Left luggage facility

    The railway station in Cork no longer has a left-luggage section, for some reason. Is there left-luggage anywhere else? I'm due to do a trip to Cork with a couple of side spurs and need to leave stuff in the city during the side trips.

    The bus station used to do left luggage too though it's been a while since I've needed to use it

    Try the hostel near the bus station.I think someone mentioned before about dropping gear off there.

    I am not sure if this is there anymore. It is certainly not where it used to be.I would suggest that you ring and check before you go.

    There's a sort of printing/copying place near the bus station that also does left luggage, across from the end of Oliver Plunkett St.

    Hmm. Maybe I'll reconsider the structure of this journey. I don't want to be wandering the streets of a strange city looking for somewhere to leave stuff/collect stuff. Odd that they don't just have a room for it in the station, like in Galway, where it's €2.50 a day and efficient.

    The paddywagon tours place on Washington street have a sign up for a left luggage service.

    Thanks, Pitcairn. It's apparently a 23-minute walk from the station, though (Google Maps).

    More like 10 mins from railway station, unless you're a pensioner.

    Bridge Street you mean.

    They have offices at both Bridge Street and Washington Street. I don't know if Bridge Street has a left luggage facility though.

    I am that.

    As I said I am not certain if they have or have not. It would be worth your while giving them a ring before you reconsider the structure of your journey.

    There are no left luggage facilities in the bus station.
