Question
If someone sees an abandoned and neglected supermarket cart, is he obligated to return the cart himself to the supermarket it belongs to according to the law of returning lost property, or should he call the supermarket and inform them of the location where the cart was abandoned, and he is not required to carry the cart to the supermarket himself?
Answer
Shalom Rav
You should inform the store where the cart is located, and you are not obligated to return it yourself.
