Uber announces its Lost and Found Index around most lost items, dates, times
As we’re wrapping up what was probably the busiest summer of travel ever, we’re back with the sixth annual Uber Lost and Found Index, revealing the most surprising and most popular items left behind by riders over the past year.
Each year, the Uber Lost and Found Index provides a snapshot of riders’ most commonly forgotten and most unique lost items. We also highlight which cities have been most forgetful, which times of day and days of the week riders forget items most, and of course, tips on how to get any lost items back using the Uber app.
Phones, keys and wallets topped the list once again of the most commonly forgotten items, but as we well know, riders aren’t just leaving the usual’s behind – they’re forgetting everything from their own wedding rings to important work reports to helmets – and that’s just to name a few.
The full results are below – take a look, they may surprise you!
