Found something? The sooner you report, the better.
Once you submit your report, our team takes it from there. You've done the hard part. Sit back while we notify police, transit, and community groups on your behalf, and keep your report active in the background.
Report my lost item →Woodburn's quiet neighborhoods and busy transit corridors mean lost items end up scattered across several systems: Woodburn Police, Fairfax Connector buses, Fairfax County services, and dozens of community Facebook groups and Nextdoor posts. If you lose your wallet, purse, keys, or ring, piecing together which office to call and which group to post in takes hours, and you might miss a post about your item while you're searching elsewhere.
ReportLost simplifies that. File one report with us, and we notify the right local authorities, file your item in the channels where locals post found things, and keep your report active and searching on your behalf for months. If someone finds your phone or bracelet and reports it online or hands it to police, our system catches the match and alerts you immediately, no daily checking required.
