Report Your Loss in New Berlin
Know exactly where to report and what happens next
New Berlin Police Department
The Police Department handles lost and found reports at their main office on National Avenue. They can document your loss and check items that come in through their lobby or are turned in by community members. We submit your report directly so you don't have to navigate the dispatch line.
New Berlin City Hall
City Hall coordinates with local departments and can direct inquiries about lost items found in public spaces or municipal buildings. We provide City Hall with all relevant details so they can flag your report internally and cross-reference with any found items.
Local Businesses & Public Spaces
Shops, restaurants, libraries, and parks throughout New Berlin receive and hold found items. We help you identify which location is most relevant based on where you lost your item and provide the exact details to include when you follow up yourself.

The sooner you file, the sooner we're routing your report and your item begins matching against community finds. Lost items don't age better with time, so getting ahead matters. Once your report is live, you can breathe easier knowing the search is active and automated.
Report my lost item →Losing something in New Berlin means juggling calls to the police, checks at local businesses, scrolling through Facebook groups, and hoping someone posts about your item before it disappears. The police department, City Hall, and community members all operate separately, so a lost item can slip through the cracks while you're trying to figure out who to contact first.
ReportLost cuts through that maze. File once, and we immediately notify the New Berlin Police Department, route details to City Hall, and amplify your report across local community channels. Then your report stays active and searching for the entire duration you choose, cross-referencing new found posts against your description automatically. You don't need to refresh feeds or call back repeatedly—we're watching for a match on your behalf.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the New Berlin Police keep lost items in their lost and found?
Policies vary by item type and value. Contact the New Berlin Police Department at (262) 782-6640 during lobby hours (Monday–Friday, 7:00 AM–11:00 AM) to ask about retention timelines for the specific item you've lost.
Can I file a report even if I'm not sure where I lost my item?
Yes. Provide your best estimate of the area or time window. ReportLost helps you narrow it down based on your likely route, and we'll route the report to the most relevant local channels. The more detail you remember, the better the match rate.
How quickly will I hear about my lost item?
Once your report is live, we begin searching immediately and monitoring community posts and found-item listings. You'll receive an alert as soon as a credible match appears. Some items are found within hours; others take weeks. Your report stays active so you don't miss it.
Do I need to contact the police myself after filing with ReportLost?
We submit your report to the New Berlin Police Department on your behalf, but following up directly with them (or businesses where you think you lost your item) can sometimes accelerate the recovery. We tell you which steps are most likely to help.
What if my item is found outside New Berlin?
New Berlin borders several communities. If your item travels to a neighboring area, we've expanded our report network to cover the greater Waukesha County region so you're not left searching alone.
Is ReportLost.org an official city service?
No, ReportLost is an independent service. We're not part of the New Berlin Police Department or City government, but we partner with them and local community channels to amplify your report. We're here to do the legwork of notifying the right places so you don't have to.
