Luggage storage in South Africa

Leave your bags. Get on with your day.

Book a spot at a checked local business near you, drop your bags off, and collect them when you are ready.

When you need it

For the hours in between.

Arriving

Landed before check-in

Your room is not ready until the afternoon. Leave your bags and start exploring now.

Leaving

Checked out before your flight

Checkout is at ten, your flight is at eight. Spend the time on lunch, not on guarding a suitcase.

Exploring

A day out without your bags

Between stops on a road trip, or in town for a meeting. Walk around with your hands free.

How it works

Four steps, all in the app.

  1. 01

    Find a spot near you

    Open the map and pick a host close to where you are, or where you are heading.

  2. 02

    Book and pay in the app

    Choose your bags and drop-off time. You get an access code straight away.

  3. 03

    Drop off

    Show your code. Each bag gets a numbered tamper seal before it is stored.

  4. 04

    Collect

    You are scanned out and your seals are checked against your booking.

Why you can trust it

You can book days ahead or on the day, as long as the spot has space. In busy seasons, booking early is a good idea.
