Arriving before hotel check-in or leaving the city hours after check-out can turn a good travel day into a logistical problem. DROP&WALK offers a simple alternative: private, self-service luggage lockers that can be booked online and accessed without waiting at a reception desk.

DROP&WALK currently operates 24/7 luggage storage locations in central Alicante, Valencia, Granada and Madrid. Travellers choose a city, locker size and rental period online, then receive their access details by email. The result is straightforward: store your bags, keep your plans and explore the city hands-free.

What is DROP&WALK?

DROP&WALK is a Spanish network of automated luggage locker facilities created for real travel situations: early arrivals, late departures, short stopovers and days when carrying a suitcase simply gets in the way.

Each booking assigns the customer an individual locker. There is no need to leave luggage with a shop, hotel reception or third-party host. The locations are self-service, while text support is available if help is needed with a reservation or access.

• Service: automated self-service luggage lockers
• Current cities: Alicante, Valencia, Granada and Madrid
• Opening hours: 24 hours a day, seven days a week
• Booking: online at dropandwalk.com

How do DROP&WALK luggage lockers work?

The complete process takes place online and is designed to be easy to follow from a mobile phone.

1. Choose your city. Select Alicante, Valencia, Granada or Madrid.
2. Select a locker. Choose the size and rental period that suit your luggage and schedule.
3. Book online. Enter your contact details and complete the payment.
4. Check your email. Your access information and instructions are sent after booking.
5. Store your luggage. Enter the premises, open the assigned locker and enjoy the city without your bags.

A locker can be opened more than once while the reservation is active. If you need to collect a jacket, add a shopping bag or reorganise your belongings, choose the option to open the locker and continue the rental rather than ending it.

Which luggage locker size should you choose?

The best size depends on the largest item you want to store, not only on the number of bags. Exact dimensions and live availability should always be checked during booking because locker formats may vary by location.

M locker

A practical option for a backpack, handbag or another small piece of luggage.

L locker

Recommended for cabin luggage. One L locker can usually hold two standard cabin-size suitcases and a small backpack or bag, depending on their exact shape.

XL locker

Recommended for one large checked suitcase, including a typical 20 kg suitcase. Large rigid suitcases normally require one XL locker each.

If you are unsure, contact DROP&WALK before booking and provide the city, number of bags and approximate suitcase sizes. This helps the support team recommend the most suitable option.

When is luggage storage useful?

Luggage storage is most useful when your travel schedule and accommodation schedule do not match. A central locker can give you several extra hours to enjoy the destination instead of waiting with your bags.

• you arrive before your hotel or apartment check-in;
• you check out several hours before your flight, train or bus;
• you are visiting the city during a stopover;
• you want to visit a museum, restaurant, shop or beach without luggage;
• you are travelling with children and want to keep your hands free;
• you need access early in the morning or late at night;
• you want a private locker instead of leaving bags at a staffed counter.

DROP&WALK luggage storage locations in Spain

All current DROP&WALK locations are in central areas that travellers already use. Each city page contains the exact location, current availability and booking options.

Luggage storage in Alicante city centre

Address: Calle Susana Llaneras, 52, 03001 Alicante

DROP&WALK Alicante is located close to the Central Market, Teatro Principal, Rambla de Méndez Núñez and the route towards Alicante's old town and Postiguet Beach. It is useful for travellers arriving before check-in, leaving after check-out or using the C6 airport bus.

Alicante is an easy city to explore on foot, but warm weather and seaside routes are much more enjoyable without a heavy suitcase. Booking a central locker lets you use your remaining time for the old town, the port, the beach or Santa Bárbara Castle.

Luggage storage in central Valencia

Address: Carrer de Sant Vicent Màrtir, 51 izquierda, 46002 Valencia

DROP&WALK Valencia is close to Plaza del Ayuntamiento, Estación del Norte and the Central Market. Its position makes it easy to include in a walking route through the historic centre without making a long detour to store or collect luggage.

Once your bags are stored, you can have lunch, visit the market, walk towards the cathedral, shop in the centre or enjoy the last hours of your stay without pulling a suitcase through busy streets.

Luggage storage in Granada city centre

Address: Calle Montereros, 3, 18001 Granada

DROP&WALK Granada is near Puerta Real, Calle Recogidas, Plaza Bib-Rambla and Granada Cathedral. The city's cobbled streets, narrow lanes and hills make a luggage locker particularly useful for anyone with a wheeled suitcase.

Store your bags before exploring the centre, visiting local cafés or continuing towards the Albaicín. The facility is open 24/7 and works through online booking and self-service access.

Luggage storage near Puerta del Sol in Madrid

Address: Calle de Espoz y Mina, 32, 28012 Madrid

DROP&WALK Madrid is a short walk from Puerta del Sol, with convenient access to Plaza Mayor, Gran Vía and the streets of central Madrid. It is a practical option for early arrivals, late departures and short connections in the capital.

Instead of taking luggage through crowded central streets, you can reserve a locker before arrival, store your bags and continue with lunch, shopping, sightseeing or a meeting.

Why choose a self-service luggage locker?

24/7 access

Travel does not always follow reception hours. DROP&WALK locations are open around the clock, so customers can arrive early or collect bags late as long as the selected time is covered by the booking.

Individual locker space

Each reservation is linked to an assigned locker. Your belongings are not mixed with luggage from other customers or handed to an unrelated third-party host.

Online booking before arrival

Available locker sizes, rental periods and prices are displayed before payment. Booking in advance confirms availability and provides access information before you reach the location.

Central locations

The four current facilities are positioned near major squares, historic centres, public transport and popular walking routes. This reduces unnecessary travel just to leave or collect a suitcase.

Access during the rental period

Customers can reopen their locker while the booking remains active. This is useful when plans change during the day or an item is needed before final collection.

Human support when needed

The facilities are automated, but assistance is available by text. For help, send a WhatsApp message to +34 691 106 147 or email info@dropandwalk.com.

Frequently asked questions

Is DROP&WALK open 24 hours?

Yes. Current DROP&WALK locations in Alicante, Valencia, Granada and Madrid are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Do I need to reserve a luggage locker in advance?

Advance booking is recommended because it confirms availability and gives you the access details before arrival. You can also book from your phone at the location if a suitable locker is still available.

How are the entrance and locker codes delivered?

The access information is sent to the email address entered during booking. Check the address carefully before payment and look in the spam folder if the message does not appear in the inbox.

Can I open my locker more than once?

Yes. You may open and close the assigned locker as often as necessary during the paid rental period. Choose the option to open and continue the rental if you still need the locker.

Can two cabin suitcases fit in one locker?

Two standard cabin-size suitcases and a small bag can usually fit in one L locker, depending on their exact measurements and shape. A large checked suitcase normally requires an XL locker.

How long can luggage be stored?

DROP&WALK offers short-stay and 24-hour options. Available rental periods depend on the city and are displayed during booking. Contact support for longer or multi-day storage.

What happens if I arrive a few minutes late?

There is a five-minute grace period. After that, additional time is charged according to the locker size and applicable rate. Follow the payment instructions provided when collecting the luggage or contact support to arrange a longer extension.

Are prices the same in every city?

No. Prices depend on the location, locker size and rental period. The final amount is displayed before payment so it can be reviewed before the reservation is confirmed.

Is there staff at the location?

DROP&WALK is an automated self-service service and does not require an on-site reception desk. Text support is available if assistance is needed.
