Where to leave my luggage in Paris? Best way to keep your luggage in safe areas

You are searching for tips and answers about those questions: “Where to leave your luggage in Paris?” or “Where to leave my luggage in Paris”? We have done our best to give you all the details about different ways to leave, store your baggage in Paris (lockers, left-luggage service, luggage concierge service…).

“Classic” luggage storage or Lockers in Paris

 

It is where usually people think to store their bags while travelling. So where to leave your luggage in Paris? Available in most of Parisian train stations (excepted in Bercy and Austertliz train stations) and in Paris Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport (There is any lockers in Paris-Orly Airport. Other services are available to keep your belongings into safe areas), the lockers are one of the way to leave your bags for a few hours.

Luggage lockers are secure places where you can leave your baggage for a few hours or a few days (with a maximum of 3 days in a row). There are different sizes of lockers to keep your bags. Prices depend on luggage size and storage time. This type of storage can be useful for a few hours if you don’t want to carry your baggage but it isn’t convenient and often expensive if you have more than 1 piece of luggage and there is no insurance because you are responsive of the belongings you store into lockers.

Keep in mind that the lockers are sometime closed for maintenance or because of a strike of the employees (you are travelling in France 😊). Moreover, it is sometime full during peak times, such as spring/summer breaks and holiday periods, so you need to contact the company (Itirémia) that manages the lockers in train station to be up to date before leaving your bags.
