Check Coin Lockers Availability Online in Real Time

Many travelers may encounter a situation where they want to leave the heavy luggage in train stations. Sometimes this can be frustrating since it takes time to find one and thus makes you tired. If you could easily find large coin lockers, it would definitely make people very happy.

I remember that my friend and I arrived at Namba Station in Osaka early in the morning by night bus and tried for nearly half an hour to find an available large coin locker for our big size suitcases. It was very tiring.

Then I found this website where you can check the availability of coin lockers in real time. This website is available in English and you can check for details like availability of large coin lockers for large suitcases. Although this function is only available for several main stations so far as below, we hope this may be useful for you.

However, whether the lockers at those locations are full or not will need to be checked in person.
