighborhood Groups
Forest Hills neighbors actively help each other find lost items and pets in groups like Forest Hills Nashville Neighbors. Posting there gets your lost item in front of people who know the area. ReportLost posts on your behalf to these networks and monitors new community posts to spot matches for you.

The sooner you report, the sooner we search.
Filing a report today means your lost item enters the Forest Hills network immediately, and your report begins its 6 to 12 month search. Every hour counts, and every day your report stays active, new found posts and shelter updates are checked against your description.
Report my lost item →Forest Hills neighbors lose things every day, in different places. A purse at a coffee shop on Hillsboro Pike. A dog near Vaughn Road. A phone left in a car or at a community event. Each lost item triggers a separate search: the police, animal control, social media, local groups, shelter calls. By the time you've contacted even half the right places, days have passed.
ReportLost simplifies that. One clear report goes out to all the channels that matter in Forest Hills: the Police Department, neighborhood watch groups, pet rescue networks, and beyond. And crucially, your report doesn't disappear after a day or a week, it remains active, automatically cross-checking new finds and community posts against your description. You get to rest while your lost item stays in circulation, and you'll hear the moment there's a match.
