Lockers at Stockholm station

You’ve probably experienced it before: you’re on city trip and your hotel is not in the city center or you can not check in yet and you’re looking for a place where you can safely leave your luggage. Good news: you do not have to drag your luggage all the time because in Stockholm Centralen you will find different places where they have lockers. There are 2 sizes: little ones that fit a hand-luggage box (36cm x 44cm x 60cm) and larger ones for larger suitcases (46cm x 60cm x 85cm).

A few years ago the prices have gone up a lot but I still think it is worth not having to drag your suitcase through town. A small box is 39 SEK per hour, with a max. of 199 SEK for 24 hours. A large box is 69 SEK/hour and 299 SEK for 24 hours.

Pay by card

The system of the lockers in Stockholm Centralen is really simple. There are step-by-step explanations in English on the screens. In short: you choose an empty locker, put your luggage in it, close the locker and keep the closure down for 3 seconds and you pay by card. Keep track of your ‘kvittot’ or your receipt. This is where the code you need to reopen your locker is printed.

I always take a picture of the receipt. In case I lose the note, I can still get my luggage.

There are several places in Stockholm Centralen where you can find lockers. Remember which ones you used! The station in Stockholm has several levels and a lot of corridors. It’s easy to get lost. Because I usually travel to the airport with Flygbussarna , I always take the lockers just at Cityterminalen (take the escalator upstairs). Especially when returning, I lose a minimum of time and can max my time in Stockholm.
