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 pants near Five Points MARTA station

This morning around 9:20 a.m., after a rushed coffee run, I realized my charcoal-gray pants weren't in my bag. I had them on earlier while grabbing a bus by the Five Points MARTA station, and I remember taking them off in the fitting room at Lenox Square Mall before a quick walk along Edgewood Avenue. I've retraced the route along Decatur Street and the nearby park area, but the pants stayed hidden. It's frustrating because they were my go-to pair for meetings and I could really use them back. If anyone spotted a stray pair in the area, please keep an eye out.

Lost holiday decorations near Centennial Olympic Park, Atlanta, GA.

I was hanging up holiday decorations on the balcony after dinner around 9:15 p.m. last Friday when I noticed the boxes were gone from the hallway closet outside my apartment near Centennial Olympic Park. The decorations include a hand-painted glass ornament from my grandmother, a set of brass bells, and string lights that spell out 'JOY'. They carry a lot of memory and cheer from last year's Christmases. Without them, the living room feels bare. If anyone saw them, I’d be grateful for any help.

LOST: Board Games in Atlanta, Georgia, United States

I hosted a casual game night at Piedmont Park, near the main entrance on 10th Street, and I think I left my box of board games behind after we packed up around 7:30 p.m. last Friday. The box included Settlers of Catan and Ticket to Ride, plus a few family favorites. I have retraced steps, but I haven’t turned them up yet, and I’m worried they might be gone for good. If you found this box, please respond through the site; I would be grateful to have them back.

Lost violins near Centennial Olympic Park, Atlanta

I was finishing a street performance at 3:15 p.m. on Saturday near Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta when I realized my two violins were missing from their case on the bench. The weather was mild, with a soft breeze and a few onlookers clapping as I packed up. These violins matter to me beyond their value; they carry years of practice and memories from every recital. If you saw a violin case or someone carrying two violins around that area, please get in touch—I'm holding out hope they were misplaced rather than stolen.

Volleyball blanket; lost in or near GWCC but years ago. Still hoping it's out there somewhere as I received this over 25 years ago and it's been with me through a lot!
