Small hotel room and luggage storage FAQ for Japan
What can I do with a large suitcase if my hotel room in Japan is too small?
Pack the clothing and everyday items you need in a smaller bag, then send the large suitcase or other ordinary travel bag to Silk Crane storage. We can arrange delivery later to a hotel, airport departure counter, or another destination in Japan. Shipping charges are separate from storage.
Where can I store a large suitcase while staying at a capsule hotel or compact business hotel in Japan?
Use Silk Crane when you do not need daily access to the large suitcase during your capsule-hotel or compact business-hotel stay. Send the bag to storage, keep the smaller bag with you, and arrange its return later. This is ship-to storage rather than a walk-in hotel locker.
How can I send luggage to storage if my unmanned accommodation in Japan cannot arrange shipping?
Once your storage account is active, use the address and suite details Silk Crane provides. Take the packed luggage and waybill to a convenience store such as 7-Eleven or FamilyMart, or to a Yamato sales office. You can also ask whether Yamato pickup is available, so the unmanned property does not need to send the bag for you.
