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 Mankato 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 Mankato in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

lost passport near MSU campus, Mankato

Last Friday around 1:45 PM, I was juggling a coffee order and a quick errand near the Centennial Student Union on the MSU campus in Mankato when I realized my passport was missing from my tote. It was tucked in a brown leather folder with a few travel receipts—the kind of thing you think you’ll always have but forget about in a rush. I’m stressing about upcoming plans and hoping someone handed it in at the security desk or the student union lost-and-found. If you’ve seen it, please hold onto it; I’d be forever grateful.

Red parka jacket with fur hood

I lost my red parka jacket with a faux fur hood yesterday around 3pm near the Target on Madison Ave in Mankato. It's a size large Columbia coat, bright red with black zippers and a small tear on the left sleeve. There’s a blue enamel snowflake pin on the chest and a hidden inner pocket where I keep a photo of my grandmother. It’s really sentimental—gift from her last winter—and I’ve worn it almost every day since. If anyone found it, I’d be so grateful to get it back; I can be reached here.

Nintendo Switch OLED lost near MSU campus yesterday

Hey, I'm pretty sure I dropped my Nintendo Switch OLED yesterday around 3pm near the MSU campus library area on S Front Street in Mankato, by the bike racks outside the library entrance. It's the white base with neon red/blue Joy-Cons, and it came in a gray travel case with a white dragon logo on the zipper. There's a small scratch on the bottom-right of the screen protector, and a blue star sticker on the back. I really need it back—it's my main way to unwind after long classes and it was a gift from my sister last year.

MSU Mankato student ID card

I lost my white Minnesota State University student ID card yesterday around 3pm outside the MSU Bookstore on Stadium Road, near the campus library entrance in Mankato. It's a white plastic card with a blue stripe across the top, my photo on the left and my name in bold black letters; the back has a small coffee stain and a dent on the bottom-right corner. I really need it back because it's my key to borrowing library books and getting into several campus buildings, and it also has sentimental value since it was with me through my first year here. If you find it, please reach out.
