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 Jackson 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 Jackson in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost appliances near Capitol Street, Jackson

Hi, I'm Maggie Thompson. I lost a bag of small kitchen appliances around 7:15 p.m. yesterday in the apartment complex on Capitol Street, Jackson. Inside was a stainless toaster oven, a blender, and a coffee maker with a red lid. I had just finished cleaning the kitchen and stepped out to take a quick phone call, and when I came back the bag was gone. The hallway was quiet, and a neighbor mentioned seeing a bag by the lobby near the stairs leading to State Street. Those appliances are essential to my daily routine, and I’m devastated by their loss. If anyone found them, please keep them safe until I can reclaim them.

LOST travel visas near the Mississippi Capitol

I am Lillian Moore, a nurse in Jackson. I was leaving the Old Capitol Museum around 7:42 PM on Saturday, and I headed toward the sidewalk near the Mississippi State Capitol steps. My travel visas were tucked in a tan leather folder with a red cover, the kind with a small label that says Visas. The folder is a bit worn, and I am anxious because I have a flight in two days. If someone found them, I would be endlessly grateful; those papers mean more than money to me. I am hopeful they will turn up near the capitol steps or at the Old Capitol entrance.

Lost holiday decorations in Jackson

Hi there, I’m Grace Coleman, and I misplaced the holiday decorations I planned to bring out for a small gathering in Jackson. I last had them around 7:45 p.m. yesterday, when I wandered through the Fondren District near LeFleur's Bluff State Park. The box held red-and-green lights, a long garland, and a little felt star ornament that goes on the door. I’m feeling a bit frustrated because I was hoping to surprise my family with a festive welcome this weekend.

Red hardcover poetry book with gold embossing

I’m really hoping someone picked up my red hardcover poetry book with gold embossing. I lost it yesterday around 3pm near the Jackson Public Library on Main Street, just outside the Bean & Barrel coffee shop. It’s about 200 pages with a fox-shaped bookmark tucked between pages and the gold embossing on the spine is starting to wear. It was a gift from my grandmother and has serious sentimental value—I’d be so grateful to get it back.

Cordless drill with yellow Makita, two batteries

I am hoping to recover my cordless drill I lost yesterday around 4pm near the Jackson Public Library on Main Street. It is a yellow Makita 18V cordless drill, a Tools & Hardware staple for my home projects, with a black grippy handle that has a small dent and a red sticker with the initials MP on the battery. It came with two batteries, and one of them has a cracked casing. The drill lives in a slightly scuffed hard case with a blue duct-tape repair along the zipper. It has sentimental value because it was a gift from my grandfather, and I really need it back to finish a home project. If anyone stumbled upon it, please message me, thank you so much.

Keys on red heart fob with two brass keys

I lost my keys yesterday around 3pm near the Jackson Public Library on West Capitol Street, in the parking lot behind the building. It's a small set on a black leather keychain with a red heart-shaped fob; there are two brass keys—one stamped Kwikset and the other Schlage—plus a silver car key. One of the keys has a tiny dent near the teeth, and the red heart fob is a bit faded but still legible. These keys open my apartment and a family heirloom lock, so they have sentimental value and I really need them back. If you've seen them, email me at [email protected] and we can arrange a quick pickup near the library.
