Inexpensive Luggage lockers in Frankfurt

Hi,

I am visiting Frankfurt in January and looking for cheap and safe luggage locker for around 2 - 3 (mid to large sized) bag for 15 days. The one at the airport is way to expensive. Can someone please suggest a better option for which I might not have to go too out of the way, that is closer to Frankfurt Main airport?

Thanks !!

There are lockers in the train station, however, as far as I know, 72 hours is the limit. There are also lockers in the Hauptwache subway station, but again I highly doubt they can be rented for 15 days.

And for that period it will be expensive, but I agree - there is a limit on how long you can store it in public space. Safety reason - at least we have lockers! In London they don´t.

Considering the fact that you will very likely arrive and depart from Frankfurt, I would go with the option of the airport if you do not find anyone private. Have you checked with your hotel?

Frankfurt Hbf still offers a left luggage desk (besides the lockers) which is good for longer periods. it's 6,50 per item/day, which I consider rather reasonable, yet which will add up quite quickly. further, the DB homepage indicates 'Handgepäckaufbewahrung', i.e. hand luggage, which I consider odd, so maybe get in touch with them. be aware of the limited opening hours, too!

there are storage companies that offer 2sqm boxes from 51 Euro/month, yet I'm not sure how much paperwork and other hassle would be involved. in case the idea appeals to you, I again would recommend getting in touch with them beforehand, e.g. with these ones (randomly picked because they had a homepage in English).

p.s. just realised you're pretty new to the board: please note that it's very much appreciated when users indicate that they've read the replies - otherwise regulars sometimes fear they're wasting their time ;-)
save and happy travels!

thanks. The 72 hour stipulation and costs for around 3 baggage was really making it impossible to make it happen. Have got in touch with airbnb and asked a host to store our luggage for 2 weeks. And that is the only way I could figure out :( Anyway, thanks you all for the links.

Cheers !
