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 Hilton Head 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 Hilton Head in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost hand tools near Coligny Beach, Hilton Head

I was wrapping up a quick project outside my rental near Coligny Beach Park when I realized my hand tools were missing from my tote. The kit includes a gray hammer, several screwdrivers with bright red and blue handles, and a yellow tape measure I bought last year. I rely on that set for small fixes around the house and on the island, so losing it felt like losing a piece of my daily routine. If someone happened to pick them up, I’d be grateful to have them back where they belong.

Lost: Synthesizers in Hilton Head, SC

I lost my synthesizers after a late practice along Hilton Head's Coligny Plaza boardwalk around 7:15 PM on Tuesday. In a black rolling flight case with silver latches, I had two synths inside—one modular unit and a compact keyboard with a red trim. I retraced the path by the Coligny Plaza fountain and toward the beach access, but the moment I stopped, the evening grew quiet and empty. These instruments are my livelihood and my outlet for every gig, so the idea of them out there in someone else's hands leaves me anxious and heart-sore.

Lost board games near Coligny Plaza, Hilton Head

I was packing for a family game night at our Hilton Head rental around 7:15 p.m. last Friday when the board games I brought slipped from the tote and were lost near the Coligny Plaza entrance. They’re a mismatched bundle of classic titles, including a big, purple box that always travels with us. I’ve retraced steps along the shaded path by Coligny Plaza and even asked the shop staff, but no luck so far. If someone found them, I’d be grateful for their safe return to their owner's home, and I’m keeping hopeful they’re nearby.

Lost Drones near Coligny Beach Park, Hilton Head

At 3:20 PM on Saturday, I was piloting my drone over Coligny Beach Park when a sudden gust swung it off course and it drifted behind some sea oats toward the dunes. I watched it disappear from the sky and I’ve been hoping to spot the controller light again ever since. It’s a small drone my friend gave me for my own film project, and the footage it holds means a lot to me. If someone found it around Coligny Beach or the nearby boardwalk, I’d be forever grateful to have it back.

Lost holiday decorations in Hilton Head

I was helping decorate the house and came back to the curb by Coligny Plaza around 6:30 p.m. last Friday to find my holiday decorations missing. The box included a red-and-green garland, a string of LED lights, a wreath, and a small wooden star topper. I am stressed because the charity display is next week and those decorations are not easy to replace. If anyone found a box near Coligny Plaza fountain or along the sidewalk by the plaza, please check the site—I would be grateful to get them back.

Lost DVDs in Hilton Head

I’m Grace Bennett, and I realized my stack of DVDs was missing after a stroll along Hilton Head Island yesterday around 4:40 PM. I had sat on a bench outside Coligny Plaza near the Coligny Beach access to rest my feet, and by the time I checked again, the slim black case was gone. The set includes a mix of family favorites, clearly labeled with my handwriting. I’m worried they’ll turn up on someone else’s shelf, but I hope a quick scan of the area might jog a memory. If someone found them, I’d appreciate their returning them.
