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 Fort Lauderdale 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 Fort Lauderdale in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost postcards from my trip in Fort Lauderdale

I was walking along Las Olas Boulevard on Tuesday at 6:45 p.m. when I noticed my stack of postcards I’d saved for a year had disappeared from my tote. They’re just travel mementos—sunset shots of Fort Lauderdale Beach, a sketch of the Bonnet House, and a few old handwriting notes tucked inside. Losing them felt like losing a piece of my trip, and I can’t shake the ache of not knowing where they ended up. If they turn up anywhere near the Riverwalk, the Beachfront promenade, or by the Fort Lauderdale airport, I’d be grateful for any help.

Toasters lost near Las Olas Blvd.

On Friday around 6:45 PM I was unloading groceries in my Fort Lauderdale condo just off East Sunrise Boulevard, about a block from Las Olas Boulevard. When I turned back, my two toasters were gone from the kitchen counter. One is a chrome vintage model, the other a black stainless one—both practical, and the chrome one was a gift from my grandmother. I retraced through the hallway to the lobby and out onto the street, hoping I’d find them, but no luck. I’m holding out hope a neighbor picked them up and can bring them back so I can start breakfasts again.

Lost Driver's License in Fort Lauderdale

Last Tuesday around 6:15 p.m., I lost my driver's license after a stroll along Las Olas Boulevard near the Riverwalk. I retraced my steps from the Riverside Market to the Stranahan House, asking a few vendors along the way, but I didn't find it. This ID is crucial for my upcoming flight, and the thought of being unable to travel is making me anxious. If someone picked it up, I hope it's kept safe and turned in at the nearest desk so the owner can claim it through the proper channels.

Missing 15-year-old Omar Khan, blue hoodie

I am posting because my 15-year-old cousin Omar Khan has gone missing since yesterday around 6pm. We were at Fort Lauderdale Beach, near A1A and the Bonnet House area, and when I turned around he was gone. He is about 5 feet 5 inches tall, slim, with short curly black hair. He was wearing a blue hoodie with white drawstrings, gray joggers, and white sneakers. He has a distinctive small star-shaped freckle under his left eye and wears a black beaded bracelet on his left wrist. I last saw him near the seafront walkway between Fort Lauderdale Beach Park and Las Olas Blvd. This is really worrying; he means a lot to our family, and I am hoping for any information.

DeWalt 20V cordless drill, yellow/black

I lost my DeWalt 20V cordless drill yesterday around 3pm near the Home Depot lot on Sunrise Blvd in Fort Lauderdale. The drill is DeWalt, yellow and black, with a slightly worn rubber grip and a recessed switch. The battery has a blue sticker with the number 12 on it, and the black hard case shows a few scrapes from job sites. It was my go-to tool for small home projects and means a lot to me; I'd really like to get it back for work and personal repairs. If you found it, please DM me and I can identify the contents of the case and confirm a few distinguishing marks.
