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 Houston 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 Houston in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost pants near Discovery Green, downtown Houston

Last Friday around 7:30 PM, after I left Discovery Green in downtown Houston, I realized my favorite pair of charcoal pants were missing from my chair. I think they slipped off when I stood up to grab my bag after the sunset concert. They’re a midweight cotton blend with a small knee patch and a belt loop that’s a little frayed. I’ve worn them through late shifts and weekend errands, and I miss the way they fit when I’m rushing between meetings. If you found them somewhere along the riverfront or near the light rail stops around downtown, please help me get them back.

Lost memory cards near Discovery Green, Houston

On Saturday around 4:30 PM I was wandering around downtown Houston, near Discovery Green, when I realized my memory cards were missing from my camera bag. They’re in a small black zipper pouch with a mix of SD and microSD cards, some in blue cases. These cards are essential for work and personal projects, and I’m hoping they turn up with the right person.

Lost carry-ons near Hobby Airport, Houston

Late Friday night around 9:20 p.m., outside Terminal A at Hobby Airport, I realized my carry-ons were gone. They’re two pieces: a black rolling suitcase with a red strap and a matching tote. I’ve been replaying the moment I walked away from the curb and fear what’s inside—important documents, a medication pack, and a small keepsake that means a lot to me. If anyone has seen them, I’d be grateful to hear anything; I’m counting on our Houston community to help me bring them back.

Lost parrots near Memorial Park, Houston

I lost my two parrots, Mango and Pico, last Friday around 7:15 p.m. I last saw them near Memorial Park's jogging trail by the water fountain. They’re bright green with orange faces and love mimicking car horns and city sounds. My heart aches thinking about the quiet apartment and the empty perch at home. I’ve walked the Montrose streets all evening, calling their names and listening for a flutter among the oaks and pines along the bayou. If you see two parrots anywhere near Memorial Park, please watch the trees and call out gently; I’m hoping they just wandered briefly and will find their way back.
