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 Eastern CT 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 Eastern CT in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost swimsuits at Ocean Beach Park

I lost my swimsuits last Saturday around 7:15 pm at Ocean Beach Park in New London, CT. The water had a jade shimmer as the sun sank, and the gulls cried over the pier. I had just finished a late dip and left my towel and bag on a chair near the lifeguard stand by the main entrance. When I looked back, the swimsuits were gone. The cobalt-blue two-piece has a small tear on the left hip that I stitched myself. I'm anxious and hopeful—these suits aren’t easy to replace, and they carry memories of a family trip. If you spotted them near the snack shack or along the boardwalk, please let me know through the site.

Lost wrist watches outside East Lyme Public Library

Hi, I'm Mia Delgado. Yesterday around 7:15 pm, I realized my Wrist Watches were LOST outside the East Lyme Public Library after a quick stroll along Main Street. The two watches, one silver with a leather strap and one black with a thin steel band, are meaningful to me—a family keepsake from my grandmother. I’m holding onto hope someone found them and left them somewhere safe. If you came across them, please drop them at the library so I can reclaim them.

lost dresses after mall event in Eastern CT

Hi, I’m Nora Flynn from Eastern CT, and I can’t find my dresses after a charity fashion sale at Crystal Mall in Waterford. At 3:15 p.m. Sunday, I left a tote containing two dresses near the main entrance by Macy’s, and when I returned, the tote was gone. They include a light blue bridesmaid dress and a black cocktail dress, both with delicate lace. This is for a friend’s wedding next month, and I’m anxious about replacements. If you happened to spot anything matching those items near the Crystal Mall food court, please help.

lost DVDs from movie night, Eastern CT

I lost a stack of DVDs during a Saturday evening in Eastern CT. On Saturday around 5:15 PM, near the East Lyme Public Library fountain, I realized my DVDs weren't in my tote—I must have dropped them along the sidewalk. They’re a small collection I’ve built up over the years, mostly comedies and a few indie titles. I’d planned a low-key movie night and I’m hoping someone found them and kept them safe. If you’ve seen them, please help me reunite them with their owner by posting here.

Lost Chargers in Eastern CT

I was at the Groton Town Center Café on Route 1 around 1:10 PM this past Tuesday when I realized my Chargers were missing from my backpack. I rely on them daily for work and travel, so the moment of realization felt like a jolt. I retraced my steps, checked the café tables, and asked staff, but no luck. If someone finds them, please know I’m grateful, and I’d love to get them back through this site.

Lost sports equipment near Mohegan Sun, CT

I was at the Mohegan Sun area in Uncasville, Eastern CT, Connecticut, United States, around 2:15 PM on Sunday when I realized my Equipment for Various Sports was missing from my bag. The red duffel held a mix of gear; a pair of soccer cleats, a basketball, two tennis rackets, and a damp water bottle rolling around the bottom. I must have set it down somewhere between the outdoor courts and the parking lot and walked away without noticing. I am hoping someone honest picked it up and kept it safe until I can claim it.
