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 Eugene 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 Eugene in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost holiday decorations near Autzen Stadium, Eugene, OR.

I lost my red tote with holiday decorations around 9:15 p.m. on December 4. It had been on the porch railing at my friend's house near 13th Avenue and Willamette Street, not far from Autzen Stadium. I paused to grab an extra extension cord, and in the rush I must have left it behind. I’m hoping a neighbor or passerby picked it up and kept it safe.

Lost leashes near Skinner Butte Park

I lost my dog leashes on Friday at 7:02 pm near Skinner Butte Park, at the 5th Avenue entrance in Eugene. One leash is navy blue with a yellow loop; the other is plain black. I had paused to untangle a fallen leaf when a breeze whipped down the hill and knocked them from my wrist. The path felt quiet, with only the distant sound of traffic and a gull crying over the river. They are essential for our evening walks, and I can picture them snagged on a low root near the overlook. I am praying someone returns them to the park office.

Lost stamps near Skinner Butte Park, Eugene

Last Friday around 6:15 p.m., I realized my small stamp collection was gone. I was sorting mail at my kitchen table in a one-bedroom near Skinner Butte Park on Alder Street, Eugene, when I must have left the albums and a few loose sheets on the coffee table. I retraced my steps through downtown toward the Whiteaker neighborhood, but the stamps didn’t turn up. Those stamps were sentimental—a few from my grandfather's trips and some rare issues I picked up during college years. I’m hoping someone picked them up and kept them safe where I can find them.

Lost drones near Alton Baker Park, Eugene

I lost my two drones near Alton Baker Park on Friday around 7:20 p.m., after filming the sunset along the Willamette River trail. One is black with a red trim; the other is silver with orange prop guards. I last had them near the paved path by the pedestrian bridge and they disappeared into the tall grasses along the riverbank. They’re important to my work and a bit pricey, so I’m hoping someone spotted them resting somewhere safe. If you found them, I’d really appreciate the help in getting them back to me.

Lost power tools in Eugene near Autzen Stadium

I lost my power tools last Friday around 7:15 p.m. in Eugene, Oregon. I had them tucked in a metal toolbox in my small backyard workshop on West 11th Avenue when I stepped inside for a moment to fetch a screw; by the time I came back, they were gone. The toolbox had a cordless drill, a circular saw, and a few drill bits, and the space by Skinner Butte Park looked just as I left it, except for the emptiness where they sat. I'm feeling anxious and frustrated because I hoped to finish a weekend project and now I have to improvise.

LOST chargers in downtown Eugene

I LOST my chargers while grabbing a latte at Noble Coffee Roasters on 10th Avenue around 4:45 p.m. last Tuesday. I retraced my steps down Willamette Street toward Kesey Square, checking at a couple of shops, but no luck. The cords are a green braided USB-C cable with a black brick charger—one of those with the short, sturdy cord. If someone turned them in, they’d mean a lot to me as I’m traveling for work this week and rely on them nightly.
