Table of Contents
At a Glance, in Order of Importance

- Chamlockers, right opposite the station, is the simplest self-service option
- Several drop-off points are hidden inside shops (a bookshop, a shop in an arcade, a café) — we give the exact address for each one

- Book ahead through the app in high season; some points close at lunchtime
1. No More Storage at the Station: Here's the Alternative
The gare SNCF in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc no longer has luggage lockers. The simplest alternative, right opposite, is a self-service automated locker facility.
- Chamlockers (47 Place de la Gare, opposite the station) — self-service automated lockers, open from 7h to 23h. Sizes S to XL: from €9/day (S) to €21/day (XL), with reduced rates from 2 days onwards. Skis and snowboards do not fit in the lockers
2. Discreet Storage Points, Hidden Inside Shops in the Centre
The Nannybag, Bounce and Radical Storage networks set up their drop-off points inside existing businesses — a bookshop, a boutique, a café. It is convenient, but often hard to spot without the exact address: here are the three confirmed points in the town centre.
- Bookshop/souvenir shop, 74 Rue Joseph Vallot (5 min walk from the station) — Nannybag & Bounce point, from €4.40/day. Reviews: very welcoming staff, with one customer recounting that the shop reopened specially during its lunch break to hand back his bag; note that Google Maps sometimes places this point at the station itself, which is not correct
- Shop in the Galerie Blanc Neige, 262 Rue du Docteur Paccard — Nannybag & Bounce point, from €4.40/day. Reviews: very handy once you find it, but several customers report that it is “caché dans une galerie marchande”: go into the arcade, straight ahead, and it is on your right. Check the opening hours, as it may close at lunchtime
- Arcus Coffee, 263 Avenue Cachat le Géant (about 5 min from the station) — Radical Storage point, from €3.90/day. Reviews: staff described as very efficient; it is a working café, so a short wait is possible if the team is busy, and the hours listed online (around 8h30-16h) can vary
3. Near the Aiguille du Midi Cable Car
Ideal if you are checking out of your accommodation but still plan one last trip up the mountain before you leave.
- Concept Pro Shop, 610 Route Blanche (Chamonix Sud, behind the Aiguille du Midi cable car station) — Nannybag & Bounce point, from €4.40/day. Reviews: a well-established mountain equipment shop since 2013, service described as “très rapide”, more than 500 positive reviews; a little way out of the town centre, so factor it into your route
4. Sizes and Prices Compared
A quick overview to help you choose according to your budget and the size of your bags.
- Cheapest: Arcus Coffee, from €3.90/day per bag
- Most flexible hours: Chamlockers, open 7h-23h and self-service, so not dependent on a shop's opening hours
- Most central for wandering around town: the shop in the Galerie Blanc Neige (Rue du Docteur Paccard)
- Best placed before a last walk up the mountain: Concept Pro Shop, on the cable car side
- None of the options takes skis, snowboards or oversized luggage — check with the business if you are unsure

5. How to Spot Them (They Really Are Hard to Find)
Most of these addresses have no obvious “luggage storage” shopfront — they are ordinary businesses that also offer the service. Use the Google Maps links below to open directions straight to each address from your phone, rather than looking for a sign visible from the street.
6. Practical Tips
Book online through the Nannybag, Bounce or Radical Storage app before you set off, especially in high season (Christmas, February, summer): it guarantees a space and often a slightly lower price. Check each business’s opening hours before you head over, as some close between 12h and 14h. None of these options accepts skis, snowboards or oversized luggage — make other arrangements for your sports gear.
