Large storage lockers at Penn Station
Hello.
Are there large storage lockers for a full size suitcase located at the station?
Is it reasonable to some that one might be available on a Sunday morning in November around noon?
Thanks.
Baltimore Penn Station does offer luggage storage options, but they are somewhat limited compared to larger transit hubs. Historically, Amtrak stations like Penn Station provide access to luggage services through the Amtrak baggage office, but traditional self-service lockers are not common at this location.
For travelers looking to store a full-size suitcase:
- Amtrak Baggage Service: Full-service baggage check is available if you are traveling with Amtrak. You can check bags to be stored temporarily for a fee, but this typically requires you to be an Amtrak passenger.
- Nearby Luggage Storage Services: There are private companies in Baltimore offering luggage storage near Penn Station. These often have options for large suitcases and can be booked in advance online. They generally operate with secure storage facilities and flexible drop-off and pick-up times.
- Hotel Concierge or Day Use Options: If you are staying at a nearby hotel, some may allow short-term luggage storage even if you are not a guest. This is worth calling ahead to confirm.
Regarding availability on a Sunday around noon in November:
- If using a private storage service or hotel option, it is reasonable to expect availability, though booking ahead is strongly recommended for peace of mind.
- Amtrak baggage services should be available during normal office hours, but check the station’s specific hours for Sunday service.
- Self-service lockers, if any exist, may be limited and could already be in use, so relying solely on lockers without prior arrangements is not recommended.
In summary, for storing a full-size suitcase at Baltimore Penn Station on a Sunday around noon, the most reliable options are private luggage storage facilities nearby or arranging through Amtrak if you are a passenger. It is less certain that self-service lockers would be available at that time.
