luggage lockers at milan central train station

Hello, I am trying to find out how long i can leave my luggage at the left luggage lockers at the milan train station.

I have been on their site and the costs and sizes are listed but there is nothing indicating how long you can leave it there. A day? Hours? Five days?

Does anyone know or have a link that specifies the maximum leave time? I have sent an email to the 'contact us' email address but there has been no response.

thank you in advance.

The rates are € 6.00 for each bag for the first 5 hours and € 1 for each additional hour from 6 to 12 and € 0.50 for each subsequent hour.

It was 24 hours may be ten years when we were there. Lockers are generally not viewed as long time storage. The whole issue of leaving a bomb behind is frown on.

Note that they are not actually lockers that you control, but a staffed storage room, as in other Italian stations. They get a better look at you to trust that you’re not leaving a bomb. They probably don’t have a time limit that would affect most tourists, but charging by the hour is not conducive to long-term storage. https://www.milanocentrale.it/en/service/detail/left-luggage1

thank you for the replies, including the humor! We arrive in milan and are going to varenna for two nights before returning to Milan for a few days. We were trying not to carry our heavier bag with us to lake como and pick it when we returned. I will look for options. Again thanks for the replies.

hillrico, they are only half joking: lockers were actually forbidden after the Bologna station bombing in August 1980.
