How ReportLost works in Brady
You tell us what you lost
Fill out a quick report with details about your item: where you lost it in Brady, when, and what it looks like. Include photos if you have them.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes directly to the Brady Police Department, City Hall, Animal Control (if it's a pet), and gets posted to the local community channels where Brady residents actively search and share.
Your report keeps searching for you
While you go about your day, your report stays active and automatically matches against new found items, posts, and community updates. You'll get an alert the moment a credible match surfaces, so you don't have to check every group and listing yourself.
Where to report and search in Brady
If you prefer to go it alone, here are the key places to contact. ReportLost handles these outreach steps for you.
Brady Police Department
The Brady Police Department (9 officers serving about 5,500 people) maintains lost and found records and can help locate items lost in public spaces or businesses around town. They also coordinate with other local services. When you file a ReportLost report, we make sure the right precinct gets your details right away.
City of Brady Administration
City Hall can direct you to the right department depending on where you lost your item and help coordinate with local services. They're also a central point of contact for items lost at city facilities or events. We make sure your report includes all the information City Hall needs to track it down.
Curtis Field Airport
Brady's municipal airport, Curtis Field, serves small aircraft and occasional travelers. If you lost an item there, the airport office can help retrieve it. Contact the City of Brady's main line for airport-related lost and found inquiries.

If your cat, dog, or other pet went missing in Brady, Animal Control and PAWS From the Heart Animal Shelter are your first stops. Both have active lost pet networks and community connections. File a priority lost pet report on ReportLost to alert all local rescues and shelters at once.

Once you file with ReportLost, you can take a breath, knowing your report is working continuously on your behalf.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Brady can feel like a dead end, especially when you're not sure which local office to contact first or whether anyone will see your post.
