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 Boulder 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 Boulder in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost wedding ring with L+I initials

Hi there, My husband went to Scott carpenter pool today and can’t find his wedding ring. He says he put it in his shoe and that someone must have stolen it. It is a black band with the initials L+I and our anniversary both on the inside. Thank you in advance

Lost Brooches in Boulder

I was strolling along Pearl Street Mall in Boulder around 3:15 PM on Monday when a gust of wind knocked something from my coat pocket. I turned around and didn’t see them—a pair of vintage brooches with sapphire centers. They mean a lot to me, as they were a gift from my grandmother, and I’m hoping they turn up with a bit of luck. If you found them near the Boulder Creek Path or by the Dushanbe Teahouse, I’d be grateful to have them back.

Lost driver's license near Pearl Street Mall, Boulder

I realized my driver's license was missing this morning around 11:45 AM after a quick coffee stop near the Pearl Street Mall in downtown Boulder. I retraced steps from the library to the market and back to the car, but it didn’t turn up. This ID is essential for work and travel, and the thought of it being out there makes me anxious. If it surfaces, I just hope it lands back with someone who understands how it feels to misplace something so essential.

Lost Holiday Decorations in Boulder

I spent Friday evening, around 6:15 PM, in downtown Boulder by Pearl Street Mall, packing up a tote of holiday decorations after a small get-together. A gust rattled the car door and I left the tote on the back seat as I walked toward the coffee shop. When I returned to the car, the bag with lights, a wreath, and some glittery garlands was gone. I have retraced steps along the Pearl Street pedestrian area and checked with a few shops, but no luck so far. These decorations carry memory of my grandmother, and losing them feels personal and frustrating.

Blue Ray-Ban Wayfarer glasses with etched temple tips

I lost my blue Ray-Ban Wayfarer glasses yesterday around 3pm. I was outside Boxcar Coffee Roasters on Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, right near the Boulder Creek path, when I must have set them down and walked away. They’re blue plastic Wayfarers, in decent shape, with etched temple tips. Inside the left temple there’s a tiny lightning bolt engraving and my initials 'PP' on the right hinge. There’s a light scratch on the left lens from a bike ride later that day. These prescription glasses are essential for me—they were a gift from my mom, so they mean a lot. If anyone found them, please reach out; I’d really appreciate getting them back.
