FAQ
SFO airport luggage storage — what happened?+
SFO closed its official baggage storage facility in 2020 (a casualty of the pandemic + security review). There is no airport storage currently. Landside alternatives: take BART to Millbrae or Daly City and use Radical Storage drops at hotels near the BART stations ($6/day). For long layovers: BART 25-30 min to Embarcadero + store in Union Square / Wharf area.
Alcatraz tour luggage?+
Alcatraz Cruises (Pier 33) doesn't allow large luggage on the ferry — only small day-bags. For luggage drop: Radical Storage points on Beach Street or Jefferson Street ($6/day) — typically 5-min walk from Pier 33. Drop bags, take the boat (2.5 hour tour), retrieve before evening.
Union Square hotel storage for non-guests?+
Most Union Square hotels (Westin, Marriott, Hyatt) hold bags free for current guests only. Some boutique hotels (Hotel Zelos, Hotel Adagio) offer paid concierge storage to non-guests for $10-20/day. Cheaper + more flexible: Radical Storage drops across Union Square at $6/day.
Wine country day-trip luggage?+
Most Napa + Sonoma wine tours leave from Union Square or Embarcadero (06:30-08:00 departure). Tour operators don't carry overnight luggage — store at your hotel if checking in same day, or at Radical Storage near pickup point ($6/day). Tip: pre-book the bag drop the night before to avoid morning rush.
