Yes, Berlin Brandenburg Airport has a staffed luggage storage office: it sits in Terminal 1 on level U1 (the train station level), it is run by Sasse Aviation Service, and it charges per item per day based on bag size. If you only remember one thing, remember this: go down to U1 in Terminal 1, before security, and look for the baggage storage counter next to the Service Centre.

This guide covers the exact location, prices, rules, and the cheaper alternatives in the city, plus what to do with your free hands once the suitcase is gone.

Where the storage office is

The baggage storage is in Terminal 1, level U1, in the public area by the airport train station. You do not need a boarding pass to use it: the counter is before security, so both departing passengers and visitors can store bags there.

Level U1 is two floors below check-in level E0. Take the lifts or escalators down toward the train platforms; the storage desk shares space with the airport Service Centre, which also sells FlixBus tickets and packing materials such as wrap and luggage straps.

Hours and contact

The counter works daily, with typical opening hours from early morning to late evening (around 06:00 to 22:00). The airport runs a 24/7 hotline for baggage storage and lost property: +49 30 6091 6091 0. Call ahead if you plan a very early or very late pickup.

The same Sasse office handles lost and found, so if your question is about a bag that an airline lost, this is also the right desk.

Prices and rules

You pay per item per day, and the rate depends on size: small items cost about 7 euro per day and large suitcases about 10 euro per day. The exact figures are set by the operator price list at the counter, so treat these numbers as a guide and check the posted rates before you hand over the bag.

Standard storage rules apply: no dangerous goods (loose lithium batteries, fuel, aerosols), keep valuables and documents with you, and bring an ID. Staff may ask you to open the bag for a quick check.

Cheaper alternatives in the city

If you want to store bags for several days, city storage networks are often cheaper than the airport counter. Services such as Nannybag, Radical Storage, and similar apps list partner shops and hotels in Berlin from about 3 to 5 euro per bag per day, including locations near the central station.

The trade-off is time: you carry the bag into the city first. For a short layover the airport counter wins; for a multi-day stash before a late flight, a city location near your route usually costs less. If you would rather sleep next to your suitcase, see our guide to hotels at and near BER.

What to do with free hands

Berlin rewards a luggage-free traveler. The FEX and regional trains reach the city centre in about 30 minutes, and our guide to day trips from Berlin covers Potsdam and other easy escapes if you have most of a day. If your wait is shorter, see our layover guide for BER, the lounge overview, and the guide to sleeping options at the airport.

Storing one suitcase costs less than dragging it through a museum, and the lockers at major Berlin train stations fill up fast in summer, so the airport counter is a reliable plan B in both directions.
