Owners Locker - What do you put in yours?
Morning!
Just looking into Owner's Locker - and wondered if those of you who have one, could let me know if you find it really useful and what you manage to fit into it. Give me ideas of all the things you can put in there, to make your Disney (or other off-site Orlando trip) more streamlined. Thank you!

Hi Ceri, we do find ours really useful, in it we have...
Kettle Electric toothbrush USB plugs Flip flops Trainers Toiletries Sunscreen Coffee filters Sugar sachets Wine glasses 2 each of plates, bowls, cutlery, mugs for if we stay in a studio. Cotton buds Analgesia / antihistamines Clothes washing tablets PG tips - big box! I keep debating buying some straighteners next time we're out to leave in there, now that we're not tied to school holidays humidity!

Ooo great list - thank you!
Yes, if staying in a studio, it would be great to have the crockery items instead of paper. 👍 Sometimes I buy big jars of things like powdered coffee whitener/creamer and struggle to bring them home - are you able to leave things like that in them? Shampoos and things like that sound good items too - as sometimes we don’t take them with us and buy them out there, but there’s always tonnes left!

Crockery was a great tip from Caron. Yes you can leave coffee mate etc. in them, if we're going to be out again soon then we leave coffee in ours, there's usually a bottle of red wine in there as well.
We were the same, I'd buy all the shampoo etc. with my grocery order, then end up either throwing loads away or bringing it home! We now travel with just a very small suitcase each - the type you could take as hand luggage, although we check them in.

We have two owners lockers. I pack a 'wet' one with all toiletries, and other liquids and a 'dry' one with camera, electrical and clothes etc just in case. In ten years of having lockers we've never had any problems at all with them. John regularly posts pictures of the warehouse - it's spotless inside.
Yeah, stuff that that is fine, just make sure the jars are sealed properly. We leave all the things already mentioned plus hairdryer, straighteners, unopened wine, bottle of bourbon, all toiletries, bits of makeup, couple of pairs of shoes/shorts etc, a multi usb charger plus half a dozen extra long lightning cables, powerbanks etc.

Thank you for your replies - some great ideas and so definitely sounds like a good idea to own one if visiting yearly at least.

This is the Company. It's owned by John who was a DVC Guide when they first opened OKW. He eventually left Disney and founded Owners Locker.

we pay around £8 a month, but had 6 months free and then 6 months 1/2 price I think was the offer when we joined.
