There are numerous options to where to store your luggage in Venice. The most obvious places are the airport, the train stations, the port, and the car terminal. Understanding how to get around in Venice with luggage can be difficult.
The Marco Polo airport has a left luggage service in the arrival area, near entrance 1, open every day from 05 am to 10 pm, at €7 per bag for the first 6 hours plus €0.30 per hour thereafter. In Piazzale Roma, near the people mover station, is another storage open every day from 6 am to 9 pm at €7 per bag per 24 hours. The left luggage service at the train station is open from 06 am to 11 pm and charges €6 for the first 5 hours, then €0.90 per hour until the 12th and €0.40 per hour after the 12th.

Bagbnb watches over your possessions in several places for €5 per day per bag. In Venice, they have six storage points (with different opening times) in vital locations, from the train station to St. Mark’s Square. Once you’ve booked, you’ll receive an email with the precise address. They guarantee a 3-minute tops check-in. Quick!
Stasher is another online service that charges €6 for the first day and €5 for the next days. Online booking is compulsory. They have three points in Venice.
The local version of these global services is Vaise (that means suitcases in Venetian). Two storages, near Rialto and near piazza San Marco, with boxes big enough to accommodate up to four trolley cases. Advance booking is not compulsory and the price is €2.50 per hour per box, while for over 5 hours it’s €12.50 per day. They are open every day from 8 am to 9 pm. It seems more expensive but it’s actually convenient if your bags fit in one box.
