How ReportLost works in Kanab
You describe what you lost
Tell us what went missing, where, and when. Include details like color, brand, or distinguishing marks. We handle the rest.
We route it to the right people
Your report goes straight to the Kanab Police Department's lost and found, the local animal shelter if needed, and active community channels where locals spot and share found items.

For your entire 6 or 12 month period, your report automatically compares new found item posts and descriptions. You get an alert the moment a credible match appears, so you don't have to check Facebook groups and Nextdoor every day.
Where to report lost items in Kanab
Direct contacts and what each place handles
Kanab Police Department
The police department maintains a lost and found for items turned in by the community and businesses. Call them to report a loss or check if your item has been found. ReportLost notifies them on your behalf and ensures your description reaches their records.
Kanab City Administration
City offices may hold items left in municipal buildings or public spaces. If your loss occurred at a city event or location, the administration office can help direct you or check their found items storage. We generate the right information to include when you contact them.
Kanab Municipal Airport
If you lost an item at the airport, contact them during business hours (8 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Items are typically held for a period before they're released or donated. We help you report clearly so they have your full description on file.
Lost or Found Pet
Kanab has a city animal shelter on Chinle Drive that holds stray and found animals. Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary, is also located here and maintains records of animals in their care. If your dog, cat, or other pet has gone missing, file a priority lost pet report and we'll ensure the shelter and rescue community know to look for your companion.

Report your loss now and stop searching alone
The sooner you file, the sooner your item can match with found posts. Let us handle the notifications while you focus on your day.
Report my lost item →Kanab is small enough that many locals know each other, yet losing something here still means contacting the police department, checking social media groups, visiting the animal shelter, and hoping someone posts it to one of several channels. Between Facebook Classifieds, the Lost & Found Pets group, and word-of-mouth, it's easy to miss the post about your ring or wallet.
ReportLost simplifies this by filing your report once and letting it work for you. We notify the Kanab Police Department's lost and found, point you toward the right shelters and community groups, and keep your report actively matching against new found items for months. Once your report is in, you can focus on your day while we help ensure it doesn't slip through the cracks.
