Need LaGuardia luggage storage so you can explore New York before your flight? BagsAway doesn't have a location at or next to LaGuardia Airport (LGA), but a bus-and-subway trip gets you to Manhattan, where staffed partner locations near Port Authority, Penn Station and the Upper East Side store bags from $0.90/hr.
Is there luggage storage at LaGuardia?
Like most US airports, LaGuardia doesn't have self-service lockers in the terminals, and any in-airport bag service can change, so check the official LaGuardia Airport website if you want to store at the airport itself. If you're heading into the city anyway, dropping your bags in Manhattan lets you spend the day hands-free.

Getting from LaGuardia to Manhattan with luggage
LaGuardia has no rail link, so most travellers take a bus to the subway:
- Q70 LaGuardia Link: runs from the terminals to Jackson Heights–Roosevelt Av / 74 St–Broadway (E, F, M, R and 7 trains) and Woodside–61 St (7 train and LIRR).
- E train from Jackson Heights to 42 St–Port Authority and 34 St–Penn Station.
- 7 train to Times Sq–42 St and Grand Central–42 St.
- M60 Select Bus Service: runs to Upper Manhattan along 125th Street.
Coming in via Grand Central? Read our Grand Central luggage storage guide. Taxis and rideshares are also available at the terminals; allow extra time for traffic.
Long layover or late flight: a hands-free plan
For a late departure, drop your bags in the morning and enjoy the city without dragging a suitcase. A few ideas:
- Near Port Authority: Times Square, Broadway theatres and Bryant Park.
- Near Penn Station: the Empire State Building, Hudson Yards and the High Line.
- Upper East Side: Museum Mile, the Met and a walk through Central Park.
Leave enough time to collect your bags and ride back via the Q70, and remember you'll clear security again. Flying from another airport? See JFK or Newark.
Tips
- Book online in minutes and pay per bag; you can cancel before drop-off if your flight changes.
- Every booking includes up to $2,500 protection per order.
- Check the listing's closing time against when you need to head back to the airport, and leave a buffer for traffic and security.
- Avoid rush-hour subway trains with big suitcases if you can; drop the bags first and explore light.
