We stored luggage for ten days. Super convenient and felt that it was secure in a locked storage room with staff on premise 24/7. Very easy to drop off and pick up. Would definitely use Stasher at this location again.

Left my case in what was my second hotel I was staying at. Basically checked out of one at a certain time and wasnt alowed to check into my second hotel until after 3pm so booked a safe place to store my case as I didnt want to carry it around with me while shopping locally. No issues had when I arrived and was given a little piece of paper to hand back in when collected so they knew which was my bag.

What you can bring inside Manchester Central
Stasher has no bag size or weight limits, making it a practical external option for suitcases and other larger items. Manchester Central recommends bringing only one small bag or handbag to keep security screening efficient. Every visitor may be searched, including those with large bags or suitcases.
Checks can include Opengate screening, manual bag searches, and possible screening with search dogs or wands. The exact measures are set with event organisers for each event, so entry procedures may vary.
A complimentary cloakroom is available in the Central Foyer for most events. Items must be searched by security before they are left there, and overnight storage is not permitted. The cloakroom therefore covers searched items during the event, while external luggage storage is the better fit for a suitcase or anything you need stored overnight.
Getting to Manchester Central and dropping off before doors
A nearby luggage-storage spot can be booked online with a trusted local shop or hotel, or through a self-service smart locker. The bag is kept safely out of sight until collection, so match the location to the time you expect to reach Manchester Central.
St Peter’s Square is the nearest Metrolink tram stop, a few minutes away on foot. Oxford Road Station is a 5-10 minute walk from the venue. The free Manchester bus service stops nearby on Peter Street and Deansgate. These transport points give clear arrival references when booking somewhere to store your bags before heading to Manchester Central.
Collecting your bag after the event
Two Stasher points near Manchester Central stay open late. That gives a realistic option for collecting a bag after a post-show or post-conference finish, including when the venue cloakroom is closed or unavailable. Every booking near Manchester Central is covered by the Stasher Guarantee up to £10,000 per booking, offering reassurance while your luggage is stored. The points are near Manchester Central, not inside it.
