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 Harrisonburg 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 Harrisonburg in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost postcards I collected during a Harrisonburg trip.

Last night around 3:15 PM, I was sorting through postcards from our trip to Harrisonburg when I realized a few were missing from my tote. I had left the tote on a bench near Court Square while I grabbed a quick coffee and snapped a photo of the courthouse. When I returned, the postcards were gone and I felt a real sting of loss—their images capture our family day together. This morning at 7:40 AM I walked the block along North Main Street again, checking the benches, the gift shop stool outside, and the little fountain area. If someone found them, please know how special they are to me and return them to the site.

LOST equipment near Court Square fountain

Last Friday after our late practice I realized my bag with sports gear was missing. I left it on the bench by the fountain at Court Square, downtown Harrisonburg, around 7:20 pm. Inside were soccer cleats, shin guards, a basketball, and a water bottle with my initials. It's not fancy gear, but it keeps our weekend pickup games going, and the cleats were handed down from my older brother. I’ve retraced my steps through City Park and along Court Street, but the bag never turned up. I keep hoping someone who was there on the plaza that evening might remember the bag and kept it somewhere safe.

Lost stamps near Court Square, Harrisonburg.

I realized my stamps were missing this morning after a hurried walk to Court Square in Harrisonburg around 9:45 AM. They were tucked inside a small red album with a brass clasp, the kind that holds a dozen keepsakes from trips abroad. Some of the stamps are rare and hold memories from family letters, so losing them feels personal and heartbreaking. If someone happens to see this listing and kept them by accident, I would be grateful to have them back via the site.

Lost Student ID in downtown Harrisonburg

I realized my Student ID was missing around 9:15 a.m. this Tuesday after helping a friend set up at the Harrisonburg Farmers Market by Court Square. I retraced my steps along Main Street and checked the seating area by the gazebo, but the ID hadn’t turned up. The badge is in a blue plastic sleeve with my name and a small scratch on the corner. It’s essential for class access, meal plans, and library checkouts, and I’m anxious about losing it. If someone found it, I’d be grateful to recover it and get back on with my day.

Silver Seiko 5 watch, black dial

Hey, I lost my silver Seiko 5 automatic watch yesterday around 3pm near Court Square in downtown Harrisonburg after grabbing coffee at a cafe. Its stainless steel case wears a black dial with a date window at 3 o'clock, and the black leather strap has light tan stitching. There's a tiny scratch on the crystal at the 2 o'clock area, and the back is engraved with my initials 'P.P.' on the clasp. It has sentimental value—the watch was a gift from my grandmother, and I really need it back; if you found it, I’d be grateful to get it back.

Black Bosca leather briefcase with brass latch

I lost my black Bosca 14-inch leather briefcase yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Main Street in Harrisonburg. It's genuine leather, a bit scuffed on the bottom right, with a brass latch and a tan interior. Inside there's a USB drive labeled 'Projects' and a small notebook with my initials 'P.P.' on the cover, plus a tiny dent on the lower-right corner and a brass tag etched with 'PP' hanging from the handle. It was a gift from my mentor and holds important work materials, so I’d really appreciate it being returned—please email [email protected] if you have any info.
