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 Cape Cod / Islands 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 Cape Cod / Islands in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost tank accessories on Cape Cod, MA

I realized around 5:50 PM on Friday that my tank accessories were missing from the back seat after a stroll along Provincetown's MacMillan Wharf. The items are in a clear plastic tote with a black lid, housing a heater, a small filter, hoses, and spare tubing. I last had them after helping a friend pack up our gear near the harbor and I must have forgotten to bring the tote back to the car. I’m hoping they turn up, because aquarium upkeep is a small but real comfort here on Cape Cod, and those pieces are hard to replace.

lost: Breeds on Cape Cod, MA

Last night around 7:15 p.m., I realized I lost my Breeds after a quick walk along Coast Guard Beach in Eastham. I had set them down to wipe the sand from my hands and must have left them near the parking area by the dunes. My heart sank because these Breeds have been with me through road trips and quiet mornings on the water, and I’m terrified they’ll be separated from me for good. If you happened to spot them anywhere near the Coast Guard Beach access road or the parking lot, please let me know.

Lost: drums in Cape Cod / Islands, Massachusetts

At about 9:15 p.m. on Monday, I realized my drums were missing from the corner of my cottage on Cape Cod, just a short walk from Nauset Beach in Eastham. It’s a small, home-made kit with a bright red finish on the bass and toms, and a few stickers that my nephew helped me decorate. Those nights of jamming with friends made this place feel like home, and losing the drums turned the living room into something quieter and emptier. If anyone happened to see a drum kit left near the Chatham Lighthouse or tucked behind a shed on Cape Cod, please let the folks listing know—hope to get them back where they belong.

Lost Trading Cards on Cape Cod

On Saturday at 6:20 p.m., I was strolling along the Provincetown Town Pier after a sunset walk when I realized my binder of trading cards was missing. It is a small blue binder with a white cover and a red sticker on the spine. We paused near the fishing shack to compare a few cards, and I must have left it on the bench as the tide rolled in. I am attached to these cards because they remind me of summers here with my family and a weekend trip my dad planned.
