Trade Show Found Item Report Form

Running a successful trade show or exhibition means managing thousands of details—including the inevitable lost items left behind by attendees, exhibitors, or staff. Our Trade Show Found Item Report Form streamlines the process of logging found belongings so you can quickly reunite them with their rightful owners.

This professional template is designed specifically for event management companies, convention centers, exhibition organizers, and venue operations teams who handle large-scale trade shows. Whether you're managing a multi-day conference, industry expo, or corporate exhibition, this form captures all the critical details: what was found, where it was discovered, booth numbers, exhibitor information, show dates, and potential attendee badge correlations.

With Paperform's conditional logic and custom branding, you can adapt this template to match your event's look and feel, then embed it on your event website or share it directly with booth staff and security teams. Submissions flow straight into your preferred tools—whether that's Google Sheets for quick tracking, Airtable for a visual database, or your CRM for follow-up communications.

Need to automate what happens next? Connect this form to Stepper (stepper.io) to trigger automated workflows: send confirmation emails to the reporter, notify your lost-and-found desk, create tasks for your operations team, or even cross-reference attendee databases to proactively contact potential owners. You can also use Papersign (papersign.com) if you need claimants to sign release forms before collecting valuable items.

Perfect for event coordinators, venue managers, exhibition organizers, trade show staff, and facilities teams, this form template brings structure and professionalism to an often chaotic part of event operations—helping you deliver better attendee experiences and reduce post-show inquiries.
