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 Southeast Alaska 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 Southeast Alaska in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost coins near the Juneau waterfront

On Thursday at about 6:10 p.m., I realized I lost coins while walking along the Juneau waterfront near the Mt. Roberts Tramway. The coins are a small keepsake collection from my grandfather—one old silver dime and a couple of worn quarters—and I’ve carried them with me for luck whenever I hike in Southeast Alaska. They’re not valuable, but they mean a lot to me, and I’ve been tracing the harbor boardwalk hoping to spot them again. If found, I’d be endlessly grateful to have them back in my pocket.

Lost postcards in Southeast Alaska, Alaska

I was wandering around Juneau’s downtown on a drizzly afternoon when I realized I’d left a small stack of postcards in my daypack on the way to the Alaska State Museum. It was around 2:20 PM last Friday when I must have set them down near the museum while I browsed souvenir stalls. The cards feature memories from a summer cruise along the Lynn Canal and have notes on the backs from friends. Losing them feels like dropping a piece of home into the mist. If you found them, please respond through the site.

Lost Travel Visas in Southeast Alaska, Alaska

I lost my travel visas while hiking in Southeast Alaska last Friday around 6:45 pm near the Mount Roberts Tramway in Juneau. I was descending from the tramway overlook when a sudden gust shuffled papers out of my pocket and over the railing. The documents are simple, but they represent a planned trip that matters a lot to me, and losing them left me feeling stranded and anxious about what comes next. If anyone finds them, I’d be grateful to have them scanned back to me so I can sort the next steps.

LOST: Sheet Music in Southeast Alaska

I was stepping out of the Alaska State Museum in Juneau at 4:10 p.m. yesterday when a folder of sheet music slipped from my bag and dropped to the pavement by the entrance. The blue binder contains pieces I’ve been practicing for an upcoming recital, some of them hand-written margins and notes I value. Losing it in Southeast Alaska feels like losing a small piece of my schedule and nerves, so I’m hoping someone picked it up and kept it safe.

Red North Face beanie with blue pom

I lost my red North Face knit beanie this afternoon around 3:00 pm near the Alaska State Capitol on 4th Street in downtown Juneau. It's an adult size, slightly stretched from wear, with a bright blue pom-pom on top and a small white North Face logo patch on the front. The cuff is lined with soft gray fleece, and there's a tiny snowflake embroidery near the cuff that makes it unique. It was a gift from my sister and has a lot of sentimental value; I’ve worn it on every hike and in the rain here in Southeast Alaska, and I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Red Pearl 14x6.5 snare drum, lost

I lost my red Pearl 14x6.5 inch snare drum yesterday around 3pm near the Alaska State Ferry Terminal in downtown Juneau, by the cruise ship dock and the souvenir shop. It's a used Pearl Export Series snare with a glossy red acrylic shell, chrome hardware, and a small dent on the rim near the 3 o'clock position. There's a blue star sticker on the shell and my initials 'PR' written inside the drumhead. I'm really hoping someone picked it up; it was a gift from my grandfather and means a lot to me. If you found it, please contact me—I can meet you downtown or at the ferry terminal to grab it.
