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 memory cards near Pearl Street Mall

I was wrapping up a sunset shoot at 4:20 p.m. near the Pearl Street Mall when my memory cards vanished from my camera bag. They’re tucked in a small black case with a blue zipper and a slightly scuffed corner. I retraced my steps from the Laughing Goat to the Boulder Creek Path, asking a few pedestrians, but nothing turned up. Those cards hold months of video footage and personal travel photos, and I’m panicked about losing them. If you found them on the ground near the fountain by the courtyard or along the bike path behind the courthouse, please let the site know so I can get them back.

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.
