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 Lehigh Valley 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 Lehigh Valley in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost sheet music near ArtsQuest Center, Bethlehem, PA

I was finishing a late rehearsal at the Musikfest Café inside ArtsQuest Center around 8:30 PM on Tuesday. My binder with sheet music for two duets slipped from my bag as I walked through the SteelStacks plaza. The pages are crumpled at the edges with a coffee stain on the top page; the pieces are Beethoven and a modern arrangement I’m learning for a recital. This music means a lot to me, and I’d be lost without it. If you’ve seen it, please drop it at the ArtsQuest Center lost-and-found, or mention it at the information desk; I’ll check there after class.

Lost holiday decorations in Lehigh Valley, PA.

On December 9, around 7:45 PM, I realized my holiday decorations were missing after I finished decorating the living room at my sister's house in Allentown, in the Lehigh Valley. The box held a ceramic snowman, a string of multicolored lights, and a handmade garland. I retraced my steps through the living room, foyer, and out to the porch near Market Street in downtown Allentown, but I can't remember where I last saw them. Those decorations carry memories of holidays with my grandma, and the empty bin makes this season feel heavier than usual.

Silver-tone necklace with crescent moon pendant

I lost my silver-tone necklace yesterday around 3pm after leaving a cafe near the PPL Center in Allentown. It’s a slim 18-inch chain with a dainty crescent moon pendant, about 1 cm tall, and a tiny red ruby accent on the moon. The chain shows a slight tarnish and there’s a small scratch near the clasp from daily wear. I think I dropped it while juggling a bag on Hamilton Street, near the Starbucks. It’s really special to me—it was a gift from my sister and has sentimental value; I really need it back.

Gold-tone bracelet with star charm and initials

I lost my gold-tone bracelet yesterday around 3pm near the PPL Center on Hamilton Street in Allentown. It's a slim 6.5-inch chain with a tiny star charm and the initials 'J.M.' engraved on the clasp; the finish is a little brushed and one link shows a tiny dent from a fall. This bracelet was a gift from my grandmother and means a lot to me, I wear it almost every day and would be crushed to have it back. If anyone found it, please reach out—I'm in Lehigh Valley and happy to pick it up from anywhere nearby.

Seiko 5 Sports watch—silver, black dial, initials AK

I lost my Seiko 5 Sports watch yesterday around 3pm. It's a silver-tone stainless steel case with a black dial, white markers, and a 42mm face, on a blue nylon strap. The back is engraved with the initials AK, and there is a tiny scratch near the 2 o'clock crystal. I last had it in the Promenade Shops at Saucon Valley parking lot, near the Target entrance, in Lehigh Valley. This watch has sentimental value; it was a gift from my dad and helps me feel connected to him. I really need it back.

Blue Nike Dri-Fit shorts, lime waistband, size M

I lost my blue Nike Dri-Fit shorts, size M, yesterday around 3pm near the outdoor workout area behind the Lehigh Valley Mall on Cedar Crest Boulevard in Allentown. They’re navy blue with a bright lime-green waistband and a reflective Nike swoosh on the left leg. There’s a small snag along the inner pocket and a faint coffee stain on the hem from a race-day pit stop. These shorts are my go-to for long runs and training; they hold a lot of sentimental value because they were a gift from my late aunt and I wore them for my first half marathon. If found, I’d really appreciate getting them back. Email me at [email protected].
