Will Bell Services Hold Luggage without a Stay?

It is worth mentioning it is not actually policy though.

We don’t actually know “policy.” That was Dave’s point about PlanDisney.

WDW policy is to hold bags for resort guests. Written on the site. You can call and get an answer. You can ask onsite too. They have a published answer there.

They say no such thing for guests of other resorts. One is policy; the other is not.

Reads more like a description of Bell Services. Not necessarily official policy.

But it isn’t worth arguing over — people have clearly had experience leaving items with Bell Services even if not staying overnight.

In practice it is highly unlikely to encounter an issue.

Policy vs practice:

Quote from the page you reference: Bell Services Cast Members are available to help make your check-in and check-out experiences easier by assisting with your luggage. Please note, gratuities are not included.

There is quite simply no published policy or a guideline or even a specific rule. It is easy to simply agree to disagree, and I am fine with that option.

They say no such thing for guests of other resorts. One is policy; the other is not.

So you are making an interpretation that a simple description is somehow very narrow, and somehow specific policy.

I thought the same thing because it is a simple description of how Bell Services can assist guests checking-in or checking-out.
