Where to Report a Lost Item in Mineral Wells
These are the official channels. ReportLost files with all of them automatically and monitors for matches.
Mineral Wells Police Department
The Police Department accepts lost item reports and maintains a lost and found for items turned in by the community. For non-emergencies, visit their office or call during business hours. We generate the exact information they need and make sure your report is filed correctly.
City Hall
City of Mineral Wells main office can direct you to the right department and sometimes holds items found in city spaces or turned in by the public. We help you identify which department covers your specific loss and provide the details they ask for.
Animal Shelter
If you've lost a cat, dog, or other pet, the Mineral Wells Animal Shelter is the first place to report. They scan for microchips, hold animals, and post photos. We make sure your pet description reaches them immediately and file a priority lost pet report that stays active across community networks.
Mineral Wells Regional Airport
If you lost something at the airport or on a flight, the airport's Lost and Found office is your direct contact. Call ahead to confirm they have your item or get guidance on next steps with the airline.

Here is where to report it.
The sooner you report, the sooner all the right people start looking. Once your report is filed, the hard part is done. Our team takes it from there.
Report my lost item →Losing a wallet, ring, or pet in Mineral Wells means contacting several different services separately, each with its own hours and process. Between the Police Department on Oak Avenue, City Hall, the Animal Shelter across town, and scattered community posts, it's easy to fall through the cracks or waste time making the same call twice.
ReportLost shortens that journey. One report reaches all the right channels at once, and then your report keeps working for you, actively matching against new found items for months. That means you can move forward instead of spending every morning checking Facebook groups and calling around. We handle the coordination so you can focus on what matters.
