How Much Are Luggage Lockers In Paris?

The direct, honest price of a luggage locker in Paris is €5.89 for one standard bag stored for one full day with Luggage Storage in Paris, or between €5.50 and €9.50 for a locker at a major SNCF station. That €5.89 figure includes the €3.90 per-bag day rate and the €1.99 checkout fee added by Radical Storage, the booking network used by every storage point this site recommends. Most price-comparison pages quote €3.90 alone, which understates a one-day bill by roughly a third. The official SNCF lockers rent for a fixed twenty-four hours at three size-based rates, with no extra fee per bag, but they sell out, their payment systems vary by station, and two large Paris stations have no in-station locker at all. For a detailed walk-through of every Paris station that does offer a locker, see our full station-by-station locker guide.

How Much Are Luggage Lockers In Paris?

In Paris, luggage storage generally costs between €5.50 and €15 per bag for the first 24 hours, depending on the provider and locker size. A typical one-bag one-day storage through Radical Storage runs €5.89 total, while official SNCF station lockers charge €5.50, €7.50, or €9.50; airport left-luggage starts around €10 per day, and Disneyland Paris charges up to €15 for a large item.

These numbers are all drawn from live listings and the operators' own sites, on the day this article was researched. The most important figure to get right is the network rate, because every booking flows through Radical Storage, and its advertised "from €1.90 per day" is not the price you will pay at any Paris storage point except a few in the Bercy cluster. The real rate across 316 of the 329 location cards checked on the Paris area pages is €3.90, and every booking adds the €1.99 fee at checkout. That is why the true one-day price is €5.89, not €3.90. If you want to compare every storage price in the city side by side, the detailed guide to Paris storage costs has the full picture.

The rest of the city's storage pricing is simpler: official station lockers are a flat rate per locker size, the airport desks charge by bag size and duration, and Disneyland's Guest Storage has its own per-item menu. What matters for your wallet is which of those options is actually available at the place you will be.

What Is The Real Daily Cost Of Luggage Storage With Radical Storage In Paris?

Across Paris, the real per-bag day rate is €3.90, not the widely marketed €1.90. A checkout fee of €1.99 is added once per bag, bringing a single-bag single-day total to €5.89. Two bags for one day cost €9.79; one bag for three days costs €13.69. The network publishes no hourly tariff, and all prices are flat-rate per bag per day with no size or weight surcharge.

The €1.90 headline appears on only 10 of the 329 Paris location cards, all in the Bercy area. Every other point shows €3.90, including the popular stops at Gare du Nord, Gare de Lyon, Montparnasse, Saint-Lazare and the Eiffel Tower area. The €1.99 checkout fee is hidden until you reach the payment screen. It is a per-bag charge, so two bags add €3.98 to the total, while the nightly rate stays €3.90 per bag. A three-day deposit of one large suitcase works out as (3 × €3.90) + €1.99 = €13.69, which often undercuts the official station locker once you pass the first twenty-four hours.

Cancellation is free at any time before the scheduled drop-off, and the booking includes the Radical Storage guarantee, which is capped at €3,000 per claim in the terms, not the €10,000 marketing badge. The guarantee is explicitly not insurance, and the small print requires you to report loss within seven days and to supply a signed itemised list of the bag's contents. For anyone travelling with a laptop, camera or jewellery, that is the single most important practical tip: photograph and list everything before you hand the bag over. The same terms also set a forty-eight-hour deadline from discovery for filing a police report if the bag is stolen, and any claim excludes items not packed reasonably safely or not individually listed with an estimated value.

The network does not own lockers. Its Paris points are shops, hotels and cafés that place your bag in a staffed room or behind a counter. That means your bag is under supervision during opening hours, and every point lists its real hours. At Gare du Nord Grandes Lignes the hours are 08:30 to 20:00; at Montparnasse they run 07:00 to midnight; at Saint-Lazare 08:30 to 23:59. The "24/7" text that appears in many page titles is a template string, not a promise. A late-evening arrival needs to pick a point with a midnight close, not a shop that shuts at 20:00. If you are travelling through Gare du Nord specifically, leaving a bag at Gare du Nord covers every option at that station.

If your stop is near the Palais des Congrès or you are heading to La Défense, the Porte Maillot storage point is a practical choice that costs the same €3.90 plus the fee. Its single published point near the station is open from 08:30.

How Much Do Official SNCF Luggage Lockers Cost At Paris Stations?

Official SNCF station lockers charge a fixed 24-hour rate per locker size: €5.50 for a small locker, €7.50 for a medium locker and €9.50 for a large locker. After the first twenty-four hours an extra €5 per bag is added per extra day. Payment methods vary by station: some are cash-only, some card-only, and one is currently switching. Gare Saint-Lazare and Paris Bercy have no in-station locker at all.

Five central Paris stations offer an official consigne. The lockers are automated, and the interior dimensions are published and identical at Gare de Lyon, Gare de l'Est and Gare d'Austerlitz: a small locker measures 433 × 347 × 824 mm, a medium 591 × 347 × 824 mm and a large 908 × 519 × 824 mm. A standard carry-on suitcase fits the medium locker; a full-size checked bag needs the large one. Gare Montparnasse sells only two sizes at the same small and large price points, and the payment is by bank card only. Gare du Nord runs a staffed conciergerie with duration pricing of €4 for up to four hours, €7.50 for four to twelve hours and €9.50 for twelve to twenty-four hours, so it is cheaper for very short stops.

The payment split trips up many travellers. Gare de l'Est lockers accept coins only, with no change machine inside the locker room. Gare de Lyon and Austerlitz are cash-only, though Gare de Lyon is replacing its coin-operated lockers with card-only machines during September 2026, as announced on the station's own page. Until the work is finished, the room may contain a mix of old and new units, so bring coins and a card if you plan to use that station. The same station page also showed a live "Ferme" status badge when checked, which is a real-time widget rather than a closure notice, but it underlines the point: an official locker is never guaranteed to be available when you arrive. Montparnasse is already card-only. Gare du Nord's staffed counter takes both.

SNCF itself warns that its lockers are frequently full. The Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est pages state bluntly that the lockers are a great success, are sometimes completely booked and may be closed for works. That is the operator's own wording, not a third-party guess. If you arrive mid-morning and find every locker taken, the only fallback is a booking network.

Saint-Lazare and Bercy have no in-station consigne of any kind. SNCF lists both stations among the sites that will be served by an off-site partner under a tender published in June 2026, with a planned start date of 30 September 2026, but no winner had been announced when this article was written. For now, and probably for the coming months, the only way to leave a bag near either station is to book a Radical Storage point a short walk away. At Saint-Lazare, the nearest points are open 08:30 to 23:59, and you can reserve a spot before you arrive.

What Do Airport And Disneyland Luggage Storage Cost In Paris?

Paris airport left-luggage starts from €10 per day for a carry-on bag and reaches €20 per day for a large suitcase, while Disneyland Paris Guest Storage charges €5 for small items, €11 for small bags and €15 for large items, per item per day. The airport service publishes an indicative price list only, and Disneyland does not allow advance booking.

Bagages du Monde, the operator that runs the desks at Charles de Gaulle and Orly, publishes indicative rates on its terms page: €10 per day for cabin-size luggage, €15 per day for a medium bag between 56 cm and 75 cm, and €20 per day for anything over 75 cm. An hourly rate also exists, from €3 per hour, and a minimum deposit of two hours applies. These are labelled "indicative," meaning the detailed and updated rates live on a website that was not accessible when we checked, so the figures cannot be quoted as an observed checkout. The desk takes Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay and Google Pay, and requires a national ID card or passport before accepting a bag. A driving licence is not accepted.

The CDG desk is open 07:00 to 21:00 seven days a week, with a location described inconsistently by the airport operator and the storage company: one says Terminal 2, level 0, the other says Terminal 2, level 4 opposite the Sheraton at the CDGVAL arrival point. At Orly the desk is in Terminal 3 arrivals, near the Metro line 14 exit. Radical Storage has no storage point at either airport, so a network booking on this site is not an airport drop.

At Disneyland Paris, the official Guest Storage is located to the right of the entrance to Disneyland Park. It charges €5 for accessories, €11 for a small item and €15 for a large item, per day. Cash and card are accepted, and the facility opens every day at 08:00 and closes forty-five minutes after the park closes. You cannot reserve a spot, and Disneyland bans any bag over 55 cm × 40 cm × 25 cm, including wheels and handles, from both parks. That size limit catches most carry-on suitcases and all checked bags, which is why many day-trippers store something before they reach the turnstiles.

There is, however, an official SNCF consigne at Marne-la-Vallée Chessy station, the TGV and RER station that serves the park. The lockers sit on level +1 next to the West tunnel, open 07:00 to 22:00 every day, and charge the standard station rates of €5.50, €7.50 or €9.50 per locker for the first twenty-four hours, bank card only. That is less than half the cost of a large-item storage inside the park, and the station is a short covered walk from the entrances. The lockers cannot be booked either, but they are a genuine alternative that many day-trippers miss, because most competitor guides do not mention the Chessy station consigne at all. Disneyland publishes its own prices, and the SNCF locker at Chessy is listed on the station's services page.

What Is The Cheapest Luggage Storage Option In Paris?

For a stop of four hours or less, the cheapest option is the staffed consigne at Gare du Nord at €4. For a full day, a Radical Storage booking at €5.89 is the cheapest reliable option, because station lockers start at €5.50 but are often full and some stations have no locker at all. The cheapest per-hour product is the airport's indicative €3 per hour, but only at CDG or Orly, and only for a cabin bag.

The honest answer depends on the station you are at and how long you need. At Gare du Nord, the official counter is cheaper for a short drop but closes at 23:15. At Gare Montparnasse, the card-only lockers are slightly cheaper than a network booking for the first day, but they require you to collect the bag by 22:00. At Gare de l'Est, the coins-only limitation can make the lockers unusable if you arrive with only notes or cards. At Saint-Lazare and Bercy, the question is moot because there is no locker at all; a network point is the only choice.

Beyond the cash-register arithmetic, two practical differences matter for value. The Radical Storage booking lets you cancel free until the last minute, includes a guarantee with published claim rules, and you know before you leave your hotel that a spot is held for your bag. The station locker is cheaper only if a locker of the right size is actually free and you have the right payment method in your pocket. SNCF's own page says that a locker may be unavailable or the room closed for works; if that happens at Gare de Lyon on a busy morning, you will be walking to a network point anyway, and the time you lose is part of the cost.

The one new price factor worth noting is that SNCF's lockers are not going away; Gare de Lyon is upgrading to card-only machines during September 2026, and the off-site partner scheme at Saint-Lazare and Bercy is scheduled to begin on 30 September 2026, which could change the picture later in the autumn. Until then, the cheapest realistic price for a stress-free all-day drop at a busy Paris station remains €5.89 per bag with a booked point, and that price is the same whether you store at Gare du Nord, Montparnasse or a side street near the Eiffel Tower.

Common Questions About Luggage Locker Costs In Paris

What Is The Real Daily Rate For Luggage Storage In Paris?

The real daily rate with the Radical Storage network is €3.90 per bag, plus a €1.99 per-bag checkout fee, so one bag for one day costs €5.89. Official SNCF station lockers cost €5.50, €7.50 or €9.50 for the first twenty-four hours, then €5 per extra day. The airport left-luggage charges €10 to €20 per day depending on bag size, and Disneyland Paris charges €5 to €15 per item.

Is There A Cheaper Way To Store Luggage For A Few Hours?

For a stop under four hours, the Gare du Nord staffed consigne charges €4. The airport desks have an hourly rate from €3 per hour, with a two-hour minimum, but you must be at CDG or Orly. No other Paris storage operator publishes an hourly tariff; the booking networks charge a flat daily rate even for a one-hour stop.

Why Do Most Websites Quote A Lower Price Than The One You Give?

Many sites quote Radical Storage's global headline "from €1.90 per day," or the unqualified €3.90 per-bag rate, ignoring the €1.99 checkout fee. The €1.90 rate appears on only 10 of 329 Paris location cards, all in the Bercy cluster. Every other Paris point charges €3.90 plus the fee, making the real one-bag total €5.89.

Are The Official Station Lockers Cheaper Than A Booking Network?

For the first twenty-four hours, the small locker at €5.50 is cheaper than a network booking at €5.89. From the second day onward, the network often becomes cheaper because the station lockers add €5 per bag per extra day. However, the station lockers sell out, have restrictive payment methods, and do not exist at Saint-Lazare or Bercy.

How Much Does It Cost To Store A Large Suitcase For Three Days?

At a station locker, a large suitcase fits the large locker at €9.50 for the first day, plus €5 per extra day, totalling €19.50. With the Radical Storage network, three days plus the single checkout fee total €13.69. The booking networks are often cheaper than the official lockers for multi-day stays.

Does Radical Storage Charge By The Hour?

No. Radical Storage publishes no hourly tariff in Paris. Its rate is a flat per-bag per-day charge, even if you leave a bag for only two hours. The only published hourly storage option in Paris is the airport left-luggage desk, which charges from €3 per hour.
