How It Works
You report your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. Our form captures the details we need to route your case properly across Logan's network of services.
We notify the right places
We contact Logan City Police, USU's surplus department, Connect Transit if applicable, and the relevant local agencies. No more running around trying to figure out who to call.
We monitor for matches automatically
Our system scans community Facebook groups, local marketplaces, and public posts across the web for 12 months, flagging any found items that match your description. You get alerts; you don't do the searching.
Where to Report in Logan
A breakdown of the local services that handle lost items. ReportLost alerts all of them at once, but here's what each handles on their own.
Logan City Police Department
The police department maintains a lost and found for items turned in or recovered by officers. If your loss involves a specific incident, they're the first official point of contact. We file a report with them and ensure they have your full details.
Utah State University Lost & Found
If you lost something on campus or in a USU building, their surplus and lost and found department holds items. We generate the exact description your report needs and point you to the right desk.
Connect Transit (Logan Bus System)
Lost items on Connect buses or transit property are held at their lost and found. Items are typically retained for a set period. We notify them with your specifics so they flag your item if it comes in.
Cache County Animal Services
If you've lost a pet, Cache County Animal Services handles impound and lost animal reports. They keep animals for a set time while trying to locate owners. We'll alert them and local shelters, and help you file a priority lost pet report to speed up the search.
Logan City Hall
City Hall can direct you to the right department depending on where you lost your item. If it's in a city facility or park, they may hold it. We identify the correct department contact so you reach the right person faster.
⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.
The sooner you report, the better.
Items get misplaced, moved, or donated when they sit unclaimed. A quick report to all the right channels maximizes the chance someone's already found and turned in what you're looking for.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Logan means juggling calls to the police department, checking with USU if it happened on campus, posting in Cache Valley Facebook groups, and refreshing local marketplaces every single day hoping someone posts a photo. Most people give up after a week.
ReportLost takes the legwork out of the search. One report triggers notifications to Logan's police, university lost and found, transit system, and local community channels. But the real difference is what happens next: we keep watching social media, online classifieds, and community forums automatically for months while you get on with your life. The moment a credible match surfaces, you'll know.
