All about luggage storage in Oslo
Scandinavia has been all the rage in recent years, but well-traveled explorers will do well to go deeper than Copenhagen and Stockholm. Oslo sits in a sadly (depending on the local you ask) underexplored corner of the region. Norway’s capital and largest city offers all the modern architecture and cutting-edge culture its neighbors provide, but with an air of discovery that the “top-10 lists” have yet to overexpose.
There’s access to nature that outdoorsy travelers can only dream of. The city itself sits at the mouth of the Oslo Fjord, and there’s a magnificent waterfront along with other coastal areas to explore. The snowy peaks of the Holmenkollen can be seen from the city, but that’s only the appetizer for the many ski resorts that lie further inland. Oslo is the perfect home base for day trippers, hikers, skiers, and trekkers, which makes popular luggage storage services like Bounce incredibly useful. Here’s everything you need to know:

Popular places for bag storage in Oslo
Bounce has a main location in Karl Johans gt. 3, 0154 Oslo, Norway and a total of 9 options in the city. These spots are near transport hubs and attractions for extra convenience.
Main transportation hubs in Oslo
The country’s busiest train station, Oslo Station has connections through the city's metro and tram network along with long-distance routes from cities in Scandinavia. It's centrally located right in the heart of Oslo near plenty of the top attractions. There aren’t reliable luggage lockers onsite, so using our Oslo luggage storage service is the best way to store the bags if you’re taking the train.
Because of the many ski resorts and outdoor recreation that draw travelers to Norway, buses are one of the most common ways to get around from Oslo. The city’s main bus terminal has connections through local, regional, coach, and long-distance routes to dozens of cities throughout Norway and plenty of the country's top travel destinations. This is particularly useful for travelers looking to take coach buses to ski resorts or fjords. If you don't need to take all your luggage with you to the ski hill, store items near the terminal before you leave.
Oslo Airport (OSL), also known as Gardermoen, is the primary international gateway to Norway, located approximately 35 kilometers northeast of Oslo city center. The airport does offer luggage storage options in the arrivals hall, but given how far the airport is from the city's attractions, it will probably make more sense to find luggage storage near Oslo Central Station or the bus terminal.
Main hotspots in Oslo
Luggage storage at the Akershus Fortress
Akershus Fortress was originally built as a medieval castle under King Haakon V and was used as a royal residence and military stronghold. The fortress grounds are open to the public year-round (free entry), featuring picturesque views of the Oslo Fjord, well-preserved historical buildings, and serene park areas. To maximize the experience here, don't carry too much. Drop your bags with Bounce before taking a relaxing walk around the fortress.
Luggage storage near the Ekebergparken Sculpture Park
While it was a controversial development when it opened, the Ekebergparken Sculpture Park is a vital facet of Oslo’s art scene and one of Europe’s bucket-list destinations for modern art. This sprawling green space (also overlooking the Oslo Fjord) started with avant-garde art installations with exhibits ranging from surreal to poignant political statements. There are also walking trails through the wooded areas of the complex - and you won't want to drag a roller bag with you!
