Best Areas to Store Luggage in Washington DC

Washington DC is organized around several major landmarks and districts, and the most convenient place to leave your bags often depends on what you plan to visit first.

Some travelers arrive by train at Union Station, others explore museums along the National Mall, while many head toward government buildings and historic monuments. Below are some of the most practical areas where visitors typically store luggage before exploring the city.

No problems at all, we dropped off our luggage at BASICMART, Tottenham Court Road around 10am and returned later at 6.30pm as arranged to collect. It was brought up into the shop after being stored downstairs. Staff were very pleasant and I wouldn’t hesitate to use the service again. An easy option for storing luggage. It cost us £13.50 for two items which included Radical Storage insurance (£3.50) which isnt optional. Just be aware to try and put an accurate time for collection as I received texts with an option to extend it for a cost if I was going to be later than the specified time so perhaps they charge more if you collect after your agreed time, not sure?

Super easy and very friendly service! "If you're traveling through Euston, this is the best way to handle your luggage. The check-in was fast with a quick QR scan, and the people at the shop were lovely. My bags were kept safe while I explored the city for the afternoon. It’s a much better price than the official left luggage office, and the location is just a stone's throw from the platforms. 10/10 would use again

Fantastic service and great location! "Top-notch experience! The storage spot is in a great location near Princes Street Gardens, making it so convenient to drop off bags and get straight to sightseeing. The staff were very friendly and the whole process was seamless. It felt very safe leaving my luggage here. I’ll definitely use Radical Storage again next time I’m in town
abdul w.
I am so happy I found this storage spot right near Princes Street Gardens. I wanted to enjoy a walk through the gardens and see the Castle without dragging my heavy suitcases uphill, and this was the perfect solution. The booking was super easy, and the staff at the shop were incredibly welcoming and kind. My bags were kept very secure, and it's much more affordable than the lockers at the station. Definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the city

If you need to drop your bags near South Kensington or Old Brompton, honestly, look no further. I booked it online in seconds and the check-in was so smooth. The 'Angel' (the shop owner) was lovely and very welcoming. It’s much more affordable than the big station lockers and felt very secure. It really allowed me to enjoy my afternoon walk and lunch without being weighed down. 10/10

Fantastic service! I used this Radical Storage location while waiting for my train and it was perfect. It’s located right in the main concourse, so it couldn't be more convenient. The staff were lovely, the price was great, and I loved the peace of mind knowing my luggage was secure. I’ll definitely be using them again next time I’m at Victoria

The best way to store luggage in Central London Quick tip for anyone traveling through Leicester Square: Radical Storage is a lifesaver! I booked it online in about two minutes. The location was really convenient and easy to find. It’s such a relief to walk around the West End without heavy suitcases. The price is great, and knowing the bags are insured gives you that extra peace of mind. Definitely making this my go-to every time I'm in London
abdul w.
Highly recommend using Radical Storage if you’re near Leicester Square. It’s located in a local business right on Cranbourn Street, so it’s very easy to find. The staff were friendly, they scanned my QR code, tagged my bag, and I was on my way. The price is unbeatable for this part of London, especially since they don't have size limits for large bags. I’ll definitely be using this service again

Booking was easy to make, perfect location and the staff was nice. Highly recommended
steven j.
This worked out great for us as American tourists coming in on a morning train from Switz with check-in later in day. For about 15 euros, we were able to store 2 bags from AM up until 530 without much hassle. Just click a quick QR code in the store, leave bags, and the guy we interacted with was very nice and helpful.
