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 Flint 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 Flint in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

lost kittens near Court Street, Flint

Hi, I'm Noah Bennett. I lost my kittens last night in Flint. They slipped outside my door around 7:45 p.m. while I was bringing groceries into the house near Court Street, just by the Flint Farmers Market, and they vanished toward Riverbank Park. There are two: a grey tabby with a white chest and a calico with a tiny nose stripe. They're small, about eight weeks old, and incredibly curious. I’ve been replaying every street and porch in that neighborhood, hoping they’re safe and someone might have seen them.

LOST: Pocket Watches near Flint Farmers Market.

Lost: Pocket Watches near Flint Farmers Market around 4:45 p.m. today. They're two vintage silver watches on a thin chain, one engraved on the back with 'J.B.' They look well-used but cherished, with minor scratches and a hint of patina. I last had them while walking along Second Street toward the library after a quick coffee run. They mean a lot to me, passed down from my grandfather, and I’m desperate to have them back. If anyone found them, please keep an eye out for a small leather pouch and let the listing be seen by the rightful owner.

LOST: Studs in Flint, Michigan

Hi, I’m Maya Collins, a graphic designer living in Flint. I lost a pair of studs after leaving Genesee Valley Center, near the main entrance, around 2:30 pm last Thursday. They’re small gold hoops with delicate moon charms, the ones I wore to celebrate finishing a big project. They were a gift from my grandma, and losing them stings extra because they carry her memory. I looked around the mall’s corridors, by the food court, and even along Saginaw Street, but nothing turned up. If you’ve seen them around the Genesee Valley Center area, please tuck them away somewhere safe until they’re reunited with me.

Lost brooches from my grandmother; sentimental heirlooms.

Last Friday around 7:40 p.m., I realized the brooches were missing outside the Michigan Theatre on S. Saginaw Street after I stepped out to take a call. They’re a pair: one with a sapphire stone and the other with a small pearl. I’d tucked them in the pocket of my blazer while I chatted with a friend, and when I turned back they were just gone from the bench by the entrance. They belonged to my grandmother, and losing them feels like losing a piece of her—I’m hoping for a friendly return from someone who might have picked them up by mistake.

Lost canines near downtown Flint

I was walking the Flint River Trail behind Cathedral Park around 7:30 pm yesterday when my two dogs bolted and disappeared into the dusk. Scout, a wiry grey terrier with a white blaze, and Willow, a friendly black lab mix, are curious and fearless, and I panicked when they slipped their collars and ran toward the river. I chased along the path toward the old Buick factory area, but the trail winds and I lost sight of them. It would mean the world to have them back safe—these dogs are family, and the house feels quiet without their barking. If you saw them or know where they are, please share through the site so I can bring them home.

LOST scarves in Flint

On Sunday at about 4:30 p.m., I was strolling along Saginaw Street toward the Flint Farmers Market when my scarves slipped from my shoulders during a chilly gust. One is a soft gray knit with a slim red stripe; the other is a thicker charcoal scarf with fringed ends. I retraced my steps past the Market entrance and around the brick storefronts, but the wind kept them hidden from sight. These scarves were gifts from my grandmother, a small warmth I cling to on long winter days. If anyone has them, please keep an eye out in the Market area or along Saginaw Street in downtown Flint.
