Any item left on the bus will remain there until the end of the day. If you remember the bus number, you can get on that bus and check with the operator; unclaimed items will be turned in to BT at the end of the day. Blacksburg Transit is not responsible for items lost or left on the bus. If you think you may have left an item on the bus call 540-443-1500 and our staff will attempt to locate the item.

All items found on BT buses will be logged in to Lost & Found the following business day. Items will be held in the Lost & Found storage room and logged according to the date the item was found along with a detailed description. All items will be kept until the owner claims them, or until 60 days have passed, whichever occurs first with the exception of Virginia Tech property, ID’s and bank cards.
