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 Portland 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 Portland in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

LOST Travel Visas in Portland

Last Friday at 4:45 p.m., I left my bag on a bench near Pioneer Courthouse Square after a quick coffee break. When I returned, the bag was gone and so were my travel visas tucked inside the folder. The folder held important stamps and a few dates I’ve been planning for months. I’m terrified about missing my trip, and I’m hoping someone picked it up and turned it in at the square or a nearby cafe.

Lost handheld and console near Powell's Books, Portland

I lost my handheld and console sometime after leaving Powell's Books on Burnside around 6:15 p.m. on Monday, when the street outside was busy with cyclists and chatter. I must have set it down on a chair while I paid for a coffee, and I didn’t realize until I walked away. The screen still glowed with a game I was halfway through, and the charger was looped around the back. It’s irreplaceable to me—it's the last thing my mom gave me before she passed, and it helped me unwind after late shifts here in Portland.

Lost: Work Cases in Portland

Hi, I'm Mia Johnson. I lost two black leather work cases on Tuesday around 3:12 p.m. I think I left them on the curb near Pioneer Courthouse Square after grabbing a coffee. The cases have a red zipper pull and a conference badge tucked inside one of the outer pockets. They contain important folders and a charger, and I’m anxious about the meeting I have tomorrow. If you found them, please let me know through the site so we can arrange a pickup.
