Airbnb for bags: Where does the traveler leave his luggage for a few hours
You have just landed at your destination, but you still have to wait several hours before moving into an apartment rented on Airbnb. What to do? You can go exploring the city, but with heavy luggage it's hard to do, writes Lifehacker.
You can leave your luggage in the luggage at the airport or train station, but there are other, sometimes cheaper options. You can use the storage cameras that are in restaurants, markets, dry cleaners or salons. And there are the same services as Airbnb, but only for bags. You book the time and place via the Internet, leave your luggage and then pick it up at the right time. Some of these sites provide insurance against damage, theft or loss. Below are some of these options:

These services will be useful not only for travelers, but also for locals who may need to leave somewhere a backpack or bag. We emphasize that insurance plans that offer services may not cover the cost of all things that are in the bag, so be sure to carefully read the terms of the insurance offer. Luggage is not recommended to leave jewelry, money or fragile items.
