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 Oneonta 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 Oneonta in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost holiday decorations in Oneonta

I was decorating for a neighborhood Christmas gathering when I realized my holiday decorations were gone. I had just unplugged the strand of multicolored bulbs and set the pine garland on the mantel, plus a snowy white star topper that lights up the room. On Tuesday at 7:45 PM, I stepped outside for a minute to grab a hot cocoa from a neighbor, and when I came back the box was empty and the tree looked bare. The missing items include a red-and-gold tinsel garland, a vintage snow globe, and that star topper, all left on the coffee table near the Oneonta Theatre on Main Street. I am anxious and hopeful, because these decorations meant a lot to my small-town Christmas display, and I’d love to have them back before the community caroling event on Saturday.

Lost travel adapters in Oneonta, NY.

Today at around 10:45 a.m., I realized my travel adapters were missing from my backpack while I stood in line at the Main Street Diner in Oneonta. The blue-and-gray set has one cracked cap, and a simple USB-C brick—nothing flashy, but essential for keeping my devices charged on the road. I backtracked toward the Oneonta Farmers Market area and even checked Neahwa Park, but there’s no sign. These adapters mean a lot to my work trips, and I’m hoping someone picked them up by mistake and can return them through this site.

Navy knitted scarf with pine-needle embroidery

I lost my navy knitted scarf yesterday around 3pm outside the Oneonta Public Library on Main Street. It's a thick, hand-knitted scarf in navy blue, about 60 inches long, with a small pine-needle embroidery near the left fringe and a tiny snag near the hem from a windy day. There’s a fabric tag sewn on the inside that reads 'AM'—my initials. It was a gift from my grandmother and has really sentimental value; I wore it most days this winter and it always kept me warm. If anyone found it, please reach out—I'd be grateful to get it back.

Leopard gecko, bright green with white belly, lost

I lost my bright green leopard gecko yesterday around 3pm. It's about 4 inches long, with a white belly and a few tiny yellow speckles along the back, plus a small notch in the tail. It lives in a clear Exo Terra terrarium with a blue lid; I was moving it around near the Oneonta Public Library on Main Street when it probably slipped out. Last seen around the library crosswalk on Main Street, Oneonta. This little guy is shy and has sentimental value—I've had him for years and really need him back.

Red Le Creuset 4-qt Dutch oven

I was in my Oneonta apartment yesterday around 3pm, finishing up a quick dinner, when I must have left my red Le Creuset 4-quart Dutch oven on the stove after I turned the burner off. It's bright cherry red with a black knob on the lid, and it’s in good used condition with a small chip on the rim from a past mishap. There’s a faint white cooking-class sticker on the bottom from last winter. It was a gift from my grandmother and means a lot to me—really hoping to have it back if anyone found it near Main Street, by the library, or around the Oneonta shops.

Silver necklace with heart pendant

I lost my silver necklace this afternoon. It's a 16-inch sterling silver chain with a small heart pendant, about the size of a dime, and there's a tiny notch on the back. I was near the Oneonta Public Library on Main Street around 3pm yesterday, and a gust of wind knocked it from my neck, dropping it near the library benches. It has sentimental value—my grandmother gave it to me last year—and I really need it back. The chain is smooth with light scratches, and the heart pendant has initials 'AY' engraved on the back. If anyone found it, please reach out; I’d be so grateful to be reunited with it.
