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 Nottingham 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 Nottingham in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Pins lost in Nottingham's Old Market Square.

I was wandering through Old Market Square at 3:15 PM last Friday when my pin collection slipped from my bag and vanished. The pins are small enamel pieces—one shows a tram, another a fox, and a tiny Nottingham crest—on a blue lanyard I wear for work. They’re not valuable, just memory-makers from weekends out with friends and little trips to Wollaton Hall. I kept promising myself I’d get them back this week, and I can still see the bright reflections on the fountain tiles as I retraced my steps by the Robin Hood statue. If you found a small pin bundle near the Market Square tram stop, I’d really appreciate its return.

Lost: Organizers in Market Square

I was grabbing a quick coffee on Maid Marian Way and must have left my organizers somewhere between Market Square and the Robin Hood statue this morning around 8:15. They’re a set of clear plastic organizers with blue labels for different tasks, and there’s a small red notebook wedged inside with my contact list. I’m panicking because this weekend I’m running a fundraiser and need those notes. If anyone finds them, please report through the site so I can arrange retrieval.

Lost green Rock City ticket with barcode near Market Square

I lost my green Rock City concert ticket yesterday around 7pm. It's a standard paper ticket with a big barcode at the bottom, and it has a tiny coffee stain on the bottom-left corner plus a small star sticker with my initials 'PP' near the barcode. Seat details are in the top-right: Row B, Seat 24, Section Floor GA, for the Rock City show on Talbot Street in Nottingham. I think I dropped it around Old Market Square or outside the venue after the encore; it was a birthday gift from a friend, so it means a lot to get it back. If you find it, drop me a message here or email [email protected].

Gold Pandora bracelet with emerald charm, lost near Victoria Centre

I was wearing a slim Pandora gold-tone bracelet with an emerald charm when I last checked yesterday afternoon. I lost it around 3pm near the Victoria Centre tram stop in Nottingham, probably dropped it on the pavement outside one of the coffee shops. It's about 6.5 inches, with the inside of the clasp engraved with the initials 'KB' and a tiny, subtle scratch on the gold-tone band from wear. It has huge sentimental value—it was a gift from my grandmother—and I’m really hoping to get it back. If anyone found it, please drop me a message here so we can arrange a quick pickup.

Gold chain necklace with heart pendant

I lost my gold-tone chain necklace yesterday around 3pm near the Broadmarsh Centre in Nottingham. It's an 18-inch delicate chain with a tiny silver heart pendant that has an 'M' engraved on the back, and the clasp is a small lobster clasp. The chain has a faint scratch on the heart from a fall last week, and it means a lot to me because it was a gift from my sister and I wore it almost every day. If anyone found it, please reach out - I'd be really grateful to have it back.

Gold-tone hoop earrings with crescent moon charm

I lost my gold-tone hoop earrings yesterday around 3pm near Old Market Square in Nottingham, outside Waterstones on Bridlesmith Gate. They’re small hoops, about 1 cm in diameter, with a delicate crescent moon charm that dangles from one side. The clasp is a bit scratched from daily wear, and one earring seems a touch shinier than the other. They’re sentimental to me—a gift from my sister—and I’d really appreciate getting them back.
