Bag storage near Lincoln Park Zoo for families with kids
Recommended for: family tourists with strollers, leisure visitors, beach and zoo combo visitors.
Lincoln Park Zoo welcomes over 3 million visitors each year, and families with young children often arrive with strollers, diaper bags, and coolers in tow. The zoo does have limited lockers at the Bus Drop off area, but they fill up fast during peak seasons. That's where Bounce comes in handy. With locations scattered throughout the Lincoln Park neighborhood, visitors can drop off bulky items before heading to the zoo gates. The zoo opens at 8 a.m. daily, so early arrivals can secure bag storage and explore the 35 acre grounds without extra weight. CTA buses 151 and 156 stop right at the West Gate, making it easy to travel light from nearby Bounce spots. Prices start from $4.25, which is a small price for a full day of hands free animal watching with the little ones.
Left luggage options for international visitors heading to Lincoln Park Zoo
Recommended for: international tourists, hotel gap travelers, transit users on cta.
For travelers arriving from overseas, hauling suitcases on the CTA Red Line or Brown Line to see the gorillas at Regenstein Center isn't exactly ideal. The zoo sits about 2 miles north of the Loop, accessible via Armitage or Fullerton stations, but those trains get crowded. Bounce offers left luggage services throughout Chicago, with spots near major transit corridors that connect to the zoo. The zoo is free to enter and open 365 days a year, so there's no rush. Drop your bags, take the 156 bus straight to the West Gate, and spend a few hours watching the seals at Kovler Seal Pool. Each booking includes $10,000 protection for peace of mind.
Luggage lockers near Fullerton and Armitage stations for zoo visitors
Recommended for: cta rail linked visitors, day trippers from union station, weekenders checking out of hotels.
The zoo officially recommends arriving via the Brown and Purple Line at Armitage or the Red Line at Fullerton. Both stations are a short bus ride or walk to the zoo gates. Problem is, neither station has public luggage lockers anymore. Bounce fills that gap with partner locations in the surrounding neighborhoods, including spots near DePaul and along the Clark Street corridor. Visitors coming from Union Station for a day trip can store roller bags before hopping on the Red Line north. The walk from Fullerton station to the zoo takes about 15 minutes, or you can catch the 151 bus. Either way, traveling without luggage makes the whole trip smoother. Bounce has earned a 4.9 rating from users who appreciate the convenience of booking storage on their phones while in transit.
