Lost Student ID near UNC Chapel Hill
I lost my student ID this morning around 10:15 AM on the UNC Chapel Hill campus, Raleigh / Durham / CH, North Carolina, United States, near the Franklin Street entrance to the Student Union. I had stopped to jot a note in my notebook and clipped the card to my lanyard, then headed toward a lecture hall. When I stood up to go to class, the ID was missing from the lanyard loop. The card has a blue lanyard and a small university logo; it's important for class check-ins and library access, and I'm anxious that someone else could misuse it. If you've seen a stray ID on the Franklin Street area or by the library, please let me know.
Lost work cases near Durham Station
I lost my work cases on Friday around 5:45 PM as I was leaving the Durham Station area near the south entrance and the coffee cart. I had just grabbed a quick latte and hurried onto the platform, and when I turned back the cases were gone. They’re two slim black leather cases with a few pockets and a small red sticker on one corner. I'm anxious about the documents inside and the disruption to my schedule. If you found them or saw someone leave them, I’d be grateful to know they're safe. I hope a kind soul turned them in at the station desk in Raleigh / Durham / CH, North Carolina, United States.
Found keyboards in Chapel Hill, NC
I was walking across Chapel Hill's Franklin Street near the UNC campus around 11:30 a.m. when I spotted two keyboards tucked behind a chair outside the Student Union. One is a black 61-key MIDI controller, the other a full-size keyboard with a few stickers on the case. They looked used but cared for, like someone might be practicing or teaching with them. I’m posting here to help reunite them with their owner through the site.
found dolls near Duke Chapel
I was walking through the Duke University campus area in Durham around 3:20 p.m. today when I found a small porcelain doll propped up against a bench near the Duke Chapel. She wears a faded blue dress and a crocheted hat, and her glass eyes catch the late afternoon light. She seems to have traveled far from a child's bedside, and I left her in a safe spot on campus, hoping the person who cares about her would see this listing.
Lost Saxophones in Raleigh-Durham-CH, NC
On Tuesday at around 8:20 p.m., after a rehearsal at a café near Durham Central Park, I realized I had lost my saxophones resting by a chair outside a shop on Main Street. When I came back, they were gone. There's a distinct alto and tenor pair, both with scratches and a small sticker from a local music shop; one case has a bright red zipper pull that sticks out in the dim streetlight. Losing them feels like my music's heartbeat is missing; I have gigs this week and these instruments are my lifeline.
Lost belts in Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area
Hi, I'm Morgan Hayes. I lost my favorite black leather belt with a small silver buckle. I wore it yesterday during a quick class on Hillsborough Street in Raleigh and stopped for a late coffee at Sunrise Café around 4:15 PM before wandering toward Pullen Park. I must have left it on a bench near the playground. It's the belt I reach for every day to finish my outfits, and it feels like a small piece of my daily routine is missing. If you found it, please help me get it back. It would mean a lot to me.
Found terrariums on UNC campus bench
I was walking away from the Ackland Art Museum on the UNC-Chapel Hill campus around 2:30 p.m. on Saturday when I spotted two terrariums resting on a bench by the entrance. They looked lovingly cared for, with moss, tiny plants, and decorative rocks visible through clear glass, as if someone had made a tiny greenhouse in a jar. I left them in place for a moment to be sure they weren’t knocked over, then kept an eye on the bench as I continued my walk. They seem well-loved and likely have a story behind them.

Lost toy train near Durham Amtrak platform, NC
On May 2, 2026, at about 7:50 a.m., I realized my small wooden toy train was missing from the seat pocket on a Raleigh-Durham line train as we rolled into Durham Station. I had tucked the little red-and-blue engine into a tote to keep it safe while I commuted to Chapel Hill, but it must have slipped out during the stop. The train is a simple yet cherished keepsake—my nephew loves it, and it means a lot to him. If you found it near the Durham Amtrak platform, I’d be grateful for any sign of its return.

Lost utensils near Franklin Street, Chapel Hill.
Saturday around 11:00 a.m., I realized my utensils were missing from the kitchen counter after helping clean up brunch at a friend's place on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill. The set includes a wooden spoon with a chipped handle, a teal spatula, and a handful of metal forks. I must have left them behind in the rush to get out the door, and now I’m scrambling to replace them for a big potluck next week. If you found a mismatched collection of cooking tools around Franklin Street, I’d be grateful to hear from you—these utensils mean a lot to me.
Lost Microwaves near UNC campus
On Tuesday around 7:15 p.m., I realized my Microwaves were missing from the kitchen of my apartment near the UNC campus. I’d last used them to reheat leftovers in the small galley on Franklin Street, just a short walk from the campus quad. I’m stressed because I rely on them for late-night meals after long library sessions, and I’m sure I didn’t leave them behind in the apartment. If you found my Microwaves, please keep them safe; they’re not fancy, but they’re mine and they matter to me.

Lost DVDs near UNC Chapel Hill
On Friday around 7:45 PM, I realized my DVDs were missing from the coffee shop on Franklin Street near UNC-Chapel Hill. I had left them on the table while I went out for a quick phone call, and when I came back they were gone. The streets were quiet, with the campus lights flickering and a chilly breeze in my face. They are a small stack of home movies and a couple of classic favorites, and I am getting worried they are gone for good. If anyone picked them up, I would be grateful to know they are safe.
Found drones near UNC Chapel Hill campus
I was walking back to my car near the UNC Chapel Hill Student Union around 7:15 PM on a Wednesday when I spotted two drones lying behind a bench near the fountain. They have red prop guards and a gray carry case, and one screen still faintly shows a flight log. I picked them up and carried them to the campus security desk, hoping to reunite them with their owner, but there was no one waiting for them. If these belong to you, I hope you see this — they looked fairly new and ready to capture memories of an evening on Franklin Street.
