How to Parcel Bike in Train [Across India]
Indian Railway is one of the biggest modes of transportation to carry out your luggage or goods. Motor Bike or two-wheeler transportation is one of the parcel services provided by Indian Railways, which are less expensive than other parcel services. It is one of the preferred ways to transport the bike from one place to a new city. When it comes to shipping the two-wheeler vehicle on a train, you might have many queries in mind. Here is an article to clear all your shipping clarifications & Queries.
Bike Parcel Options
In Indian Railways, You can transport your bike from one place to another or do a bike parcel in two ways either as luggage or as a Parcel.
Luggage
A Luggage is like, taking the bike along with you on the same train you travel (i.e) Carrying your personal things along with you on the same train during travel
Parcel
Parcel is like transporting bike to your respective destination through any train.(i.e) Transporting your personal things as parcel through railway wagon
Latest Important News Update: In the past, If you are migrating to a new city, then you can choose the bike Shipment mode as Luggage and it’s possible to take the bike on the train along with you on the same train that you travel. But now the whole process of bike transportation on trains has been completely changed. Only, Railway authorities would decide on which train your bike should travel. It will be decided based on the slot availability and destination, especially for Luggage Parcel Service.
Which Transport Mode to Choose for Shipping – Luggage/Parcel
With the luggage and Parcel Options, we can able to ship the scooter or two-wheeler vehicle from your place to a new city. Each of these transportation modes has its own positives & negatives. You can check out and choose the right options that suit you.
Luggage Transportation Mode:

Steps to Book & Transport Bike as Parcel
Step #1: Take your Bike, Go to the railway station parcel office which is usually located at the back of the railway reservation counters.
Step #2: Check out the Bike parcel charges and the expected time of delivery/arrival of the bike to the railway parcel office representative/Staff.
Step #3: Take the bike’s registration certificate & insurance photocopy with you. Now submit/show the documents in the office.
Step #4: Outside the railway transport office, there will be many packers to parcel the bike. Make sure your bike is securely packed by that packer
Step #5: Go to the Parcel office, with the book puts a value on your bike. Mention the bike’s engine and chassis number in the parcel booking form.
Step #6: Now pay the bike parcel charges through debit or credit card and collect the parcel booking receipt and keep it safer
Step #7: Now with your marker make an identity by writing the booking number on the Bike Parcel packages. So that you can easily identify your bike during delivery.
Step #8: That’s it. Your booking has been done. Based on the slot & availability of trains, Railway Authorities will decide on which train it should be transported. Before you move out of the parcel office we request you to confirm the delivery date & schedule. You can also check out bike transportation status online.
Step #9: Once your bike reached the destination, you can collect your motorbike at the destination in 48 hours at any time in the destination parcel office. If you have not collected it then it will be transferred to the railway warehouse, where you need to pay additional charges/fine and collect your bike.

Step #3: You must have a train ticket to book it as luggage. Show your train ticket and book it as luggage; keep the luggage receipt & the endorsement of the train ticket. Make sure you keep it safe because these two bill receipts are required to receive the bike parcel at the new city/destination
Step #4: Wait for the train. Make sure your bike is getting loaded onto the same train. so that the bike will be transported along with you on the same train.
Step #5: After reaching your journey, go to the luggage office. Show the original ticket and the luggage endorsement. Navigate to the platform or the train compartment to receive the bike parcel.
Important Notes – Bike shipment chosen as Luggage
1. If you are booking the bike parcel as luggage, then you must be ready to travel along with the bike on Train. If you are ready, then you must have already booked your train ticket online or at railway counters
2. On the day of travel, arrive at the railway station with your bike early (i.e) at least 2 hours ahead of the scheduled departure time & Make sure it’s on the right train departure platform
3. Since you are emptying the petrol tank you can’t start the bike. Also, you can’t travel with petrol filled in a bottle since it is a violation of rules. So make sure your friend is waiting with a bottle of petrol outside the destination station so that you can take the bike parcel directly to your home.
Bike Parcel Charges [Cost & Charges]
Rail transport Fees are always cheap when compared to other modes of transportation. Please find the bike transportation cost details below
- Bike Packing / Porter Charges – Rs. 300 to 400 /-. The charges are for bike packing and for loading bike in Train
- The parcel cost or transportation charges for the bike is calculated based on the distance & the weight of the parcel through Indian railway trains
- If you need the exact cost for your shipment, then check out the below official Indian Railway website
- Railway parcel charges
- Railways parcel charges calculator
- Insurance Cost: It is based on the value of the bike. Note this cost will be included along with the bike Parcel cost. State the value of the bike as higher because the higher the value of the bike will get higher the insurance fees. Declaration up to Rs.10,000 doesn’t have any extra charges. After that, the insurance charges will be an extra 1% of the declared value
Bike Parcel Transport Rules:
- Make sure to empty the petrol tank of your motorcycle because during inception if they found a bike with fuel in the petrol tank, then they will put fine for Rs.1000 -5000 (i.e.) For transporting the bike with petrol. In some cases, the railway police will have the right to put the criminal case and there are chances to put you in prison for a period of 6 months to 2 years. So we recommend you to be more cautious about that.
- Suppose if the bike is lost because of a train accident or got damaged during the transportation then Indian railways will repay as per the declared value of goods
- Make sure you are mentioning the bike engine & chassis number during the parcel form registration. It will be checked at the time of delivery
- If you are unable to unload & collect the bike from the train at your destination station, then you can again book a bike parcel to the nearest major railway station.

Hi Koushlinder Sharma,
Bike Transportation Charges:
1. Packing/ porter charges- Rs.150 to 200/-
2. Total cost of transporting bike through railways is calculated using distance and weight of the parcel.
Documents :
1. RC Book
2. Insurance Paper
Make sure your bike petrol tank is empty before parcelling
Yes! Its important to have RC (registration Certification & Insurance Paper) for transporting the bike in train
Brother You should go to railway station and check whether your bike has arrived or not. when i have quick search in google now i found an official website to track railway parcels http://parcel.indianrail.gov.in/ which might help you to check whether your bike parcel has been arrived or not. I think charges will be minimal but Make sure you go and collect soon because if you have missed it then they will transport it to main north station. It will difficult for you to collect your par celled bike over there
We are not sure about that ! But it would be good if you have the same. Make sure you are carrying your original RC book for the safer side.
Transporting bike charges depends on the distance of train
Sample Charges :
From Hyderabad to Delhi (1650Kms), they charged 1750/- + packing charges 150/-
From Jammu to Warangal (2400Kms) they charged 2000/- + packing charges 200/-

We are not sure about that. Please ask in respective railway station 🙂
I think it will be 24 X 7 Service 🙂
Go to the Mechanic Shop near by Railway station. Pay some money they will empty the fuel tank in Jupiter Scooter 🙂

Hi,
This is venkatraman from Gandhinagar, Gujarat.
I am physically challenged person. I need to take my Honda Activa Invalid carriage vehicle to Chennai on 14th May 2016.
Some people are telling that handicapped people can take their scooters at free of cost in travelling train itself.
But in Chennai central railway station they charged Rs. 3000/- for my scooter while i am coming Gujarat.
Can u please help me on this
1. Whether it is free for handicapped persons?
2. what is the charges from Ahmedabad to Chennai central (1870kms)?
Nice information man appreciate it. But I have only one question left that is do you need Original invoice also for booking? If u have RC And insurance but don’t have original invoice then is it possible to transfer the bike?
I have parceled my bike 6 day ago. Today bike will be transported to native. But I have paid 1150 rupees more because of corruption.
Thanks Prakash 🙂 For commenting out the total cost for transportion of your bike in train. This would be really helpful for some one 🙂 So total cost for Transporting bike from chennai to thanjavur is Rs.650 (i.e)200 for railway bill & some charges for workers + packing charges
You can report the railway corruption on http://ipaidbribe.com/. They will take the action on the officers:)
I don’t think we don’t need any original Invoice for the bike. But the bike should be in Our name 🙂
We are not sure about the transport cost for handicapped persons. But from my guess there will not be any free cost for transporting your bike from Ahmedabad to Chennai central. I think only for train ticket there is concession for handicapped railway passengers
Since you don’t have any confirmed ticket Parcel would be best safest option. You can get the parceled bike after reaching over there 🙂

I want to send my bike to erode through train. Could you please tell me, how much will it cost?
You didn’t specify from where you are transferring bike ? It completely depends on distance that your bike travelling in train. Approximately I could say Rs.1500 – 2000 from Chennai to Erode. You need pay that in railway ticket counter. Also you need pack before you take to the railway station for bike packing it will take Rs.250 – Rs.500. You can also ask local transport to transport your bike like KPN, where they will also pack the bike and parcel it to your destination. The cost will be more less same +200 -200 between train and bus.
We hope RC Challan would be enough to transport bike in train. But we highly recommend you to go railway station with these documents including insurance of bike and ask them whether is it possible to parcel bike with these documents. If they said ok then take your bike to railway station and parcel it. Since it is new bike, make sure bike is well packed before transporting.
If the train starts from Talcher road and ends at Hawrah. Then it is possible to transfer the bike before a day. else you got an other option where you can take the bike in train with you. That you can do it on the day of the journey. But we highly recommend you to go to parcel railway station office and verify the details one day before the Journey. So that you can get prepared for next day journey.
I have to transport the my Hero maestro scooter from Kanpur to ghaziabad. Currently I don’t have the insurance papers. Please tell me whether i can transport the bike Hero Maestro scooter in train. Also please let me know the full cost for transporting it from Kanpur to Ghaziabad
Cost for bike transportation is completely depends on distance. And We think you cant transport bike without insurance. RC + Insurance book photocopies are must. Please enquire about this in nearest railway station. Also it would be great if you share it over here, so that it will be useful for the people.
I would suggest you to go directly with the bill to take the transported bike.So that you no need pay any money for the worker. If you ask someone like labor then they will ask for charge.
It depends on distance and you can enquire that in nearest railway station.
Sorry Vishnu We are not sure about it.But from my view you will not have any problem. But please enquire it nearest station before taking your bike over there for transportation. But to parcel in bus we are sure that there will not be any problem to parcel bike.

From the intermediate book again the bike parcel to your destination station. But before doing all these make sure that the intermediate railway station has the bike parcel service.
You should enquire that in the nearest railway station reservation counter. They will give all the details. If your destination station, is not big then it will sent to the nearest big major popular station. Then you need to collect it from the bike.
It will be calculated based on the distance. Packing charges is separate which will approximately Rs.300 – Rs. 500
Charges will be collected based on distance of bike parcel travel + Packing Charges for the bike.

No you cant do bike parcel like that. Only thing you can do is you can parcel from Nashik to Mumbai. Then again you need to collect bike parcel in Mumbai and again you need to do an new bike parcel from Mumbai to Vaddara. So you need some person to be there near the station to collect and send it back. Also it would be difficult we might not know at what day the bike arrives.
Thanks Jon 🙂
Yes it will be opened on all weekends.
To do bike Parcel the above documents would be enough. But if you planning to put petrol and take from station then you need NOC for the same else you need to pay fine to the traffic police if you are caught.
Yes you can do bike parcel with the same. You can send through your friend as parcel but make sure he got confirmed ticket with him. Book the bike parcel with the confirmed ticket.
Follow the above instruction to parcel bike. Let us know if you face any issues during transportation of bike.
Hello Prem. Hope you are doing well. Just wanted to ask you 1 question.
How much time does the whole procedure take? I mean do we need to book the bike first and they will send it whenever there is a slot free for the transportation (As parcel) or do they send the vehicle on the same day. Should I need to drop the vehicle in the railway station for transportation.
hi Prem, Parceled Bike is missing. I am not getting proper information from KR Puram railway parcel booking office and the station Master is ridicules about information. My name is C N R Raghavendran Kotha. I booked my bike (Pulsar 150 cc AP37 BH 9153) from Pune junction to Krishnarajapuram(KJM) on 26-09-2016 along with my railway ticket PNR NO : 8538635067. BIKE PARCEL LUGGAGE TICKET NO : B630893. I booked my bike along with my ticket parcel fair 2300/- . When I arrived Krishnarajapuram next day in luggage couch my bike is not available but in Pune booking office person said we are booked we don’t have any more information about my BIKE. Please inform how can i approach them. Please find my details below. they are just simply saying to wait for other two more days.
Usually they will keep it in the railway station. If it is intermediate station they will keep it for about a week, after that they will transfer it to the main railway station. You can show the bike parcel bill and collect it from there
Yup you can go some private parcel service like KPN etc… where they will transfer your bike from Hyd to Howrah. IF you still want to use bike parcel service in train then you need some person in Howrah to collect the bike and again get a new parcel bill and transport the bike from Howrah to Bhagalpur.
Yes! In Main stations , it will be opened. You can do bike parcel over there.
Raghu I could understand your problem and the situation you are in. First Question, Whether have you seen your bike loading into train that your traveled from Pune? Some times , By mistake there are chances for transporting your bike to other destination. From the content i could understand that railway station master told to wait for 2 days. I would request you to do the same , wait for other one week. If the transported bike from Pune is not arrived then ask them take a complaint on the same. Also call railway help line and ask them what to do for this ? they will guide in a proper manner. Please do write to us if you still have issues with the transported bike.
The whole procedure will take at-least half of your day. If your destination station is main station then they will send it whenever there is a slot free for transportation. If not you need to book the bike parcel as luggage and you need to carry along with you. I would highly recommend you to go before a day and enquire all the details so that you will get an rough idea on it.
It will be opened on every weekend.
For few destination there will not be parcel service available directly through railway stations. At the time you need to do bike parcel as luggage.(i.e) You can take it as luggage along with the same train you are travelling. So you can get a confirmed ticket or open ticket from railway reservation counter and travel with the same.
Yes! It’s compulsory to have valid Insurance for bike to do bike parcel. I would suggest you to take and transport the bike. To ride bike in the destination city , any way you need to take bike insurance. So I would request you to take immediately as soon as possible.
Usually if you not taking the bike from railway station for a week after delivery. Then it will bike will be parceled to main station. You need to go and collect bike from there. There will not penalty or late receiving charges for the same.

Parcel or Luggage both ways are safe of transporting your bike. Yeah you can book it in advance. If you don’t have direct train , you must have any people at the intermediate station to collect your bike and parcel it again from there immediately.
They will not send like that. But we provide you an idea. Ask them to courier the bike parcel receipt and the key. so that you can collect the parceled bike from the destination station.
You need original invoice to receive the parceled bike.Ask him to courier the Original bike parcel bill to you. The transported bike will reach to destination station based on the frequency of train.
Yes it Possible. Please go to railway parcel office and book with your train ticket as luggage.
You need to bike parcel receipt to collect the transported bike at the destination station.

The bike Parcel Charges depends on the service you took in train. I mean bike parcel or bike as luggage.

Yeah ! Its possible you can do bike parcel in Train along with the tatkal train ticket.
Yes ! You can take the bike as luggage in any train if the luggage service is available for the train. If u send as Bike Parcel it will reaching to your destination in a week (Max One week, Minimum Two days) Also it depends on the frequency of train that you are sending from source to destination.
