The difference between left luggage and luggage storage is the geographic location
Left luggage is luggage that people have left in a designated luggage storage facility. The term ‘left luggage’ is mostly used in the UK. And luggage storage is a storage facility where people leave their luggage. Luggage storage is the most common name used internationally when referring to storing luggage.
In other words, there is absolutely no difference between the two concepts. They are both defined by people’s need of storing luggage which can be collected at a later time. So whether you are looking for left luggage or luggage storage, LugaggeHero is here to take care of your belongings

Half price compared to station lockers and airport lockers
Luggage lockers, also called city lockers, are generally at least double as expensive daily compared to LuggageHero’s luggage storage service. Until recently, travelers could only stow their bags in these luggage lockers, offering little flexibility regarding pricing, where to go, and luggage deposit.
Also, LuggageHero offers stores in countless places so that you always have the option of dropping off your luggage in a safe environment. Unlike luggage lockers in stations and airports, LuggageHero offers both hourly and daily rates. LuggageHero strives to offer flexible and cheap luggage storage near you at all times.

LuggageHero in the press
-
"LuggageHero, which offers online booking with a credit card — thus, eliminating the need for users to have local currency on hand — is one of the most recent players to expand its services. In December the company began operating in New York, where today it has some 250 locations."
-
"One solution is LuggageHero, which was already on the scene in Copenhagen and London, and has now expanded into New York. Its selling point is that it lets you store your luggage in a local shop, café or hotel, which is often more convenient than having to go to a storage facility at a train station."
-
"LuggageHero, which Jannik Lawaetz founded in 2016, currently has more than 300 storage locations in six cities (New York, London, Copenhagen, Lisbon, Madrid and Barcelona) and plans to expand to 39 cities by January 2020."
-
"LuggageHero founder and chief executive Jannik Lawaetz says that the concept was inspired by that mother of invention — necessity — and Airbnb. A couple of years ago, he and his girlfriend rented an apartment in Barcelona via the home-share service. They had a later flight on their day of departure and wanted to continue exploring the city, but didn't want to lug their suitcases around. "
