How ReportLost works in Leesburg
You describe your lost item
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather the details once so you don't have to repeat them across multiple channels.
We route it to the right places
Your report reaches the Leesburg Police Department, Loudoun County Animal Services (if it's a pet), Loudoun County Transit, and spreads to local Facebook groups and community networks in a single step.
Your report keeps searching for you
For your entire search period, your report automatically matches against new found items reported by police, transit, shelters, and local posts. You get notified when a match appears, so you're not checking websites every day.
Where to report and how ReportLost helps
Leesburg's lost and found network explained
Leesburg Police Department
The town police handle lost property reports and maintain a lost and found database. You can file in person, by fax, or by mail. ReportLost ensures your report reaches the correct precinct and includes all the details officers need to log and cross-reference your item.
Loudoun County Transit
Items left on local buses are held for 30 days. You can report online or call directly. ReportLost generates the exact information to include and monitors whether your item surfaces in the transit lost and found during that holding period.
Town of Leesburg & Loudoun County Government
Leesburg Town Hall and Loudoun County Government Center can direct you to specialized departments. Town Hall hours are Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. ReportLost identifies the right desk for your situation so you're not transferred multiple times.
Leesburg Executive Airport
If you lost an item at the airport, the administrative office can check their lost and found. For regional flights through larger hubs like Dulles, ReportLost can guide you to the right lost and found desk.
Lost or Found Pet?
Loudoun County Animal Services keeps a database of lost and found pets and can cross-reference reports. Your pet's description reaches shelters, vets, and regional rescue networks. If you're searching for a lost pet, file a priority lost pet report to activate emergency-level alert distribution.

The sooner you report, the better
Once your information is filed, your search begins immediately across all channels. ReportLost takes it from there, so you can stop worrying and start waiting for the good news.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Leesburg means contacting the police, checking with Loudoun County Transit if it's on the bus, reaching out to animal services if it's a pet, and scrolling through Facebook groups and community boards. Each place holds items separately, operates on different timelines, and there's no central way to know if someone found yours across all of them.
ReportLost cuts through that fragmentation. You file once, and we notify the right authorities, shelters, transit centers, and social channels. Then your report stays active, automatically searching for a match in lost-and-found posts, marketplace updates, and shelter intake forms for months to come, while you get on with your day.

Does ReportLost replace filing with the Leesburg Police?
ReportLost is an independent service that complements police reporting. We deliver your information to the Leesburg Police Department, Loudoun County services, and community channels, then keep your report active and searching for months. You're not replacing the official channels, you're streamlining and extending your reach through them.
Can I search for found items myself on a local database?
The Leesburg Police Department and Loudoun County services maintain lost and found listings, but they're not centralized in one searchable place online. ReportLost bridges that gap by notifying all channels at once and continuously matching your report against new posts and found items reported by authorities.
What if I lost my item outside of town business hours?
You can file a police report anytime through ReportLost, and your report is filed immediately. The Leesburg Police non-emergency line (703-771-4500) operates during business hours; for emergencies, call 911. ReportLost ensures your report reaches officers as soon as they're available.
