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 Travel Visas near Terrebonne

I’m posting this after losing my travel visas this afternoon around 3:20 PM near Terrebonne General Medical Center in Houma. I had walked from the clinic toward Main Street after a quick check-in, and I’m sure I set the red-foldered documents down in the waiting lobby by the cafe. The folder bears my initials and a small sticker. I’m terrified about my embassy appointment next week and the trip I had planned for months. If these visas surface, I’d be eternally grateful to get them back so I can move forward with my plans.

Lost: Photographs in Houma

I’m Cheri LeBlanc, living in Houma, Louisiana. I think I left a bundle of photographs at the Houma Library on Barrow Street around 2:15 PM last Tuesday. Inside the tote were old prints from family trips, some curling at the corners and a few black-and-white portraits. These memories mean more than anything to me, and I’d be grateful to have them back with the family albums. If you recognize them, please keep an eye out for this listing and help reunite them with me.

Lost: Sheet Music in Houma, LA

I lost this Sheet Music in Houma, Louisiana, United States, last night around 7:15 p.m. after rehearsal at the Houma-Terrebonne Public Library, near Barrow Street by the main entrance. The blue binder is a bit tattered, with pages fluttering whenever I flip through. The recital is in two weeks, and those pieces have traveled with me through countless practice rooms. If someone happened to find it, I would be deeply grateful to have it back and safe for the performance.

LOST Remote Controls in Houma

LOST I realized my two remote controls were missing around 9:40 pm yesterday, after I stepped out of the Houma Public Library on Grand Street. One is black with a glossy finish and a bright red power button; the other is matte gray with a small dent in the corner. I searched along Main Street, past the Terrebonne Parish Courthouse steps and the little cafe by the corner, but they weren’t there. I’m anxious because one remote controls the living room TV and the other the sound system my mother depends on every evening.

Stamps lost near Houma Historic District

Last Tuesday at 4:25 p.m., I was sorting through a stamp album on the porch of my aunt's house on Main Street in Houma when a breeze knocked a small leather pouch from the chair. By the time I went inside to grab a drink, the pouch was gone. The air smelled like bayous and creole seasoning, and the sunset washed the brick storefronts along Main Street in warm gold. I’m hoping a careful passerby picked up the stamps and kept them safe until I retrace my steps.

Lost CDs around Main Street, Houma

While cleaning up a box of my dad's old music I left a stack of Cajun blues CDs on the coffee table in my Houma apartment. I stepped out for groceries around 4:45 PM on Tuesday and came back to find the discs gone from the table. They are old, scratched in places with handwritten labels and carry a lot of family history. They have traveled with me through Houma downtown days and late night listening sessions with friends, and now they are just memories in danger of being lost. If you have seen them around Main Street Market or near the Terrebonne Civic Center please keep them safe for me. They mean a lot.
