Luggage storage at Brig or Zermatt stations
A traveler is heading to Switzerland in 10 days and traveling from Milan to Brig by train. They are concerned about storing their two large suitcases, unsure if the lockers at Brig will be spacious enough, and also ask about locker availability at Zermatt Station. They prefer not to check into their BnB before heading to Matterhorn to save time.
- The lockers at Brig come in two sizes: small (24.8 x 42 x 75 cm) and large (44.7 x 61.5 x 88 cm), while Zermatt has an even larger option (54 x 95 x 76 cm) for storage.
- Consider using the SBB luggage service for additional convenience.
- Lockers at Zermatt are automatic, so it's recommended to arrive early to secure a spot, as reservations may not be available.
- If no lockers are free, there's a left-luggage office at Zermatt where you can store your bags.

Hey Everyone,
I am new to this forum and I read a few posts before signing up to become a member.
I am going to Switzerland in 10 days time and travelling from Milan to Brig by train.I have seen on SBB website that there are luggage lockers at Brig. However wasn’t sure if those lockers are big enough to accommodate large bags. I am an international traveller carrying 2 suitcases with me.
If those lockers aren’t big enough, can someone advise how I can work around this problem. I don’t want to waste time in checking into BnB I have booked in Brig before going to Matterhorn.
Are there big lockers at Zermatt Station?

Hi Wittyenggs and welcome to MySwissAlps,
there are lockers at both of the stations (Brig and Zermatt). How big are your bags?
In Brig there are 2 types of lockers: small (24.8 x 42 x 75 cm) and large (44.7 x 61.5 x 88 cm). In Zermatt there are more types, the sames as Brig plus even a bigger: 54 x 95 x 76 cm.

Hi Ildiko,
Thanks for a quick reply. I would actually prefer to store it in Zermatt itself. Would I be able to pre-book these lockers online. Also is 54 * 95* 76 width * height * length?
The dimensions are W x H x D: 54 x 95 x 76. You can see all the details at http://www.sbb.ch/en/station-services/railway-stations/further-stations/station.1689.zermatt.html.
I do not think you can reserve any of the lockers as far as I remember they were automatic lockers in Zermatt.

Thanks for that, if I can’t pre-book, is there a risk of not getting an empty locker by the time I reach?
There is also a left-luggage office at Zermatt so if there are no vacant lockers you can leave your stuff there.
