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 Modesto 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 Modesto in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost travel adapters in downtown Modesto

I was rushing to pack for an early trip when I realized my travel adapters were missing. I had them in a small gray pouch beside my blue jacket at Graceada Park around 6:15 p.m. last Friday, as the sun sank behind the elm trees. The spot I last sat was a wooden bench near the playground, with the fountain just a few steps away. Losing them means I can’t charge my devices on the road, which is rough when I’m juggling flights and trains. If someone happened to tuck them somewhere safe near Graceada Park, I’d be endlessly grateful.

Lost: Paintings near Gallo Center

Hi, I lost a set of four paintings around 3:45 pm last Sunday near the Gallo Center for the Arts in Modesto. I’d just left a downtown exhibit and wandered toward 11th Street when I realized they were missing. The frames are black and simple, about 18x24 inches each, and the paintings depict quiet landscapes in warm browns and greens. They were painted by my late aunt and mean a great deal to me; I carried them for comfort during a stressful move. I retraced my steps along I Street and nearby storefronts, hoping to spot a familiar frame, but I didn’t. If found, please return them to the Gallo Center or nearby staff.

Orange zine with blue moon doodle

I lost my orange 6x9 inch zine titled 'Modesto Nights' yesterday around 3pm outside the Modesto Library on I Street. It’s a small, hand-stitched printed matter with a bright orange cover and a blue moon doodle on the front. The pages inside are cream-colored and slightly crinkled from rain, and the first page bears a handwritten inscription: 'To Lena, keep exploring.' The zine is basically a personal collection of poems and sketches; it feels sentimental to me, like a little map of my last year here. If someone found it near the library or the bike racks by the entrance, I’d be grateful to get it back.

Navy North Face parka with faux fur hood

I lost my navy North Face parka yesterday around 3pm outside the Target on McHenry Avenue in Modesto. It's a size large, mid-weight coat with a faux fur-trimmed hood and a small tear at the left cuff. There’s a red silicone panda keychain clipped to the inner pocket, and the zipper pull is a bit loose. The coat is sentimental to me—it was a gift from my mom and kept me warm during winter shifts around downtown Modesto. If anyone found it, please let me know; I’d really appreciate getting it back.
