How ReportLost Works in Superior
You report your loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We gather all the details needed to alert the right local offices and community channels in Superior.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes to the Superior Police Department, the Douglas County Humane Society (if it's a pet), relevant Facebook groups, and other local lost and found resources that can actually help you recover it.
Your report keeps searching for you
For 12 months, your report stays active and matches against new found item posts, community announcements, and local listings. You get alerts when a credible match appears, so you don't have to check Facebook groups or community boards every day yourself.
Where to Report in Superior
The key places that hold lost items and post found items in our community.
Superior Police Department
The police hold found property and maintain records of lost items reported to them. Many items turn up at the station or are brought in by residents. We can tell you exactly which details to include and handle the initial filing on your behalf.
City Clerk's Office
The City of Superior's central office can help direct your inquiry to the right department and keep a record of your lost item report. They're open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
UW-Superior Lost and Found
If you lost something at or near the UW-Superior campus, the university's Public Safety office maintains a lost and found. They can hold items for a period while you arrange retrieval.
Lost Pets
If you've lost a dog, cat, or other pet, the Douglas County Humane Society is the first call. They also work closely with Animal Control and local rescue networks. Community groups like the Twinports Lost and Found Pets Facebook group also move quickly to spread the word. For the fastest result, file a priority lost pet report with ReportLost.
⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.
Act early, then let us handle the rest.
The first few hours after losing something matter. Once you've filed your report with us, your information is already out across Superior's lost and found network. You can take a breath. We'll monitor for matches and alert you as they come in.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Superior can feel scattered. A lost wallet might turn up at a local business. A found pet gets posted in a community group. A set of keys sits with the police. Each place operates separately, and there's no single place to check. Most people end up contacting the police, then searching Facebook, then calling local shelters, all while hoping they haven't missed a match.
ReportLost simplifies that. One report, filed once, reaches all the right channels at once: the Superior Police Department, the City of Superior's offices, local lost pet networks, and active community groups. And because your report stays active for months, the system continues searching for a match even after you've moved on to other things. If someone posts a found item that matches your description, you'll know it.
