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 Vermont 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 Vermont in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

LOST: Travel Adapters in Vermont, Vermont, United States

I was wandering through Church Street Marketplace in Burlington on a chilly evening around 7:45 p.m. when I realized my travel adapters were missing from my backpack. It’s a small gray universal adapter set with a blue strap and a black case—essential for my upcoming work trips. I retraced my steps toward the bus stops by City Hall Park and the little cafes, but they didn’t surface. If someone found them, I’d be grateful to have them back so I can finish my coming trip.

lost: two brooches in Burlington, Vermont.

I lost my grandmother's heirloom brooches on Tuesday, around 4:15 PM, at Church Street Marketplace in Burlington. They’re a pair: one silver-tone with a tiny heart, and the other a cobalt-blue stone set in brass. I remember browsing window displays near the benches by the Clock Tower when the crowd swelled, and I must have slipped them from my scarf. It felt like a part of me disappeared in the ripple of coffee steam and the clanging of bike bells. If someone spotted them on the gray flagstone, I’d be grateful to hear they found their way back to me.

Lost toasters in Vermont

Yesterday around 4:15 p.m., I realized my two toasters were missing from the kitchen counter in my apartment on College Street, Burlington, near the Church Street Marketplace. I had set them out to dry after making a late snack and must have left them by the hallway table while I ran to grab a coffee. It feels silly, but those little gadgets have become a daily ritual to start my mornings, and I miss the warm toast more than I care to admit. If you happened to move things around or found them tucked behind the sofa, I’d really appreciate their safe return to my kitchen.

Navy knit scarf with leather tag

I lost my navy knit scarf this afternoon around 3:15pm. I was wandering through Church Street Marketplace in Burlington, Vermont, near the Ben & Jerry's when I realized it was gone. It's a mid-weight scarf from L.L.Bean, ribbed knit, about 60 inches long and 8 inches wide, with a small brown leather tag on one end. There's a tiny pull on the left corner and a couple of loose threads, but overall it's still in decent shape. This scarf means a lot to me—it's a gift from my grandmother, and Vermont winters feel a lot lonelier without it. If anyone found it, please text me; I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Black Anker USB-C hub with red RP sticker

I lost my black Anker 7-in-1 USB-C hub yesterday around 3pm near the Church Street Marketplace in Burlington, VT. It's about the size of a credit card, matte black aluminum, with a blue LED on the side and a small red sticker on the top with the initials 'RP'. It lives in a gray fabric sleeve with a tiny white star pattern. I really need it back because I use it daily for work, and it was a gift from my sister, so it has sentimental value. If anyone found it, please reach out—I’d be incredibly grateful.

Brown leather briefcase with brass clasp

I lost my brown leather briefcase yesterday around 3pm outside Ben & Jerry's on Church Street in Burlington, Vermont. It's a 15-inch Samsonite briefcase with a brass clasp, slightly worn corners, and a red satin liner. Inside there's a small zip pocket where I kept a sticky note with my contact number, plus a photo of my grandmother—it's a sentimental piece I carry to every meeting. A few stitches along the handle have loosened and there's a tiny dent near the lock. If anyone spots it, please reach out—this bag holds important papers and memories, and I really need it back.
