How ReportLost Works
You report your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details needed to route your case to the right local services.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes directly to the Forest Hill Police Department, Municipal Animal Services (if it's a pet), and relevant lost and found offices. We also post to active local community channels so neighbors can help.
Your report keeps searching
For your entire search period, your report stays active and matches your description against new found item posts, online marketplaces, and community alerts. You get notified if a credible match appears, so you don't have to check every day.
Where to report in Forest Hill
These are the official channels you can contact directly. ReportLost files on your behalf and ensures your report reaches all of them.
Forest Hill Police Department
The Police Department maintains a lost property log and can file a formal report. They're located at 3336 Horton Road and can be reached during business hours. We generate the exact details to include and route your report to the right desk so nothing gets lost in translation.
City of Forest Hill
The City Hall office can direct you to the appropriate department or provide guidance on local lost and found procedures. We help identify which city department or service is most relevant to your situation.
Lost or Found Pet
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet in Forest Hill or the surrounding area, Municipal Animal Services is your first stop. They're located in Everman and open by appointment. Local Facebook groups and community networks also help reunite lost pets with their families. To expedite your pet search with continuous matching and community alerts, file a priority lost pet report.
Nearby Airports
If you lost your wallet, phone, or luggage while traveling through the Dallas area, Dallas Love Field and DFW International are the major airports serving Forest Hill residents.

Frequently asked questions
How long will the Forest Hill Police Department keep a lost property report?
Most police departments hold lost property for 30 to 90 days before disposal. That's why filing with ReportLost is important: your report stays active for 12 months, continuing to search even after the initial police holding period ends.
Where do I claim a found item in Forest Hill?
Check with the Forest Hill Police Department (817-531-5250) or the location where you lost it (shop, restaurant, park office). If it's a pet, contact Municipal Animal Services at 817-561-5495. ReportLost can help you navigate which office is most likely to have your item.
How does ReportLost help me find my lost pet?
When you file a lost pet report, we alert Municipal Animal Services, post to local pet recovery Facebook groups like the Lost and Found Pets of Forest Hill group, and notify nearby shelters and rescues. Your pet's description stays in circulation and we watch for matches on community posts and found pet networks for your entire search period.
What if I lost something at an airport?
If you lost your wallet, phone, or luggage at Dallas Love Field or DFW, contact the specific airport's lost and found office directly with your flight and bag details. ReportLost can help you file a broader report so that if your item resurfaces in Forest Hill or is listed on community channels, you'll be notified.
Can I file a report for a ring or bracelet I lost in Forest Hill?
Yes. Describe it in as much detail as possible: material, size, any engravings or markings, and the exact location and time you last had it. File a report with the Police Department and on ReportLost so that if someone finds it and posts it locally, the match algorithm alerts you immediately.
Is ReportLost.org official or does it replace the police?
ReportLost is an independent service, not affiliated with the Forest Hill Police Department or any government agency. We don't replace official police reports; we complement them. When you use ReportLost, we file and submit your report to the proper authorities on your behalf, and we extend the search beyond the typical police holding window by keeping your description active and matching it against community posts, online listings, and local networks for 12 months.
