About the Natural History Museum

The Natural History Museum, also known as the American Museum of Natural History, is located on Central Park West in Theodore Roosevelt Park in New York City. Established in 1869, this fascinating museum has since worked toward its global mission goal of digging up, extrapolating, and sharing information to the public in a fun and engaging way. 

Interested in giant dinosaurs and their story while on Earth? How about viewing a volcanic eruption on a 3D screen? The beauty of butterflies and the history of the horse are some of the other past and present exhibits of this incredible museum, and there’s a variety of topics covered in their exciting displays.

Whether a local of New York City or a tourist fitting in the sites of The Big Apple, making a full itinerary won't be difficult. It's Manhattan, after all, and you'll want to include nearby spectacular sights like Central Park, Belvedere Castle, and Bethesda Fountain. Wherever you go, don't let the burden of your bags put a damper on your experience. Use the Bounce app to find baggage storage near the museum and stow your stuff. Adventures await!

Bag policy Natural History Museum

For the security of its exhibitions and to save space, the Natural History Museum staff asks visitors to store luggage, large bags, oversized backpacks, suitcases, and other belongings while they explore the collections. Their safety measures don’t permit items larger than 11” x 17” in size, although strollers are allowed. Service animals are permitted inside the museum as well.

If you’re carrying any large belongings, be sure to store them before walking through the entrance. You’ll easily find a Bounce storage location in a local shop, hotel, or other business near tourist attractions such as the Smithsonian National Museum and transit hubs like the Port Authority Bus Terminal.

Does the Natural History Museum have luggage storage?

According to the current up to date information on their website, the museum’s cloakroom is unavailable. This means you’ll need to find another location for storing luggage before visiting. Our luggage storage services are your best choice, and we have multiple locations in the city. We’re happy to offer affordable storage options with prices that don’t change no matter the size or weight of your items, so you can leave everything from small carry-ons to huge suitcases in our care.

Are there lockers at the Museum of Natural History NYC?

It doesn’t seem like this museum has any luggage storage options aside from its cloakroom, so don’t expect to see any storage lockers on site. When the cloakroom is available, it’s important to note that there are few spaces for big bags, especially when the museum is busy. You may not be able to leave your things in the museum.

Simply download the Bounce app on your mobile phone to access baggage storage wherever you are. Once you choose a location nearby, you can complete your booking in advance, making drop off and pick up simple and quick. If your plans change you can easily cancel your booking for free, as long as you cancel before the chosen time.

You can easily spend the entire day in the Natural History Museum exploring everything on the museum map, from learning about human origins to seeing a Hayden Planetarium space show. However, the thrills in NYC move beyond this museum. Check out the neighborhood, and include other museums and places like the Ladies Pavillion in Central Park. You can also tour the Statue of Liberty or head to the Ramble, a 38-acre site of man-made and natural trails and features.

New York City is exceptionally crowded on any given day or time, and carrying baggage around is cumbersome and unnecessary. Locate an accessible Bounce partner in the local shops and businesses near the Natural History Museum, and keep your bags stored away until later.
