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 Houma 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 Houma in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

LOST: Enamel pins near Houma Courthouse on Main St

Late yesterday afternoon around 3:20 p.m., I realized my enamel pins had disappeared from my backpack while I was near the Houma Courthouse on Main Street. The pins are small, about the size of a fingertip, with designs including a lighthouse, a seashell, and a pink heart. They were a gift from my grandmother, and losing them feels like losing a memory. I walked along Main Street, checked a few nearby cafés, and spoke with a couple of shop workers, but no luck yet. If someone has picked them up, please return them through this site so I can have them back.

Lost paintings near Main Street Market, Houma

I lost my two paintings last Thursday around 4:30 PM near the Houma Main Street Market, by the old Terrebonne Parish courthouse. We had been cleaning up after a small neighborhood art show when a sudden gust knocked my tote loose and the canvases slid away onto the pavement. One canvas shows a warm sunset over Bayou Terrebonne, the other a swamp scene with Spanish moss and cypress trees; both are dear to me and carry the memory of a quiet moment by the river. I keep replaying that moment and I worry someone picked them up to keep them safe until I can find them.

Lost: Xylophones in Houma downtown area

I’m posting this after realizing my two xylophones are missing from the rehearsal space at the Houma Civic Center on Main Street around 5:45 PM yesterday. They’re wooden, compact instruments with bright red mallets tucked into a black case, the cases showing a few scuffs from travel. I rely on them for our kids’ music workshops, so I’m anxious about tomorrow’s class. If you were at the civic center last night and happened to see them, please respond through the site so we can work out a pickup. I’ll be grateful to the person who helps bring them back.

Lost bus tickets near Houma Civic Center

On Tuesday at about 7:45 p.m., I realized my bus tickets were gone from my jacket pocket somewhere between the bus stop and the Houma-Terrebonne Civic Center. The glow of streetlights on Barrow Street and the river breeze are burned into my memory as I retraced my steps along Barrow Street and up Main Street, checking under benches and around trash cans, but they did not show up. Those tickets were essential for my trip and for the week ahead, so a sense of worry has settled in, mixed with a stubborn hope that someone might find them and return them. If you happened to see them, I would be grateful for any help.

Lost organizers on Main Street, Houma

I realized my organizers were missing around 12:15 p.m. on Tuesday while I stood on Main Street by Terrebonne Parish Library in Houma, jotting notes in a tote bag. The organizers are blue fabric with clear plastic compartments and a small label on the front. I had set the tote on a bench by the library entrance while I checked a map, then ducked into a cafe across the street for a minute. When I came back, they were gone. I’m anxious about losing them; they held important schedules and contact lists. If anyone found them, please keep them safe.

Lost Breeds notebook in Houma, Louisiana

I lost my Breeds notebook sometime Friday evening in downtown Houma. I last had it around 8:15 p.m. when I was parked by the Terrebonne Parish Library and walking back to my car after a quick bite on Main Street. It's a small, worn blue notebook with a doodle of a terrier on the cover and a few breed cards tucked inside. I retraced my steps along the riverfront, checked the car, and asked a couple of vendors, but the night crowds swallowed it up. It matters to me because it holds notes from a local dog show and a family recipe tied to our beagle. I’m keeping hope alive that someone picked it up by mistake.
