As one of the largest tourist destinations in the state of Alabama, Unclaimed Baggage attracts over one million visitors each year from all 50 states and over 40 foreign countries and has been featured by a number of major media outlets, including National Geographic, Good Morning America, Vogue, and The New York Times.

Our Culture

Our Purpose is to “Redeem the lost, unclaimed, and rejected for the glory of God.” As a lost luggage business, this is clearly manifest in how we repurpose forgotten items that would otherwise end up in landfills, but we also strive to redeem people and communities through our Reclaimed for Good foundation, providing suitcases, clothing, medical supplies, and eyeglasses to those who need them all around the world. This purpose is core to who we are and has guided our decisions for over 55 years.
