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 Jersey Shore 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 Jersey Shore in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost sheet music near Seaside Heights boardwalk.

On Saturday around 11:20 a.m., I set my bag down on a bench near the Seaside Heights boardwalk arcade to tie my shoes, and when I looked back, my sheet music for the recital was gone. It's a stack of piano duets and a single violin piece, all in a thin silver binder with a few water stains from the spray of the ocean. I practiced those pieces on the boardwalk yesterday and daydreamed about the performance, so losing them felt like a disruption to a small dream. If someone found them, please message me through the site so we can arrange a safe pickup in Seaside Heights.

Lost: Toasters near Seaside Heights boardwalk

I live in a small beach cottage near the Seaside Heights boardwalk, and I realized at 7:40 p.m. on Thursday that my toasters were gone from the kitchen counter. They’re just a plain stainless steel pair, but they were a wedding gift from my grandmother and mean a lot to me. I checked the kitchen, the porch, and the dining area along Ocean Avenue, but nothing turned up. If you saw two mismatched toasters somewhere near the boardwalk around that time, please keep them safe and help me bring them home.

Gold ring with emerald at Jersey Shore

I lost my gold ring with a small emerald yesterday around 3pm on the Jersey Shore boardwalk, near the Silver Sands arcade on Ocean Avenue in Seaside Heights. It’s a slim 14k gold band, about a size 6, with a single emerald set in a simple prong setting, and there’s a faint scratch along the inner edge. Inside the band I had the initials 'A.R.' engraved for a bit of extra meaning. It was a gift from my grandmother and means a lot to me, I’m really hoping to find it today. If anyone found it, please reach out—I’d be forever grateful to get it back.

Space Gray iPad Pro 11-inch in blue case

Lost my Space Gray iPad Pro 11-inch in a blue silicone case yesterday around 3pm near the Point Pleasant Beach boardwalk by Jenkinson's Pier. The case has a tiny maple leaf sticker on the back and the Apple Pencil clips magnetically to the side. The screen protector has a small scratch, but the tablet otherwise looks and works fine. It holds precious family photos from last summer and some work notes, so it feels sentimental and I really need it back. If you found it, drop me a note here or at [email protected]. Thanks so much!

Red paperback Seaside Sketches with lighthouse bookmark

I was reading a small red paperback called Seaside Sketches when I realized I left it yesterday around 5pm. It’s a paperback, about the size of a postcard, softcover with a creased spine and a red cover that features a white lighthouse. I think I left it outside the Stone Pony on Ocean Avenue in Asbury Park, Jersey Shore, after a quick stop at the boardwalk. It has sentimental value—it was a gift from my grandma last summer, and I was hoping to reread a favorite passage this week. Inside, there’s a tiny blue ink doodle of a lighthouse on page 3 and a coffee ring stain on the back cover. If you found it, please drop me an email; I’d be so grateful to get it back.

Black Anker PowerCore 10K with teal stripe

I lost my black Anker PowerCore 10,000mAh portable charger yesterday around 3pm near the Seaside Heights boardwalk by the arcade and the Ferris wheel. It’s a compact black brick with a teal stripe along the side and a small dent on the bottom corner from a drop last month. There’s a blue star sticker on the back I added to spot it in a crowd. It was a gift from my sister and I really need it back—I rely on it every day at the Jersey Shore.
