So, you’ve just landed at Madrid-Barajas Airport with a layover, a free afternoon, or even a couple of days to explore. You want to explore Madrid, but there’s just one problem: your luggage is holding you hostage.
The good news is that there are plenty of ways to store your bags safely in and around Madrid Airport, no matter what terminal you’re in.

Madrid-Barajas Airport provides its own official luggage storage service known as "Consigna", managed by the Excess Baggage Company. These facilities are located inside the airport in multiple terminals: in Terminal 1 (Arrivals, floor 0), Terminal 2 (Arrivals, floor 1), and Terminal 4 (Arrivals, floor 0).
These facilities are open daily, with Terminal 1 and Terminal 4 operating from 5 AM to 11 PM, and Terminal 2 open from 7 AM to 10 PM. However, it’s important to note that they don’t accept reservations, so availability is on a first-come, first-served basis. Security-wise, each bag is X-rayed, and the storage areas are monitored via CCTV for added safety.
Prices start at 10€/bag for 2 hours of storage for a regular-sized suitcase. Check Consigna for more details on the pricing.
Outside the airport, there are luggage storage networks like Bounce, LuggageHero, Radical Storage, or Nannybag that operate in the surrounding area. These services partner with local shops, cafes, and businesses to act as luggage drop-off points. To use them, you have to book through their app or website.
Bounce stands out for having the highest number of drop-off points near the airport, along with insurance coverage of up to 10 000$.
LuggageHero offers both hourly and daily pricing, which can be helpful if you're only storing a bag for a short time.
Be sure to check each location’s hours of operation and read user reviews to avoid unexpected issues, such as arriving after closing time or dealing with poorly rated facilities that can leave your luggage in unmonitored and unlocked rooms.
Prices start at 4.90€/day for a regular-sized suitcase, making them one of the most affordable options. But it comes at a cost: you’ll need to travel out of the airport to reach these locations, and depending on your terminal, that could take anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes.
If you have time to spare, Madrid is bursting with possibilities. After you’ve stored your luggage, hop on the metro or train to the city center and make the most of your stopover. For some recommendations, check out our full guide on what to do during a layover in Madrid.
