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 Provo / Orem 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 Provo / Orem in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost: Carry-ons near BYU Library

I’m Samantha Lee. I realized around 8:15 p.m. yesterday I left two carry-on bags on the plaza outside the Harold B. Lee Library at BYU in Provo. They had a blue rolling suitcase and a black carry-on, both with travel stickers from our trip. The bags contained essential clothes and a notebook with my own handwriting. The thought of someone lifting them makes me anxious; I hope they’re safe and someone returns them through the site.

Lost gym bag after class near BYU Library

Hi, I'm Mia Carter. I lost my gray gym bag after a workout at the Provo City Recreation Center around 6:40 p.m. today. I think I dropped it near the east entrance by the basketball courts as I walked to my car in the lot. Inside are a blue hoodie, a water bottle, and a pair of well-worn sneakers. The bag has a small mountain logo on the zipper and a black strap that's frayed. I haven't misplaced something like this before and I'm anxious to have it back before finals.

Lost: Synthesizers near BYU campus, Provo / Orem, Utah

I lost my two black synthesizers after a late practice in Provo. It was about 7:15 p.m. on Tuesday, outside the BYU Library near the map statue on campus. I had set the cases down on a bench while I re-tied my shoes and somehow walked away without noticing. I retraced the path along University Avenue toward the library and checked the racks by the entrance, but they were gone. They are not just gear; they are the heart of my little home studio, and I am worried about the music I might not be able to make without them.

Lost student ID near BYU Library, Provo

I realized my student ID was missing yesterday around 3:05 p.m. as I walked from class toward the Harold B. Lee Library on the BYU campus in Provo. I remember a quick stop by the Wilkinson Student Center courtyard and then moving on to the library steps, and I must have set it down somewhere there. It’s important for campus access and meals, and finals week is breathing down my neck, so I’m anxious to get it back. If you find it, please post a note on the site—fingers crossed it finds its way home.

lost Avians from Provo home

I lost my Avians last Sunday around 6:15 PM when the screen on our balcony on 900 North slipped and they flew out. My two small green-and-yellow parrots with blue-tipped tails disappeared toward the Provo River trail, and I can still hear their tiny chirps. I know their names Sunny and Pico, and I called them as I ran through the courtyard toward the Provo Library area, hoping to coax them back. I am scared for them, and I keep picturing their colors drifting through dusk, wondering if they are okay.
