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 Central Louisiana 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 Central Louisiana in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost sports gear from Alexandria gym

I lost my sports equipment from my gym bag after practice in Central Louisiana. On Tuesday around 8:15 p.m., I left the bag at the Alexandria YMCA on Masonic Drive after a late workout, and by the time I returned, it was gone. The gear covers basketball, shin guards, a tennis racket, and a jump rope, all in a worn blue duffel. These items are practical but meaningful—they help my son stay active and it’s been a rough week without them. If anyone saw them, I’d be deeply grateful to have them back in the bag where they belong.

Lost appliances in Central Louisiana

I lost my appliances when I helped a friend move and left them by the curb outside the Alexandria Mall on Jackson Street around 7:45 p.m. on Wednesday. The dishwasher, microwave, and a small toaster oven disappeared from the curb, as if the night air pulled them away. I’ve checked the parking lot, asked a few neighbors, and walked the nearby streets near Jackson Street, but nothing has turned up. Those appliances are old but practical and carry memories of my grandmother, so I’m hoping someone picked them up and kept them safe. If you’ve seen a dented white dishwasher or a silver microwave near the mall, please let me know.

Gold-tone beaded bracelet with shell charm

I lost my gold-tone beaded bracelet yesterday around 3pm near the Riverfront Park on Main Street in downtown Alexandria, Central Louisiana. It's a slim bracelet with a small shell charm and a delicate heart-shaped clasp engraved with M.J.H. The beads are a mix of shiny gold and deep brown, and the elastic string has a bit of stretch left, so it feels loose when I move. This bracelet is sentimental—it was a gift from my sister last year, and I really need to have it back. If anyone found it, please message me here; I'd be forever grateful to get it home.

Oak coffee table with distress marks

I lost my oak coffee table yesterday around 3pm. It's a 48-inch long, 20-inch wide, 18-inch tall solid oak table with a natural oak finish and a matte clear coat. It's handmade by a local craftsman; the top has a few light scratches and one small dent along the right edge where a leg was tightened last month. One corner has a tiny brass protective bracket that's worn from moves. The table was a gift from my mom and holds a lot of sentimental value, especially the memory of weekend coffee chats. If anyone found it near the Alexandria Mall area, by the food court, please reach out—I'd be really grateful to have it back.

Black leather briefcase with red interior

I lost my black leather Samsonite executive briefcase yesterday around 3pm near the Alexandria Mall on Masonic Drive. It's a well-worn case with a dent on the bottom-right corner and a zipper that sticks a bit. Inside there’s a red satin lining, a small tan padfolio, and a lime-green sticky note on the inner lid that reads 'For John'—a detail that sticks out. This briefcase holds important work documents and, honestly, has sentimental value, so I’d really appreciate it if it’s returned.

Nintendo Switch OLED with neon Joy-Cons lost

Yesterday around 3pm I lost my Nintendo Switch OLED near the Starbucks on MacArthur Drive, right outside the Alexandria Mall area in Central Louisiana. It's the white console with neon red and neon blue Joy-Cons attached, and the dock has a faint scratch along the top edge. It sits in a galaxy-pattern silicone case, and there's a small MVP sticker on the back next to a TechGuard screen protector. This device is really important to my family - it's my son's favorite gadget, and it was a gift from his grandmother. I'm hoping to get it back. If anyone found it, email me to help reunite us.
