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 North Dakota 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 North Dakota in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost hoops in downtown Fargo

I lost my hoops yesterday around 9:30 p.m. in downtown Fargo, near the Fargo Theatre on 1st Ave. They're a simple silver pair with a tiny heart charm that means a lot to me. I was grabbing a coffee after a late shift and must have dropped them between the bakery and the cinema, somewhere along the street between the theatre and the river. I’ve searched the area twice and hope someone picked them up and held onto them. If you found them, please let me know through the site.

Lost DVDs in Fargo apartment

I was lounging on the couch in my Fargo apartment last Friday at 8:15 p.m., when I realized the pile of DVDs on the coffee table had vanished. The living room glowed softly from the streetlight outside, and I must have wandered into the kitchen to grab a snack before noticing they were gone. The blue case with a red spine is missing, and it feels personal—those were the go-to weekend rewatches after long shifts. I’m hoping someone picked them up by mistake and will bring them back to my place on 3rd Street. I’m really missing that familiar sense of routine.

Lost Board Games in North Dakota

On Tuesday afternoon around 4:30 p.m., I realized my Board Games were gone after leaving the Grand Forks Public Library near Third Street. I’d planned a cozy game night with friends and had packed a stack including a rare cooperative game and a dice tower that belonged to my grandmother. I paused at the little coffee shop on North 20th Avenue, then walked back toward Fifth Street, hoping to spot the bag on benches or in a cart. I’ve checked the library’s Lost and Found and retraced the downtown sidewalks, but no luck yet. Losing them felt like losing a small spark of joy for our weekly nights, and I’d love to have them back for our next gathering.

Lost: Radios in North Dakota

Thursday at 7:40 p.m., I parked near downtown Fargo after helping with a small community fundraiser and realized my two handheld radios and a small scanner were missing from the back seat. The grey case didn’t have a lock, just a strap. The radios are used to coordinate volunteers during events, and one has a red volunteer tag still on it. I jogged through the nearby Red River Valley Park and checked the library and several cafés along 1st Avenue South, but the case never turned up. I’m anxious about losing contact with on-site teams and missing crucial broadcasts for Friday’s market. If you found a grey case with radios, please hand it in to the site so I can recover it.

Lost devices in Fargo, ND downtown.

I was seated on a bench outside the Fargo Theatre on Broadway around 12:30 p.m. today when a gust from a passing car knocked my bag from my lap and my laptop, tablet, and phone slipped away. The laptop has a red sticker, the tablet is a gray 11-inch model, and my phone has a blue case. I’ve retraced the brick sidewalks along 1st Avenue North and checked the coffee shops, but I didn’t find them. I’m stressed about the data and the urgency of replacing them is hitting me hard. If you come across any of these devices, please let me know where you found them.

Pins lost on Main Street near the Capitol

I lost my Pins this afternoon while wandering around the North Dakota State Capitol area. It was about 4:15 pm on Main Street near the Capitol steps. The pins are a small enamel set in teal, coral, and gold, attached to a thin silver chain. They were a gift from my grandmother and mean a lot to me, especially on days like this. I remember stopping for a quick photo by the fountain and tucking them away in my jacket pocket, then heading toward the plaza. If you saw them around the Capitol grounds or along Main Street, please keep an eye out for them.
