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 Dundee 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 Dundee in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost brooches near the V&A Dundee

I was strolling along the Dundee Waterfront after a chilly evening stroll, and around 6:15 pm yesterday I realized my brooches had vanished from my coat pocket. I must have brushed past a railing near the V&A Dundee during a quick photo stop of the river. They’re a small pair: one silver with a blue stone, the other brass with a tiny fleur-de-lis. Losing them hit me hard—the memories they carry from my gran’s jewelry box suddenly felt far away in the salty Dundee air. If someone picked them up, I’d be grateful to have them back where they belong.

Lost postcards in Dundee

Yesterday at 11:20 a.m., I was walking along Commercial Street toward the V&A Dundee when I realized my postcards from our Glasgow trip were missing from my tote. They’re a neat stack of cream cards, some with seaside photos, tied with a faded blue ribbon. My grandmother used to send me cards from every holiday, and losing them feels like a piece of home slipping away. If you found a stray bundle near the V&A Dundee or along the Dundee Waterfront, please report it here on the site through me.

Lost Dundee Fringe Festival ticket stub

I lost my printed Dundee Fringe Festival ticket stub yesterday around 3pm. It's a white card with a blue header and the event logo, about the size of a credit card, with a small tear at the bottom-right corner. The text lists Caird Hall, North Street, and the show title, plus a seat note like Section B, Row 12, Seat 14, with a partially visible barcode on the back. I was wandering near the Wellgate area and probably dropped it along North Street outside the Caird Hall while juggling my umbrella. It has sentimental value because my friend bought it for me as a belated birthday gift, and I would really appreciate getting it back if found.

Korg TM-60 metronome, black with orange backlight

I lost my black Korg TM-60 digital metronome yesterday around 3pm outside the Wellgate Centre on Exchange Street in Dundee. It's a small rectangular device with an orange backlight I rely on for tempo practice. The back has a tiny blue 'Studio Pro' sticker and there's a small scratch along the top left edge from a drop last week. It usually lives in a black neoprene pouch with a red zipper, which I left on the bench outside the Wellgate while I popped into a shop. I use it daily for practice and rehearsals, so it would mean a lot to get it back.

Black leather Samsonite briefcase with red tag

I lost my black leather Samsonite briefcase yesterday around 3pm near the V&A Dundee on Riverside Drive. It's a medium-sized case, mostly matte black, with a silver zipper and a small dent on the bottom-right corner. A red leather tag hangs from the handle and the interior lining is bright blue; inside there's a faded photo of my late father tucked into a pocket and a well-worn notebook with my client list. It also contains my work badge and a few personal notes—really important to me to get back because it feels like a part of my daily routine. If you found it, please drop me a note; I’d be grateful to hear from you.

Limited edition green vinyl records

I’m hoping someone picked them up yesterday around 4pm near the McManus Galleries on Albert Square in Dundee. They’re two limited edition 1993 pressings on translucent green vinyl, still in their original matte black sleeves. One sleeve has a tiny circular red star sticker in the bottom corner; the other shows a small crease along the bottom edge and a slightly faded barcode on the back. They’re part of my late grandfather’s collection, which makes them really sentimental to me and I’m desperate to get them back. If you’ve seen them around Dundee, reach me at [email protected].
