Easy to use and completely secure, our bike boxes are a great way of taking your bike with you. Fitted with padding and a protective hard case, they’re easy to use whatever your level of experience.
At the station, head to the registered luggage office to drop off your bike, then collect it from the registered luggage office at the other end.
To send your bike in a box, you’ll need to remove the wheels. You might also have to take off the pedals, lower the seat and turn the handlebars.

When you get to the other end, go to the registered luggage office to collect your bike.
Please note: Since fully assembled bikes take up more space, availability is limited. If you want to be sure your bike will travel on the same train as you, we recommend booking in advance.
If you own a folding bike, it can be taken on any Eurostar train, as long as it’s smaller than 85cm when fully folded, and in a protective bag that covers the whole bike. This is to protect your bike, other people and their luggage both at the station, on board and going through security.
If you’re planning on bringing a child’s bike on board, it also needs to be smaller than 85cm and in a bag. Otherwise, you’ll need to send it with our registered luggage service.
Bring your bike along on the day and for €46 (boxed) or €64 (fully assembled), we’ll send it on the first available train. It might not travel on the same one as you, but it’ll be at your destination within 24 hours.
Please arrive 90 minutes before your train departs so there’s time to get your bike organised.
