Temporary Bag Storage
Customers holding tickets for Amtrak travel may store their items in Parcel Check service when available for $10 per item for 24 hours. Check the station detail page for the stations you'll be visiting to see if they offer this service. Customers that don't have an Amtrak ticket may store items for $20 per item for 24 hours (valid photo ID required).
Boxes for Checked Baggage Items
Boxes and bags are available for purchase at select stations to help transport some of the items you wish to take with you checked baggage. The number of boxes is limited, so boxes may not always be available. For further assistance, please call 1-800-USA-RAIL.
