The closure of TfL’s Lost Property Office on Pelham Street has resulted in taxi drivers being advised to take lost items to the nearest London police station. However, many drivers have encountered difficulties as the police often refuse to accept the lost property. This refusal contradicts the legal obligation for taxi drivers to hand over lost items. With the new lost property office located far away from central London, taxi drivers are likely to rely more on police stations to return lost belongings, particularly for drivers who operate on the other side of the city. These drivers face hours navigating through London traffic to drop off lost property in West Ham, resulting in what could be four-hour round trips.
