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 Winston-Salem 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 Winston-Salem in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost rabbits near Reynolda Gardens, Winston-Salem

I realized my rabbits were gone after a walk near Reynolda Gardens in Winston-Salem yesterday around 6:20 p.m. There are two: a white rabbit with black ears and a smaller brown one with a soft gray patch. I last saw them near the pond behind Reynolda House and must have drifted off the path while I paused to tie my shoes. My heart sank as the sun set and the streetlamps flickered along Reynolda Road. If you’ve seen them, they’re friendly and respond to soft voices and a gentle whistle.

Lost Hoops near Bailey Park, Winston-Salem, NC

Hey, I’m Caleb Moore. I realized my hoops were missing around 6:40 p.m. yesterday while I was strolling near Bailey Park in downtown Winston-Salem, heading toward the Stevens Center. They’re a pair of simple silver hoops with a tiny scratch on the back clasp, the kind I wear every day. I’m attached to them—they were a gift—and I’m heartbroken imagining them left behind on a bench or dropped in a flower bed. If you happened to see a pair lying on the sidewalk near the Wake Forest Innovation Quarter or the Stevens Center, I’d appreciate it if you could share through the site.

Lost sheet music from last rehearsal

I lost my sheet music after a late practice yesterday. It is a small black binder with yellowed pages and a pencil mark on page 8, plus a coffee ring near the spine. I realized it was gone around 7:15 p.m. outside the Stevens Center on West Fourth Street, by the brick arch that leads toward Old Salem. Those pages hold a few original arrangements my grandmother taught me, and I feel empty without them; they connect me to family and to the sound of our old piano. If anyone found it, I would be grateful to have it back before my next recital.

Two white toasters lost near Hanes Mall, Winston-Salem.

I lost my two toasters around 6:45 PM on Friday in the Winston-Salem area. I’d just swung by Hanes Mall and bumped into a friend on Peters Creek Parkway, and by the time I checked my tote, the toasters weren’t there. They’re white with a little chrome trim and a small coffee stain on the side—nothing fancy, just mine. I’ve been kicking myself since, hoping a good Samaritan somewhere in the Hanes Mall corridor might’ve handed them in. If you’ve seen them, I’d be grateful for the help through the site.

Lost GPS devices in Winston-Salem

Today around 2:30 p.m., I realized my GPS devices were missing from my backpack after a quick coffee break near Old Salem. I retraced my steps along Liberty Street and around the Benton Convention Center area, hoping they hadn’t slipped into a passerby’s bag or onto a vendor table. Those little units are my lifeline for getting around this week, and losing them left me feeling anxious and a little embarrassed. I’m holding out hope someone nearby turned them in and kept them safe.

Black Michael Kors handbag with red tassel

I was out running errands yesterday afternoon and I think I dropped my black Michael Kors handbag somewhere near the Starbucks on Main Street in downtown Winston-Salem around 3pm. It's in pretty good shape, black pebbled leather with a red tassel on the zipper pull, a small silver MK logo, and an interior black satin lining. Inside I have my wallet, a faded photo of my grandmother, and a key fob with initials 'AL' that I engraved years ago—the sentimental stuff is the real worry here. If anyone found it, please let me know — I really need it back; it was a gift and contains keepsakes that mean a lot to me.
