ABOUT UNCLAIMED BAGGAGE
As a 55-year-old family-owned company, we have a long-term and purpose-filled vision. Unclaimed Baggage is the only company in the United States that buys and sells the lost luggage of airlines that is never reunited with its owners. Our 50,000-square-foot retail store in Scottsboro, Alabama is a one-of-a-kind destination experience, complemented by a fast-growing online store, which together have created an iconic omni-channel brand that draws people in with a sense of discovery.

This purpose is core to who we are and has guided our decisions for over 55 years.
