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 Mendocino County 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 Mendocino County in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost Saxophones after show on Fort Bragg Main St.

I’m a local saxophonist and I left my Saxophones after a small show on Fort Bragg’s Main Street around 2:35 p.m. Friday. They were in a black hard case with two horns, the necks peeking out, and I’m sure I left them near the backstage area behind the venue by the harbor. Those instruments are how I tell my stories on stage, and I’m frantic about letting them disappear into someone else’s hands. If they’re safe somewhere, I hope they’ll be turned in to the venue’s lost-and-found so I can get back to playing soon.

Lost Parrots in Mendocino County, CA

LOST my two parrots late Friday night, around 7:45 PM, from the enclosed yard near the Mendocino County Fairgrounds. I last saw them perched on the back deck railing and now I’ve walked the yard, called their names, and checked every perch inside the house. They’re two bright parrots—one with blue on its wings and the other with yellow patches—and they answer to simple phrases I taught them. If anyone spotted them near Mendocino Headlands State Park or along the coastal trail, please keep them safe—their family misses them dearly.

Lost travel visas in Mendocino County

I realized I was missing my travel visas this morning after a meeting in Ukiah around 4:30 PM. I was driving along Highway 1 and stopped briefly at the Glass Beach overlook in Fort Bragg to stretch my legs, and that’s when I last recall having them in a blue folder on the passenger seat. Since then, I’ve retraced my steps and searched the car, the motel lobby, and a few rest stops with no luck. They’re essential documents and I’m anxious about being unable to travel without them.

Lost sheet music near Glass Beach

Hi, I'm Emily Carter. I lost a bundle of sheet music I was carrying after a small community jam at Glass Beach on Sunday around 6:20 PM. It's a worn blue binder with a seagull doodle on the cover and a few notes circled in red. I must have left it on a bench near the Glass Beach parking lot, and now I feel the missing melodies slipping away with it.

Lost Nintendo Switch OLED in gray case

I lost my Nintendo Switch OLED model this afternoon around 3pm near Redwood Coffee on Main Street in Ukiah, Mendocino County. It’s in a gray protective case with Neon Blue and Neon Red Joy-Cons, and there’s a panda sticker on the back plus a screen protector with a small scratch in the lower left corner. The console has sentimental value for me—it's how I unwind after long shifts, and I had saved a few indie games there that really mean a lot. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; you can reach me at [email protected].

Gray Nike running shoes, size 9, teal accents

I lost my gray Nike running shoes yesterday around 3pm outside the Mendocino Hotel on Main Street in Mendocino, Mendocino County. They're men's size 9, fairly well used but still in decent shape, gray with teal accents and a white sole. The left heel has a blue duct-tape patch and the right sole has a tiny red thread stitched into it—easy to spot if you're looking. They were a gift from my sister, so they mean a lot to me and I really need them back for daily runs. If you found them, please drop a note here or share any info you have; I can arrange a pickup.
