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 Ventura County 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 Ventura County in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost DVDs in Ventura County, CA

Last Tuesday at 8:45 p.m., I was walking through The Promenade at RiverPark in Oxnard, Ventura County, when I realized my two DVDs were missing from my backpack. I had tucked them into a small white case labeled with a sticker of a rocket, and I must have set the case down on a bench outside The Market at RiverPark while I paused to text a friend. The scent of popcorn from the cinema mingled with the salty air, and the benches along the promenade became a blur as I moved on. Losing those discs feels silly, but they’re my comfort movies, and I hope someone found and kept them safe.

Lost Scarves in Ventura County, CA

This morning, around 9:30 a.m., I realized I lost my scarves while walking along Main Street toward the Ventura Pier. The blue patterned scarf is the one I grab on chilly mornings at the farmers market by the promenade. I searched the area around the pier, checked a few shops, and asked a couple of clerks, but no one had seen it. It might sound small, but the scarf feels like a link to my grandmother and a coast trip we took last winter. If someone found it, I’d appreciate it being kept safe until I can reclaim it.

Lost ties in Ventura County, near Ventura Pier.

At 7:15 p.m. on Friday, I realized my navy silk tie and a thinner silver tie bar had slipped from my jacket pocket and vanished near the Ventura Pier. I’d stepped outside the venue to grab a breath and take a quick photo when they disappeared into the fading light. These ties aren’t expensive, but they belong to my late grandfather, and they help me feel like I’m carrying him with me on important days. I searched the benches, the path along the promenade, and the bike rack by Main Street, but nothing turned up. If someone found them, I’d be grateful to be reunited with them.

Lost coins near Ventura Pier, Ventura County, CA

Last Saturday around 6:15 PM, I was walking along Main Street by the Ventura Pier in Ventura County when I realized a handful of coins had slipped from my pocket. The evening breeze pushed against the palm trees as the sun sank and the harbor lights flickered to life. I retraced my steps past the coffee cart and the bench where I like to sit, but the coins vanished somewhere along the curb. They’re not valuable, just tokens from family trips that remind me of road trips up the coast. I hope someone who sees this note will recognize the memory and help bring them back.

LOST: Sandals in Ventura County

I lost my sandals after a sunset walk along Ventura Harbor Village. It was about 6:15 PM on Friday when I kicked them off to cool my feet while I waited near the Ventura Pier for the fishing boat parade to begin. I realized they were missing as I stood to leave, and the hollow feeling under my ankles reminded me how essential they are for quiet coastal days here in Ventura County. They’re tan leather with pink straps and well-worn from many beach walks. If you spotted a pair near the benches by the Ventura Pier around sunset, please keep them safe for me until I make my way back to the area.

Lost devices in Ventura County

I lost my devices around 1:15 PM on Tuesday near the Ventura Harbor Village, and the harbor breeze still feels like a reminder of what’s missing. My laptop in a dark gray sleeve and my phone in a bright blue case were last hooked to a charger as I hurried past the shops, and I fear they were left behind on a bench by the water. I replay that moment—the gulls over the wharf, the sun catching the waves—hoping someone who found them will see this listing and help me get them back through the site. If anyone recognizes these items, I’d be endlessly grateful.
