I left my bags at a hotel in Seattle. The staff was so friendly and the whole process was smooth from drop off to pick up. Great experience all around!
- adrienne
Close to space needle area. We used day after cruise to store while exploring Seattle. Staff was very friendly and a Starbucks is connected.
- Kelsey
Great service and very helpful. Bit of a trek from downtown if walking but easily accessible from the monorail once you realised it was there. Should tell the cruise companies as lots of passengers would enjoy seeing Seattle before going to the airport to return home.

Easy to book & great facility, thanks!
- Carol
Useful service and convenient location. Not lockers as we expected, but a shop which stores luggage behind the counter. We were given a receipt, and were a bit doubtful as to security, but everything was fine. Would use again in similar circumstances.

First time using this service and I loved it. Totally saved the day! I was going to Canada and had to store some items that I couldn't take into the country due to quantity. Everything was perfect and affordable. Thanks!

Luggage storage and bag rules at the Space Needle
Getting to the top of the Space Needle with a bag in tow isn't on the cards, so knowing where to leave one before you line up in Seattle makes the whole visit lighter.
The area right around it is also sparse: Pike Place Market has no lockers or storage at all, while the Pier 66 cruise terminal offers a same-day bag desk. The Monorail is the quickest way up from downtown with luggage in tow. Oversized suitcases that exceed carry-on dimensions will not fit in the Space Needle's on-site lockers. The locker service is free for the first two hours. You will need to pass through a security screening for yourself and your bags upon entry. Most visits last about one to one-and-a-half hours. With Stasher, you can store bags from $2.49 per bag per day.
Some top Stasher locations near the Space Needle include:
- Local shop, 5 min walk · open from 09:30
- Restaurant, 8 min walk · open 12:00–23:00 every day
You'll typically find a bag drop at local shops, restaurants and hotel receptions. Of the nearby points, 2 stay open late. Every booking comes with the Stasher Guarantee, which protects your bags up to US$13,000. Stasher storage near the Space Needle can be booked through the website or app.

Getting to the Space Needle with luggage
The Seattle Center Monorail station sits adjacent to the Space Needle within the Seattle Center complex. The monorail is the fastest public transport link between Seattle Center and downtown Seattle at Westlake Center, so if you're coming up from the city centre with a bag, that's the quickest ride.
Nearby sights and their own bag rules
Pike Place Market, a 9-acre historic public market in downtown Seattle with small independent businesses, farmers, artists, and craftspeople, doesn't offer any lockers or storage for visitors. Pier 66 is an 11-acre multi-use complex anchored by the Bell Street Cruise Terminal, the homeport for Norwegian Cruise Line and Oceania Cruises.
It does have same-day luggage storage in the Crew Center at the south end of the building for $6 per bag, with all bags collected by 3:00 p.m. There's no direct public transport from the airport to Pier 66, but you can take the Link Light Rail to Westlake Station, then it's a 6-minute car ride or a 20-minute walk to the terminal.
The Museum of Pop Culture (MOPOP) is dedicated to music, film, fashion, and gaming, and the Seattle Center Monorail station is adjacent to it.
