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 St Joseph 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 St Joseph in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost Wrist Watches in St Joseph

I was at Riverside Park, near the Pony Express Museum, around 8:45 PM yesterday, checking my watch as the sun slipped behind the Missouri River. My silver wristwatch with a black leather band slipped off my wrist during a quick turn by the park railing. It’s a family heirloom with a scratched face and initials KJ etched on the back, which makes it even more precious. I’m hoping it turned up near the benches or beneath the railing where I paused to tie my shoe.

Lost Remote Controls in St. Joseph, MO

I lost my Remote Controls last Thursday around 8:10 p.m., outside the Missouri Theatre in downtown St. Joseph. I’d stepped out after the show and left them on a chair by the entrance; when I came back, they were gone. There are three remotes—the TV, soundbar, and streaming box—that I rely on every night, and it’s a little defeating not to have them for movie night with the family. If you happened to see a small black remote set near Patee House Museum or the theatre area, please keep an eye out and I hope they turn up.

LOST hats near Pony Express Museum

Hello, I’m Grace Carter. I LOST my hats near the Pony Express Museum in St. Joseph last night around 7:15 p.m. I left a friend's house on Frederick Avenue and headed toward the City Market, and when I got to the museum steps I realized one hat was missing and the other probably slipped off at the same time. They’re just practical: a black wool beanie and a gray knit cap with a small red pom-pom. They’re not priceless, but they’re mine and they keep me warm during chilly shifts. If anyone found them near that museum entrance, I’d be grateful for a word.

Lost holiday decorations near Riverside Park, St. Joseph

I was decking the house for Christmas when a gust of wind swept my holiday decorations off the front porch on 4th Street near Riverside Park, and they vanished before I could blink. I last saw them around 7:45 PM last Saturday as I was untangling lights while the dog sniffed around the yard. They're a mismatched mix: bright red and green garlands, a few tinsel strands, and a small snowman ornament with a chipped carrot nose. Losing them feels like the season lost a little sparkle, and I hope whoever picked them up knows they belong with my decorations at home.

Lost sports equipment in St. Joseph, MO

I was at Krug Park's basketball courts around 7:15 PM on Saturday when I realized my sports equipment was missing from the bench where I left it while my kids tried out the skate park. The gray duffel bag held gear for basketball, soccer, and tennis—shin guards, a basketball, a tennis racket, and a couple of practice jerseys. My family is counting on this gear for the spring league, and I’m anxious about the cost and time it would take to replace it. If you’ve seen a bag matching this description, please reach out through the site; I’m hopeful a good neighbor or fellow park-goer did the right thing.

Lost sheet music after rehearsal

I was in the downtown theater lobby, St. Joseph, Missouri, United States around 11:15 a.m. today after a rehearsal when I set my blue tote on a chair by the side exit. By the time I gathered my things, my sheet music binder with a red spiral and the label Op. 27 was gone. Those pages carry tempo markings and a few scribbled reminders; I’m anxious I won’t be able to perform without them. If you found it near the lobby or the stage door, please post a note here so we can arrange pickup there.
