Find Lost Items

Even if you’ve checked it twice, you might have left one of your favorite things in the back seat. It happens to the best of us, but no need to fret, with Uber you can easily recover lost items.

Check the bottom of your receipt email for the “Click here if you lost something on this trip” link or visit riders.uber.com for your driver’s contact info. You can reach out directly to recover your lost item and avoid those cold weather blues.

Triple Check Your Pick Up Location Before Requesting

Before finalizing that request, make sure to click the compass symbol in the bottom right corner of your screen. Take a quick glance at the pick up location address and make sure everything is a-okay. Those simple steps can bring you plenty of cheer, making requests absolutely seamless.

Enter Your Drop-Off Destination in the App
