About the Metropolitan Museum of Art

What is a great city without a great art collection? New York is represented by the sprawling Metropolitan Museum of Art, one of the world's great art museums that showcases art from around the world. Visiting this museum is like taking a crash course in almost every civilization in history, and it's a must-do for any art lover in the Big Apple. Even if you're not that big of an art fan, the collection here is so extensive and so varied that you're bound to find something you like.

What you won't find, though, is storage for large bags. The Met allows small backpacks inside, but you have to carry them in your hand or on the front of your body for damage and security reasons. Anything bigger than that, including a carry-on or regular suitcase, will not be allowed inside. There are no large luggage lockers here, so you'll want to find a place to leave your bags before visiting.

Luckily, Bounce can help. We partner with local businesses to provide Metropolitan Museum of Art luggage storage for any size of bags. Let our luggage storage work for you as you explore this incredible collection.

How does the luggage storage process work near the Metropolitan Museum of Art?

  • Effortless booking: Using the Bounce app, you can quickly find and confirm a storage spot near the museum. Whether you're the kind of person who likes to plan well in advance or you just need to book luggage storage on the spot, it's easy with our app.
  • Secure transactions: Payments are securely handled through the app, so there's never a need for cash or coins.

We can also store everything from a small bag to the biggest suitcases.
  • Guaranteed availability: Booking in advance ensures your storage spot is reserved, so you don’t arrive to find all lockers already in use. Our app makes it a breeze to find luggage storage and book Metropolitan Museum of Art luggage storage before you visit, whether you need it for a few hours, an entire day, or longer.
