Lost something on public transport?

How to track down an item left on a bus, train, tram, or taxi by contacting the right transport operator.

Items left on buses, trains, trams, and taxis around Atlanta are usually handed in to the operator's lost property team — the trick is contacting the right one quickly.

  1. Identify the operator. Note the route, line, or company and the rough time. Each operator runs its own lost property process.
  2. Submit a lost property report. Use the operator's online form or phone line as soon as possible; recovered items are logged against your description.
  3. For taxis and rideshare, contact the driver or company directly through your booking or app receipt.
  4. Keep your reference. Save any report number so you can chase it up.
  5. Post a listing. Add a listing for Atlanta in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost: Holiday decorations in Atlanta

I’m Noah Carter, tucked away in Atlanta, Georgia. I think I left behind a tote of holiday decorations on a street corner near Centennial Olympic Park around 7:40 PM last Saturday after rehearsal. The tote includes a red velvet stocking, a string of multicolored lights, and a small moss wreath— the kind of things we pull out every December. They aren’t just decorations; they carry memories of family traditions and a lot of laughter. If you found them, please hold onto them until the owner sees this post.

Lost postcards in Midtown Atlanta, near Centennial Park.

I lost my postcards after a sunset stroll around Centennial Olympic Park around 7:45 p.m. last Friday. They’re a small bundle of city-scene postcards, tied with a red string, with a sketch of the skyline on the front. I’d been wearing a blue denim jacket and a beige scarf, and I remember sitting briefly on a bench near the fountain outside the Omni hotel before heading toward the Varsity for a quick bite. The wind picked up, and when I retraced the path, the bundle was gone. These postcards mean a lot to me; one card carries my grandmother's handwriting. If found, I’d be grateful to have them returned.

Grey tabby cat with blue collar missing in Buckhead

I lost my grey tabby cat Milo yesterday around 3pm. He's a medium-sized indoor cat, about 9 pounds, with a white patch on his chest and a tiny nick on his left ear. He's wearing a blue collar with a small bell and a tag that has my number. Milo loves sunlit porches and tends to hide in bushes around Buckhead; I’m worried because he’s not an outdoor cat and this is out of the ordinary. If you’ve seen him near the Starbucks on Lenox Road or around Lenox Square, please reply to this listing — he has sentimental value and I really need him back.

Dyson V11 cordless vacuum, matte black

I lost my Dyson V11 Torque Drive cordless vacuum yesterday around 3pm. It’s the matte black model with a red accent on the cyclone and a small dent on the lower canister corner. The blue microfiber brush stays clipped to the wand, and there’s a tiny blue sticker with my initials 'PP' on the battery housing. I’ve been using it daily to manage my beagle’s shedding and my toddler’s messes—it’s become essential. Last seen in Midtown Atlanta near the Fox Theatre on Peachtree Street NE, maybe left in the hallway outside my apartment building at 660 Peachtree Street NE around 3pm. If anyone spots it, I’d really appreciate getting it back soon.

Black Anker PowerCore 10000 charger

I lost my black Anker PowerCore 10000 portable charger yesterday around 3pm. It's a compact, matte-black power bank the size of a deck of cards, with a small dent on the top edge and a gray USB-C port, and I marked it with a blue sticker bearing the initials 'PS' on the corner. Last I had it after grabbing coffee and walking the BeltLine Eastside Trail behind Ponce City Market, near the CVS on North Ave NE in Atlanta. This little charger keeps my phone powered during long workdays and rides, so I really need it back—please drop it somewhere safe if you found it.
