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 Western Slope 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 Western Slope in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Two felines missing after sunset near Grand Junction.

On Friday around 8:15 p.m., I realized my two felines were gone from the balcony of my apartment on North 7th Street in Grand Junction, in the Western Slope. I combed the alleys behind Riverside Park and called their names until well past midnight, praying they’d come home. One cat is a gray tabby with a white bib; the other is fluffy black-and-white and a bit shy. I'm anxious and lonely without them; I’ve left a water dish and a familiar blanket on the porch to lure them back, and the apartment feels unusually quiet. If you saw two cats near Riverside Park, the Colorado River Trail, or the 7th Street corridor, please let me know through the site.

Lost shirts in Western Slope, Grand Junction

Hi, I’m Grace Martinez. I lost a bunch of shirts this morning along Grand Junction’s Riverfront Trail around 9:15 am. I started at Confluence Park, walking north toward Lincoln Park, when a gust knocked my tote from my shoulder and the shirts spilled onto the path. They’re casual tees, bright colors and different sizes—one soft blue, one striped. They aren’t fancy, but they belonged to a friend who recently moved away, and I’d really like to get them back. I’ve searched the trail and benches nearby and can’t find them. Please keep an eye out if you’re on the Riverfront Trail near Confluence Park.

Lost document holders in Western Slope.

Last Friday around 6:15 PM, I realized my document holders were missing from my desk at the Grand Junction coworking space on 4th Street in downtown Western Slope. I’d just finished marking up a lease draft and slid the folders back into my bag before the door closed behind me at 6:20; somehow they didn’t come along. They’re black with a bright green label on the spine, and I use them daily for invoices and client notes. It’s stressful because several deadlines depend on them, and I’d be grateful to recover them. If you found a black folder with a green spine label somewhere near Main Street or the Mesa County Courthouse area, please bring it back.

Lost stamps in Western Slope, Colorado

I was sorting through my stamp album at a small table in downtown Grand Junction around 5:15 PM on Tuesday when a gust tugged the folder from my lap and sent stamps skittering across the polished concrete near Main Street and the Colorado Riverfront Trail. The batch includes a handful of early US commemoratives and a few vintage postcards. Losing them hurts—these are sentimental pieces that remind me of my grandfather's old collection. I searched the riverfront park, the nearby shops, and asked a couple of vendors, but no luck. If you’ve found even a single stamp or the folder, please let me know through the site.

Lost appliances in Western Slope, Colorado.

At around 7:25 PM on Monday, I realized I’d misplaced several kitchen appliances after unloading groceries in Grand Junction. The microwave, a blender, and a compact coffee maker were in a tote on the back seat, but they disappeared as I stepped into the Mesa Mall entrance. I retraced my steps around the lot and checked near the sporting goods store, but nothing turned up. The fading light and the cool air only added to my worry as I imagined a neighbor picking them up for a yard sale. If someone found them, I’d be grateful if they turned them in at the Mesa Mall security desk or left them with customer service so I could collect them.

Lost photographs in Western Slope, Colorado

While hiking along the Riverfront Trail in Grand Junction this afternoon, I realized my grandmother’s photographs were missing. They were tucked into a small leather album, the kind with frayed edges and a wax-paper divider. The last time I remember having them was around 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday near the Avalon Theatre area, where the light hits the river and the benches smell faintly of pine. Some of the prints show family picnics on the Colorado prairie and a birthday party from decades ago; they carry a lot of stories for me. I hope a passerby picked them up and kept them safe until they can be returned.
