Welcome to planDisney, Vapsi! How exciting that your visit to the Disneyland Resort is just around the corner! I completely understand the feeling of wanting to dive right into the magic. Let’s talk about how you can get your vacation started as soon as you arrive.
Locker rentals are available in the Esplanade, the area between
Disneyland and
Disney California Adventure, as well as inside both theme parks. There are two locker stations in the Esplanade: one located to the left of the Disneyland entrance, and another to the left of the Disney California Adventure entrance. These Esplanade lockers come in five sizes: Small (9.5” wide x 11” tall x 18” deep); Medium (12.5” wide x 17” tall x 18” deep); Large (15” wide x 16.6” tall x 22.6” deep); Extra-large (15” wide x 23” tall x 22.6” deep); and Jumbo (18” wide x 25” high x 37” deep)
Locker prices vary by size and, according to the
Disneyland website, currently range from $7 to $15 per day. (Inside the parks, lockers are located on Main Street, U.S.A. and Buena Vista Street, but those locations only offer small and medium sizes.)
The Esplanade locker stations are accessible during regular park hours, but please note that overnight storage is not allowed. Since you’ll need to pass through security first, you can use one of three checkpoints: Downtown Disney, Harbor Boulevard, or the entrance through Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel. Security may ask to inspect your luggage or carry-on items, so it’s a good idea to have those easily accessible.
And here’s a helpful Q-Tip, Vapsi: Guests of the
Disneyland Resort Hotels can take advantage of complimentary luggage storage at the bell desk. If you're staying at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel, the Disneyland Hotel, or Pixar Place Hotel, consider dropping off your bags there before heading into the parks. It’s a convenient option, especially if your room isn’t quite ready when you arrive.
I hope this information helps make your arrival a little more magical. If you have any more questions, feel free to stop by planDisney again anytime.
Have a fantastic vacation!
