About Chicago Union Station

When Chicago Union Station was first opened in 1925, the Windy City was very much on the rise - literally. Much like today, Chicago back then was a bustling city of industry and commerce, with some of the world's first skyscrapers defining the skyline of this optimistic place. And although train travel isn't as popular now as it was 100 years ago, Chicago Union Station and nearby Chicago Greyhound Bus Terminal are responsible for bringing millions of visitors to the city every year.

Thanks to Union Station's central location, it's tempting to start exploring the city right away. And while it can be tough to find traditional luggage lockers these days, Bounce provides a Chicago Union Station luggage storage service that makes travel easier than ever. Download our baggage storage app and find a location near you, like the main spot at 205 South Peoria Street, then take advantage of our services without relying on the limited Chicago Union Station lockers that are available.

How to pay for luggage storage at Chicago Union Station

  • Simple booking process: Using the Bounce app, you can easily find and book your Union Station bag storage for a flat fee. Our user-friendly process means you can quickly arrange your luggage storage whether you’re already at the station or planning ahead from home.
  • Make a secure payment: Once you've found the ideal Chicago Union Station luggage storage for your needs, proceed to the payment section in the app. It's a hassle-free experience and eliminates the need for cash or coins (like many train station lockers require).
  • The space is yours: Booking in advance will guarantee storage space at the luggage storage facility. There's no need to wander around looking for any available Chicago Union Station lockers.

How luggage storage is different from train station lockers

  • Item sizes: Using luggage storage services like Bounce means you can store just about any size of item - from golf clubs to surfboards. Size isn't an issue, unlike traditional Chicago Union Station lockers where space is at a premium.
  • Store bags safely: We only use staffed storage spots, so you have a real person taking care of every item. With lockers, you tend to find them in busier public areas and they rarely have a dedicated attendant.
  • Local business partners: Our network is made up of local businesses, which are our luggage storage Chicago Union Station partners. The staff at these locations have the inside scoop on the Windy City, but of course, they'll also store luggage for you. Expect the average location to have opening hours between 9 AM and 8 PM, but extended hours are always possible with some partners open 24/7.
