Do you have to pay for lockers at Universal Studios?

Single-Time Use Lockers at Attractions Single-time use lockers are available at the attractions listed below. Standard-sized lockers (14 in x 5.5 in x 16.9 in): for small loose articles are free while you ride. Larger lockers (12 in x 13 in x 16.9 in) for oversized items can be rented for an additional fee.



At Universal Studios (both Hollywood and Orlando), whether you pay for a locker depends on the ride and the size of your bag. For high-intensity "thrill" rides that prohibit all loose items—such as VelociCoaster, The Incredible Hulk Coaster, and Revenge of the Mummy—Universal provides complimentary standard-sized lockers for the duration of your wait and ride time. These lockers are operated by scanning your park ticket. However, if your bag is too large for the standard locker (roughly 14" x 5.5" x 16.9"), you must pay for a Large Locker, which typically costs $2 per use. For general all-day storage of items like jackets or souvenirs that you don't want to carry around the park, there are "All-Day" lockers located near the park entrance that range from $10 to $15 per day with unlimited re-entry. In 2026, many savvy guests avoid these fees by carrying a small "squishable" backpack that fits into the free lockers. Just remember that for the most intense rides like VelociCoaster, you must use a locker, as you will pass through a metal detector before boarding and even cell phones are not permitted in your pockets.

From blockbuster, thrill rides to shows that light up the night, there's something for everyone, and I would recommend going. Just make sure to do some research and plan your trip, especially if it's as packed as it was for us!

I have a cross body, satchel type purse that's small that I want to bring but I don't want to purchase a locker to ride.” Wear a fanny pack or use a VERY secure pocket that zips closed. The coasters are intense. A cross body bag would make it very difficult to secure the harnesses on the rides.

MORE DETAILS

For most of the rides, you'll likely be able to just leave the bag around your waist, but for the ones that have a lap bar or over the shoulder harness that would make that uncomfortable, you'll be able to either keep your bag in a small storage area or just down at your feet.
