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 Florida Keys 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 Florida Keys in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost hoops after beach game, Florida Keys

I was playing pickup basketball with friends at Higgs Beach near Mallory Square around 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday in the Florida Keys when I realized my hoops were gone. I had them in a worn blue tote as I walked to the car, but I must have dropped them near the sand by the volleyball courts. The hoops are my go-to pair, well used, with a small dent on the frame. I'm due to depart soon and can't play without them. If anyone picked them up, please message the site and let me know where to pick them up near the water.

Lost toasters in Key West, Florida Keys

Last Friday at about 8:30 p.m., I realized my two toasters were missing from the kitchen counter of our little guesthouse on Duval Street, Key West, just a few blocks from Mallory Square. The kitchen was bright with a red-and-white checkered curtain and a row of seashell magnets on the fridge. We had left them cooling on the counter after a sunset grilling and must have left without them when we headed out for a night on Duval Street. They’re generic white mini toasters, nothing fancy, but we use them every morning and the memory of them makes me ache to have them back near the water.

Lost Airline near Duval Street, Key West.

While strolling down Duval Street near Mallory Square around 2:45 p.m. on Friday, I realized my Airline was missing from my backpack. It's a slim folder containing my boarding passes and a few travel documents, the kind you’d need if you somehow end up needing to catch an unexpected flight. I retraced steps past the conch-shell kiosk and the pelican statue, but the corner by the Margaritaville café was quiet and empty. Losing this feels like a small panic in a big trip, and I’m hoping it’s somewhere safe and easy to return, so I can get home on time.

Lost brooches near Mallory Square, Key West.

I was strolling back to the hotel along Duval Street around 6:15 pm last night, when I realized my little silver brooches were missing from my bag. They were a matching set from my grandmother, with tiny sea-green stones that catch the light when the sun hits the water. I had tucked them into a velvet pouch inside my jacket, and the crowd by Mallory Square was so loud I must have dropped them somewhere along the waterfront. I’m hoping someone picked them up and kept them safe, because they mean more to me than the price could ever show. Any help in reuniting us would mean the world.

Lost holiday decorations in Florida Keys.

I lost my holiday decorations last night while I was cleaning up the condo near Mallory Square in Key West, Florida Keys. Around 7:15 p.m. on Friday, December 7, a gust knocked the tote from the balcony railing on Duval Street into a flower bed. The set includes a string of starfish-shaped lights and a handful of handmade ornaments that belonged to my grandmother—sentimental keepsakes I can’t replace. They’re irreplaceable to me, and I’m hoping someone saw them and kept them safe until I can get them back before Christmas.

Blue plush turtle toy with star sticker

I lost my blue plush turtle toy yesterday around 3pm near the playground behind Marathon Community Park, by Sombrero Beach in the Florida Keys. It's about 12 inches tall with royal-blue fur, a vivid green belly, and an orange shell patch. There's a small white star stitched on its left front flipper and a tiny red bow around its neck—easy to spot if you see it. It was a gift from my daughter's grandma and means a lot to us; my four-year-old is really worried and clings to a photo of it. If anyone found it, I’d be forever grateful to get it back.
