  • Lost Your Luggage? It's Probably Here!Unclaimed Baggage, located in Scottsboro, Alabama, is the only retailer in the nation that specializes in selling lost luggage. Jennifer, who has been working at Unclaimed Baggage for 27 years, has seen her fair share of strange and unusual items left behind in bags. One particular item that stands out as the weirdest is a live rattlesnake discovered in the side pocket of a duffel bag. Fortunately, Mr. Rattlesnake was released safely.To showcase the growing collection of weird items, Unclaimed Baggage has opened a museum in store. It features over 100 unique items, including suits of armor, a basketball autographed by Michael Jordan, and even artifacts that predate Christ by hundreds of years. One notable find was an 1980s Gucci suitcase filled with Egyptian artifacts.But how did all these items end up in Scottsboro, Alabama? The fact is, airlines are incredibly successful at reuniting passengers with their lost luggage, with a success rate of over 99.5%. However, with millions of people traveling daily, that small fraction of unclaimed bags adds up. That's where Unclaimed Baggage steps in. After waiting for 90 days, they rescue these orphaned bags and sort the items into three categories: those to be resold in store, donated to charity, or recycled.Brian, the CEO of Unclaimed Baggage, grew up with the business. His father founded the company in 1970 when Brian was in the sixth grade. It all started when his father mentioned on the radio that they had more unclaimed bags than they knew what to do with. And thus, the idea of Unclaimed Baggage was born.

  • Good afternoon, shoppers.
  • Welcome to Unclaimed Baggage, the nation's only retailer of lost luggage.
  • Jennifer's worked at Unclaimed Baggage for 27 years, and she's witnessed her fair share of strange findings.
  • I think, potentially, the weirdest item we've ever found at Unclaimed Baggage was a live rattlesnake.
  • We found him in the side pocket of a duffel bag.
  • We released Mr. Rattlesnake, and he may still live today.
  • Who knows?
  • Over the years, the weird items piled up, so the team opened a museum in store to showcase their priceless finds.
  • Over 100 items are on display.
  • We have suits of armor.
  • We have a Michael Jordan autographed basketball.
  • We have things that predate Christ by hundreds of years.
  • There was a suitcase in the 1980s.
  • In fact, it was a Gucci suitcase.
  • And when we opened it, it was filled with Egyptian artifacts.
  • You're probably wondering how all this stuff ended up in Scottsboro, Alabama.
  • The airlines do an incredible job of reuniting people with their unclaimed bags.
  • In fact, they're successful over 99.5% of the time, but when there are millions of people traveling every single day, that fraction of 1% really adds up, and that's where we step in.
  • After 90 days, unclaimed baggage rescue those orphaned bags.
  • Items are sorted into three categories.
  • Things to be resold in store, donated to charity, or recycled.
  • This is Brian, the CEO.
  • He's lived and breathed unclaimed baggage his whole life.
  • My dad started unclaimed baggage when I was in the sixth grade, back in 1970.
  • One day he was on the radio talking to a friend in Washington, D.C., and he said, we have more unclaimed bags than we know what to do with.
  • So my dad thought, I could do something with those.
  • And so he borrowed $300 from one of my grandfathers in a 1965 Chevy pickup truck.
  • from the other grandfather and went off and bought his first load of bags.
  • In the early days, he got the bags from trailways and bus lines and then moved into the airlines a few years later.
  • I worked there afternoons, summers, weekends, holidays.
  • My brother was involved, my mom was involved, so it really was truly a family business.
  • Unclaimed Baggage has grown from one man and his truck to a store the size of a city block.
  • And they've welcomed millions of people through their doors, including a few return customers.
  • My name's Alan Garner, and I'm a regular shopper at Unclaimed Baggage.
  • I remember going there first time when I was nine years old.
  • My grandmother took me down there.
  • I remember kind of the scavenger hunt even back then.
  • I do have a routine most days.
  • You know, I park at the back, go through those bins and then I'll come into the main building, usually swing by the shoes, check out the shoes, go up to the mezzanine, look at some electronics, video games, sporting goods.
  • I'll swing back down, maybe hit some clothes racks and then I'm out the door headed home.
  • So how much treasure have you found, Alan?
  • I'm not going to say tens of thousands, but I know thousands of items.
  • My wife has told me before I buy anything, I've got to call and ask her first.
  • My most prized find is no longer in my possession.
  • A couple of years ago, I bought a fishing reel, paid $4.95 for it.
  • It was a $700 reel.
  • But I got to looking at it, and I found a man's name on it.
  • And so I was able by Google and research to find that man.
  • And so I ended up mailing his reel back to him.
  • And it was just at a time in his life to where he had lost his wife.
  • He really didn't want to go fishing, but he went fishing and he lost his reel going to the airport.
  • And so I was able to make a friend.
  • He's invited me to his hometown to fish with him at some time.
  • And so, you know, that's probably my most favorite find because I was able to get that back to him.
  • But not everything is for sale.
  • Over a third of items found are donated to charities.
  • Thousands of eyeglasses, wheelchairs, medical supplies, and clothes are given to people in need.
  • And the store has started its own program, Love Luggage, providing personalized suitcases for foster children moving into new homes.
  • Who would have thought that a stranger's lost bag could bring so much joy?
  • The old saying of one man's junk, another man's treasure, we're all wired the same way to where we're looking for that treasure.
