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 synthesizers near downtown Alexandria, Louisiana

On Tuesday around 3:15 PM, after a quick set downtown in Alexandria, Louisiana, I realized my synthesizers were missing from the back of my van. They’re in a matte-black rolling case with a blue sticker on the handle; inside are a compact synth module, a small keyboard, and a handful of cables. These aren’t just gear to me—they’re my portable studio and the heartbeat of my gigs. I’m hoping someone nearby saw them and can help reunite them with me through the site, especially if they turned up near the Red River’s riverfront in downtown.

Lost paintings near Alexandria Museum of Art

I was at the Alexandria Museum of Art in Central Louisiana around 11:30 a.m. last Thursday, setting up a display and stepping away for a quick break. When I returned, two paintings were gone from the easel by the main entrance. One is a landscape with pine trees and a gray sky; the other is an abstract with cobalt blues and golds swirling across white. They were both framed and tied with a green ribbon. They mean a lot to me—their loss would be a hard hit for the show. If you saw two paintings missing from the Main Street entrance that morning, please contact me through the site.

Lost Puppies in Central Louisiana

Today at 9:15 a.m. I realized my two puppies were missing after a quick stroll around Riverfront Park in downtown Alexandria. They slipped their leash during a moment of distraction and vanished into the nearby neighborhoods. One is a small brindle terrier mix, the other a fluffy cream-colored pug mix—both friendly and curious but shy with strangers. I’ve searched the park, checked with neighbors, and posted here with the hope that someone might have spotted them near Oak Street or along Kisatchie National Forest boundaries. I miss them terribly and want them home safe.

LOST DVDs near Riverfront Park, Alexandria

I LOST my DVDs last Friday around 7:45 p.m., after leaving a bookstore and strolling along the Riverfront Park area in downtown Alexandria. I had them tucked in a tote and stopped to check a map near the Riverfront Center, then walked a few steps toward the river when a breeze or a passerby might have nudged them away. I searched the grassy lot behind the Alexandria Riverfront Center and along the sidewalk by the parking area, but the stack wasn’t there anymore. The collection means a lot to me—classic films and a couple of documentaries I’ve kept for years. If someone found them, I’d be grateful to retrieve them.

Lost organizers in Central Louisiana

This morning at 8:20 a.m., I realized my set of desk organizers was lost from the kitchen counter in Central Louisiana. They're a sturdy wooden tray with a brass handle and several divided compartments, the kind I use for organizing pens, papers, and receipts before our weekly volunteer meeting. Losing them has thrown off my prep for the fundraiser in two days and left me scrambling for a spare. The missing items hurt a sense of control, and I just hope they turn up in the right place.

Lost action figures near Alexandria Mall, Central Louisiana.

On Sunday around 4:15 PM, I was at the Alexandria Mall in Central Louisiana, taking a break outside the food court. My tiny box of action figures sat beside me on a bench while I checked a text, and when I looked back they were gone. They’re four vintage sci‑fi figures with bright paint, one with a blue cape, the others in red and silver. These aren’t just toys to me—they remind me of my late uncle and all the summers we spent in this town. If you saw a small box with figures near the mall entrance or by the fountain, please keep them safe.
