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 San Marcos 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 San Marcos in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

I lost my adapters near San Marcos Square

9:10 a.m. today outside the San Marcos Farmer's Market on Guadalupe Street, I set down my laptop bag to grab a coffee and somehow the adapters vanished. I searched the surrounding benches and the market stalls, but they didn't turn up. Those adapters are crucial for my classes at Texas State and they’re the link to finishing my project for this week. If you found them or saw a stray bag on the ground, please keep them safe—I would be incredibly grateful.

Lost: Holiday decorations after a San Marcos stop.

Last Friday evening at around 6:20 p.m., I realized my holiday decorations didn't make it back into the car after unloading from the trunk outside the H-E-B on Wonder World Drive in San Marcos. It was a jumble of strings of lights and a couple of handmade ornaments; they might have slipped behind the cart area or tumbled under a bench. I was hoping to set them up for a family gathering this weekend, but without those decorations the house feels a little bare. If anyone saw them around the parking lot or near the store exit, please consider returning them to the lost-and-found here.

Lost Driver's License in San Marcos

I was cycling along the San Marcos River Trail by Rio Vista Park around 4:45 PM Tuesday when I realized my driver's license had slipped from my pocket. It's a Texas license with my photo and the name shown on it, a blue-bordered card I need back. I retraced every bend of the trail, checked the riverbank, the benches, and the bike rack, but it was gone. This license is important to me for daily life, so I’m hoping it turns up soon and someone who finds it can get it back to the right hands.

Lost desk organizers near San Marcos Plaza, San Marcos

I’m Carlos Mendoza. Friday around 5:30 p.m., I left a small set of desk organizers on a cafe table by the San Marcos Plaza near the Hays County Courthouse. They’re blue plastic with a sliding drawer and a couple of labels on top—two-tier organizers I use for study notes and schedules. Finals are looming, and losing them throws off my whole routine. I walked toward the San Marcos River and back along Guadalupe Street, checked the coffee shop, and asked staff, but they weren’t there. I’m hopeful someone picked them up and will drop them off at the plaza’s lost-and-found so they can get back to me.
