Luggage Storage in Stockholm

Here's their English website. It says it costs 20 SEK per item, and implies that it's for while you're shopping or eating there (so, short term). If you need more information, their store hours, phone and e-mail address are also on that page: http://www.ahlens.se/INTERSHOP/web/WFS/Ahlens-AhlensSE-Site/sv_SE/-/SEK/ViewContent-Start?PageletEntryPointID=20160211_090730#citysthlm

Hi Jon,

There are luggage lockers located inside the Stockholm central train station (Stockholm C). They are called "Förvaringsboxar" or "Speed Lockers" in English and are located on the ground floor next to the escalator and in the Upper hall opposite Panini and Blueberry. There are 2 sizes, Medium and Large, see below for prices:

Medium Box 
Price: 60 SEK for 4 hours
Price: 70 SEK for 24 hours 

Large box 
Price: 80 SEK for 4 hours
Price: 90 SEK for 24 hours

Payment with coins or credit card. Payment with coins, SEK 5 or 10. Storage maximum 7 days. Be sure to keep your receipt, it is your key.

Thanks for the information. It seemed unusual to me that a department store would be this accommodating to the forlorn traveler.

As it turns out, I booked a flight that will permit us to be in Stockholm an additional day, so we'll get a hotel and have a place to drop off the luggage (and avoid the need for a locker).

For future reference, can one usually find a vacant luggage locker at the Stockholm station? We faced a similar situation in Bergen a couple years ago and had to stand around ready to "pounce" when a locker became available--and then our credit card (chip and pin) wouldn't work in the payment kiosk. After going through every credit card we had, one finally was accepted.

Åhléns has different info about its luggage lockers on its Swedish web page so the English page may be out of date. This page shows the price of a small locker (Små förvaringsskåp) as 35 SEK and a large locker ( Stora förvaringsskåp) as 70 SEK. The hours would be the store hours as it is within the store.

As to whether the lockers in the Central Station fill up, it probably depends on the time of year. There are also lockers in the bus terminal (Cityterminalen) across the street from the Central Station.

Thanks, I have been looking for that information! We arrive early morning in Stockholm by cruise ship in mid July and have a late flight and want to visit Stockholm for the day. I have searched for luggage storage information in Rick Steves current Scandinavia and Northern European Cruise guide books and could not find information on luggage storrage. I am surprised in that I have many Steves guide books and they are usually very good with information on luggage storage in train and bus stations.
