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 Morgantown 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 Morgantown in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost utensils after potluck near Morgantown Public Library

I lost my utensils after helping clean up at the potluck behind the Morgantown Public Library on High Street, around 7:20 p.m. last Friday. It's a small dented silver set -- two forks, a spoon, and a black-handled knife -- that I always carry for family meals and camping trips. I remember setting my tote down near the folding table by the food truck, then turning to laugh with a friend, and when I looked back they were gone. They might still be on the ground near the curb or tucked into someone's jacket pocket after the bustle. If someone finds them, I'd be grateful to have them back; they're just part of my weekend routine.

Lost: Stamps in Morgantown

I’m posting from Morgantown, West Virginia, because I can’t shake the memory of my stamps disappearing. I was by the Morgantown Public Library on Spruce Street around 6:15 PM today, and I realized the little binder of stamps wasn’t in my bag anymore. The set includes a few mint-condition international stamps from my grandmother’s collection, plus a new sheet I’d saved for a project. They’re not priceless, but they carry the family stories of travel, letters, and love. If someone turned them in, I’d be so grateful to be reunited with a piece of home.

Lost passport near downtown Morgantown

I was rushing to catch a flight after a weekend visit and realized my passport was missing around 7:15 p.m. last Friday near the Morgantown Farmers Market on High Street. The passport is a blue U.S. passport tucked in a worn leather sleeve that smells faintly of rain. I felt a jolt of panic and then a stubborn hope that someone honest might have picked it up and left it somewhere safe. The campus lights glowed behind the bridge as I walked back and forth, muttering to myself, wishing I hadn't been careless. If it's found, I hope it ends up back where it belongs, with its owner.

Lost chargers near Morgantown Farmers Market

Hi, I’m Jordan Reed. I lost my chargers around 8:05 PM last Tuesday near the Morgantown Farmers Market on High Street after my backpack slid off my shoulder; the chargers spilled out and vanished into the evening crowd. I remember bending to pick them up and noticing one plug sticking out of the pocket, but the cords disappeared. They belong to my laptop and phone—both essential for an undergrad thesis due soon. I’m anxious and a bit frazzled, wondering if someone picked them up thinking they were stray cables. If you found them, please keep them safe until we can reconnect them with their owner.

Lost Hats near Morgantown campus

I was at the Morgantown Farmers Market around 5:30 p.m. last Saturday when a gust tore my Hats from my tote. One is a gray knit with a little pom-pom; the other is a black sun hat with a ribbon I’ve kept for years. I walked the stalls by the WVU Student Union and along University Avenue, calling out, but the wind kept pulling them away. Losing Hats felt like losing a piece of home—especially the knit one I wore during last winter’s cold snaps. If you saw Hats near the market, please let me know.
