All went very easy, ground floor, no need to carry luggage, close to train station. You take pictures with your luggage and attached numbers to identify when pick up. Recommended

Easy to find, great location for station and all straight forward
- Cynthia
We paid for Stasher, but did not get to use it because we missed our flight due to a weather delay. It was easy to find a convenient location and to book though, so we’d use this service if we had a need in the future.
- Ben
Great job by the bike shop holding our bags ina secure room in the back and being very friendly.
- Michelle
It was very easy to go online and find the best location to suit my bag drop off. Being able to pay online also ensures that you know your booking is done and you don't still need to deal with payment when dropping your bag. The booking was also really simple and easy to do.
- Ruben
Amazing concept, and super handy as my hotel didn't have any storage space. Seems to be quite common in Amsterdam. Hopped in and out of the shop within seconds, and all was taken care of properly. Nothing to complain, definitely recommend this service.

Bag rules and storage at the Van Gogh Museum
The Van Gogh Museum sits on Museumplein, served by trams 2, 5 and 24 and buses 357 and 397, with Concertgebouw as the next stop on the same lines.
It has an official self-service cloakroom with lockers for coats, handbags, small backpacks up to 45×25×25 cm, and umbrellas. That same size limit is the hard rule for getting anything inside: items larger than 45×25×25 cm are prohibited outright, and the cloakroom won't take large rucksacks, bags, or any wheeled suitcase.
There's no clear-bag rule, but security may screen bags at the entrance and visitors must cooperate with a search of bags, coats, and other carried objects when asked.
Every visit also needs a pre-booked ticket with a specific start time, so arriving with a bag you can't store means a missed slot and a wasted trip. With Stasher, you can store bags from €1.49 per bag per day at 10+ locations near The Van Gogh Museum.

Getting to the museum with your bags
From Museumplein, the closest practical tram stop, the museum entrance is about a 2-minute walk. Concertgebouw is nearby too, on trams 5, 12 and 24 and buses 347 and 357. Metro 52 stops at Vijzelgracht, an 8-minute walk away, if you're coming from elsewhere in the city. The Amsterdam Airport Express bus 397 runs direct from Schiphol to Museumplein, so anyone landing with cabin baggage the museum won't accept needs a plan before boarding.
Nearby storage and bag rules at other sights
The Heineken Experience offers a free cloakroom for small bags up to 32×25.5×49 cm, but trolley suitcases and cabin baggage cannot be stored there. The Rijksmuseum has a free, supervised cloakroom for daypacks and umbrellas, though it too has no facilities for large bags or travel luggage.
If you're arriving by train, Amsterdam Centraal has official NS luggage lockers outside the station building at the western end, a place to leave bags the Van Gogh Museum won't take.
