Luggage storage at Birmingham Coach Station

Lots of people arrive at Birmingham Coach Station with more than they want to carry, whether they're changing onto a train or waiting for a flight.

The coach station itself has no left luggage desk, but New Street station's staffed facility is a ten-minute walk away. Nearby venues are even less forgiving: the Hippodrome has no cloakroom and turns away anything bigger than 40 x 25 x 25cm, while the O2 Institute only takes bags up to A4 size. From here, you can catch coaches to destinations across Great Britain, as well as direct services to Belfast and Dublin. Stasher bookings around the coach station are busiest at weekends and in May and November, so securing a spot in advance is wise. The most popular drop-off window booked with Stasher near the coach station is 10:00–13:00, so plan for a slightly longer wait if you arrive during that time.

Trains, New Street and getting around with luggage

Birmingham Coach Station is a 10-minute walk from Birmingham New Street, the major rail hub for the city centre. New Street does have a left luggage facility, open Monday to Saturday from 07:00 to 23:00 and Sunday from 08:00 to 23:00. That makes it the closest staffed option to the coach station, though you'll be carrying your bag for those ten minutes. If you're heading to the airport, there's no direct train from New Street to Birmingham Airport — you take a train to Birmingham International, then the free AirLink shuttle onward. That extra transfer is worth factoring in if you're travelling with heavier luggage.

Nearby venues: bag rules at the Hippodrome and O2 Institute

Birmingham Hippodrome, about a 5-minute walk from New Street and 10 from Moor Street, has no cloakroom and won't let bags or suitcases larger than 40 x 25 x 25cm inside. The O2 Institute Birmingham, roughly 0.5 miles from New Street, does provide a cloakroom, but visitors can't bring luggage or bags larger than A4 size (29.7cm x 21cm x 15cm) into the venue. Both are strict enough that a wheeled suitcase simply won't pass the door, so plan where your larger bag goes before you set off.
