Where to report a lost item in Andrews
The right local channels, and what ReportLost does to speed up the process
Andrews Police Department
The city's primary law enforcement resource. If you've lost an item in a public space, a business, or at a community event, the police can log your loss and check the lost and found at the station. We tell you exactly which precinct covers your loss location and supply the details they'll need.
Andrews County Sheriff's Office
Covers the broader county area outside city limits. If your loss happened outside Andrews proper, the Sheriff's Office is the right place to file. We generate the exact report format and information they'll need to track your item.
City of Andrews
The city hall can direct you to the right department and sometimes maintains records of found items at municipal offices and public facilities. We point you to the right desk and ensure your report reaches the department that handles lost items for your location.
Andrews County Airport
If you lost an item while traveling through or visiting the airport, contact the airport directly. Items found on the premises are held by airport staff. We connect you with the right contact and help you describe what you're looking for.
Lost pet? Report it to Animal Services
Andrews Animal Services handles lost and found pets in the city. Report your missing cat, dog, or other pet to them immediately, and join the active community pet networks. The faster you report, the faster they can help. If you've lost a pet, file a priority lost pet report with us as well so we keep searching for months.

Report my lost item →Losing something in Andrews hits harder when you're not sure where to start. Between the Police Department, the Sheriff's Office, animal services, and scattered community groups, the missing item can fall through the cracks. ReportLost cuts through that confusion by connecting your report to all the right channels at once, and by keeping your search active continuously.
Instead of posting manually in multiple Facebook groups, calling different offices, and checking back daily to see if anyone's turned in your bracelet or found your cat, you file one report and we take it from there. Your report stays in motion for 12 months, matching against new finds and alerts so you can breathe easier while the search continues.
