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 South Jersey 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 South Jersey in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost terrariums near Atlantic City Boardwalk.

On Sunday around 3:30 PM, I was strolling the South Jersey shoreline along the Atlantic City Boardwalk by the Steel Pier, snapping photos for a little project. I lost my terrariums. My two terrariums were in a carry bag, and I set them on a bench while I grabbed a quick snack. When I looked back, the bag had shifted and the terrariums were gone. The glass is a touch salty from the sea air; one holds a tiny fern, the other a small succulent, both with a bit of white sand. They were gifts from my grandmother, memories of summers by the shore. If anyone saw them, please help me get them back.

Lost Gym Clothes in South Jersey

I realized today around 7:15 AM that I left my gym clothes behind after an early workout at South Jersey Fitness in Voorhees. My gray sweatpants and a light-blue hoodie were in a black gym bag that I set on a bench by the entrance, and I remember grabbing my water bottle and rushing out to catch the bus. Now it’s all gone, and I’m worried about making it to my shift without them. If someone happened to find a bag near the front desk or outside, I’d be grateful to have it back.

Lost medication near Wawa, Route 130, Berlin

I was at the Wawa on Route 130 in Berlin around 7:30 p.m. last Tuesday when I realized my medication bottle had gone missing from my tote. It's a small amber bottle with a white cap and a blue label—easy to spot if you know what you're looking for. I rely on these meds every morning, and the thought of going without them tonight is making me anxious. If you found something that matches this description, please keep it safe until I can reclaim it.

lost: Equipment for Various Sports

On Friday at 6:15 pm, I realized my Equipment for Various Sports was missing from the field behind Cherry Hill High School West in South Jersey. I had been helping set up for practice and left the gear near the bleachers while I tied my sneakers. When I got back, the bag was gone and the lot looked empty. Inside were gear for several sports: a worn basketball, two tennis rackets, a pair of cleats, and a neon-green practice jersey. I'm anxious about the upcoming weekend scrimmage and worried I won't have the basics if it doesn't turn up. If you found something, please leave a note on the site so I can check it there.

Lost airline item near Atlantic City Boardwalk, South Jersey

I was grabbing a quick coffee near the Steel Pier on the Atlantic City Boardwalk around 9:10 p.m. Tuesday when I realized my airline item had slipped from my bag. I checked the benches, the arcade, and the souvenir stalls from the boardwalk entrance down toward the Tropicana, but the neon lights and crowds made it easy to miss. It’s tied to an upcoming trip, and I’m anxious to recover it so plans can stay on track.

LOST: Toasters near Cherry Hill Mall

Last Friday at 8:15 p.m., I stepped out of the kitchen in my Cherry Hill apartment near the Cherry Hill Mall and found my two toasters missing from the counter. I replay the afternoon and worry someone borrowed them by mistake or they wandered off during the evening. They’re nothing fancy, just reliable two-slice models I use every morning, and losing them has thrown off my routine. If you spotted them around the area between the mall and Crescent Boulevard, please help me bring them home.
