Im in school about 2 hours from Paris, I'll be done in June and am planning on doing some travelling in Eastern Europe for about a month and a half. The problem is That I have a suitcase I want to leave somewhere near CDG so I can pick it up on my way back to Canada without having to come back to the town I'm staying in now. I could leave it with a friend here but I dont want to make the trip back if I dont have to.

Anyone know about luggage storage in Paris, I dont think CDG has lockers?

Long-term luggage storage at airports and train stations has pretty much gone the way of the dodo. Sad to say, it'll be easier for you to store it with your friend. Good luck!

Like many other places paranoid about terorrism, CDG doesn't have left luggage services.

You can use the lockers at any Paris train station, or if you really want something close to CDG, some of the airport hotels provide left luggage services. However, at a month and a half, you're probably looking at a pretty stiff bill - so it might just be worth going those two hours to get your stuff.

There are also self-storage options (like Public Storage in the states) cropping up around France. Companies include Shurgard,Une Piece en Plus, and Homebox.

Or there's the option of having your suitcase shipped - literally - back to Canada. Sending stuff by ship is slow and cheap, but it should be back home by the time you're done traveling.
