What is Bottle Locker?
Bottle Locker is a modern wine storage concept in Amsterdam for collectors, investors, restaurants, importers and wine lovers who value proper storage. We keep wine and whisky at a constant temperature between twelve and sixteen degrees, with regulated humidity, in the dark and free of vibration.
Why should I store my wine at Bottle Locker?
Homes in the city rarely offer the conditions wine needs. Temperatures fluctuate, light and vibration take their toll, and space is limited. With us, every bottle rests in a stable environment and is registered individually, so your collection stays in condition and in order.
How is my wine stored?
In a climate controlled cellar held between twelve and sixteen degrees Celsius, with regulated humidity, no daylight and no vibration. The site is fully enclosed and locked, with camera surveillance and access limited to authorised personnel.
Do you keep track of what I have stored?
Yes. Every bottle is registered individually, with the wine, the vintage, the format and the date it arrived, and we record where it sits. You receive a full overview of your collection whenever you ask for it.
How do I deliver my bottles?
You can bring them to us in De Pijp, Amsterdam, by appointment, or have them delivered by a courier arranged with us in advance. Ask the sender to mark your name clearly on the outside of the box and let us know what is on its way.
How do I get my bottles back?
Retrieval is by appointment. Tell us which bottles you would like and when, and we prepare them for collection in De Pijp.
What does storage cost?
Storage is quoted individually, based on the space your collection takes in the cellar. Tell us roughly how many bottles or cases you have in mind and we come back to you with a price within one business day.
What is the minimum term?
The minimum term is three months. After that, storage renews automatically per quarter and can be cancelled per quarter with one week of notice.
Do you store bottles in larger formats?
Yes. Larger formats are welcome, and for storage a magnum counts as two bottles. Please mention anything larger than a magnum when you get in touch so we can set aside the right space.
Do you store whisky as well as wine?
Yes. The same conditions suit both, and we store wine and whisky for private collectors, investors, restaurants and importers.
Do you store wines for both private individuals and businesses?
Yes. We serve private collectors, investors, restaurants, and importers looking for professional storage.
Can I also store other products next to wine bottles?
