Reliable luggage storage allows you to explore Andalucian cities without the burden of heavy bags during early arrivals or late departures.

Finding a place to store your bags in Andalucía is straightforward if you know where to look. While many major train stations have removed their internal lockers for security reasons, private locker shops and app-based storage networks have expanded significantly. You can expect to pay between €4 and €10 per day depending on the size of your bag and the city you are visiting.

The Current State of Station Storage

Historically, Renfe/ADIF train stations provided left-luggage offices (consignas). However, security protocols have led to the closure of these facilities in many locations. Currently, Málaga María Zambrano is one of the few major stations in Andalucía that still maintains an internal luggage storage area. In Seville, Córdoba, and Granada, you will usually need to use private facilities located immediately outside the station perimeter.

Luggage Storage Apps and Networks

If a station does not have lockers, the most reliable method is to use a storage app. These services partner with local hotels, cafes, and shops to provide secure storage space.

• Bounce: Has the largest coverage in Andalucía. Prices start around €5 per bag per 24 hours.
• Stasher: Partners with reputable hotel chains and local shops. Flat fee usually includes insurance.
• Nannybag: Fixed price of €6 per bag for 24 hours. No weight or size limits in most locations.
• Radical Storage: Large presence in Seville and Málaga. Charges roughly €5 per bag per day.

Note: Most of these services require an online booking in advance. You cannot usually walk into a partner shop and pay cash.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to leave my bags in these lockers?

Automated locker shops use CCTV and unique pin codes. App-based services (Bounce/Stasher) include insurance (often up to €1,000 or more) in the booking price. Always ensure you receive a physical or digital tag for your bag when dropping it off at a shop or hotel.

Can I store oversized items like bicycles or surfboards?

Standard lockers will not fit these. You should use app-based services and specifically look for "Hotel" partners, as they often have dedicated luggage rooms that can accommodate larger items. Málaga Airport's storage facility also accepts special equipment for an additional fee.

Do I need to pay in cash?

Most automated locker shops in city centres accept debit and credit cards. Apps require payment via their platform. Bus station lockers often still require coins, though newer machines are being phased in that accept contactless payments.

Are these services open 24/7?

Automated locker storefronts (like Locker in the City) are typically open 24/7. Storage inside bus or train stations is limited by the station's operating hours, usually closing between 23:00 and 06:00. Check the specific closing time to avoid being unable to retrieve your bags before a late flight or train.

Summary

• Avoid the search: Most train stations (except Málaga) do not have lockers; use the bus station or a private locker shop nearby.
• Book ahead: Use apps like Bounce or Nannybag for the best prices and guaranteed space in city centres.
• Budget: Expect to pay €5–€7 per day for a standard suitcase.
• Check hours: Ensure your chosen location is open late enough for your departure.
