If you host on Airbnb, you’ve seen this message more times than you can count:
“Hey, can I drop my bags off early?”
“Is there anywhere I can leave my luggage after check out?”
About 1 in 2 guests ask for early check in or late luggage storage. For hosts, that’s a daily juggle. Say yes and your cleaning slot gets squeezed. Say no and you risk an unhappy guest, a stressed message thread, or worse, a bad review.
There’s a simple fix. It’s called Stasher, and it doesn’t cost you a thing. In fact, it pays you.
The luggage problem every host knows too well
Guests arrive early. Flights leave late. Cleaners need their window. None of these things line up with the standard check in and check out times.
Most of the time, the request sounds harmless. “Can I just leave my suitcase by the door?” But that one bag often turns into:
- A trip back to the property in the middle of your day
- A grumpy cleaner who can’t move freely
- A delayed turnover that pushes back the next guest
- An awkward conversation when you have to say no
Multiply that by a few bookings a week and it adds up to real time, real stress, and sometimes real money lost.

How it works in 3 simple steps
1. Share your link. Stasher gives you your own referral link. Drop it into your welcome message, check out instructions, or listing FAQ.
2. Your guest books. They click the link, pick a storage spot nearby, and drop off their bags in minutes.
3. You earn commission. Every booking made through your link puts money in your pocket. No admin, no chasing, no extra work.
That’s it. No app to install, no contracts, no setup fees.
When do guests actually use it?
Pretty much any time their schedule doesn’t match the keys. The most common moments:
- Early arrivals. Their flight lands at 8am but check in is at 3pm. Instead of waiting around with bags, they go explore.
- Late departures. They check out at 11am but their flight is at 9pm. Stasher gives them a free day instead of a wasted one.
- Day trips. They want to head out of the city for a day without dragging suitcases on a train.
- Awkward gaps. Moving between properties, catching a late train, or stopping for lunch on the way to the airport.
In every one of these moments, your link is the answer.
Why hosts love it
- Smoother turnovers. No bags blocking the hallway while your cleaner is flipping the property.
- Happier guests. They keep exploring instead of dragging suitcases around the city.
- Better reviews. Sorting the luggage problem upfront makes you look like a five star host.
- Extra income. You earn a commission on every booking your guests make through your link.
- Zero risk. Every bag is insured up to £1,200 and every storage spot is checked and approved by the Stasher team.
How safe is it?
This is the question most hosts ask first. Fair enough.
Every Stasher location is a real business, not someone’s living room. Think small hotels, cafes, gift shops, and convenience stores that already handle their own stock and customer service. They’re vetted by the Stasher team, security tagged, and rated by every guest after every booking.
If anything goes wrong, the £1,200 insurance per booking has your guests covered, and the 24/7 support team is on standby through the live chat on stasher.com.
