Plan Repeat and Split Luggage Deliveries in Japan
Reviewed by Max
Let each bag follow the part of the trip that it's needed for
Your suitcase and sports gear do not have to travel together. Silk Crane can arrange stored bags for different dates or destinations, and receive them back after use.
Each package movement has its own shipping charge. Plan the bag, destination and date together, then travel with the pieces you need now.
Send the spare suitcase from your hotel front desk or a convenience store using your Silk Crane instructions. Monthly and annual storage plans are available; shipping is charged separately.
One suitcase for Tokyo, one bag for the next golf stay
Imagine a Tokyo stay followed by a golf holiday. Your everyday suitcase is needed at the Tokyo hotel, while the golf bag can remain in storage until the later course stay.
You arrange two deliveries, each with its own destination and date. After golf, the clubs return to storage while the suitcase goes home with you. Different bags take different routes, so neither has to follow every stop.
Before these stays, sign up and follow the supplied instructions to send the packed bags from your hotel front desk or a convenience store. Keep clothing, documents and essentials through shipping; arrange the suitcase and covered golf bag for their separate destinations in advance.
Plan the journey for each package
Bring gear out, then send it back
You can arrange repeated delivery and return cycles while your storage account and payment remain active. This suits equipment used for several ski or golf stays across the year.
After each stay, follow the return-to-storage instructions. The movement back has its own shipping charge.
Send separate bags on separate dates
One request can contain several delivery instructions. Identify each bag clearly and give its destination, receiving details and date.
The split and repeat delivery guide helps when a suitcase, golf bag or winter equipment follows a different itinerary.
Write the plan bag by bag
For each package, note where it needs to go, when it is needed and whether it will return to storage. That makes a multi-stop trip easier to arrange.
Allow time for each shipment and share changes before the bag is dispatched. A delivery plan should follow the travel dates, rather than assume immediate access to stored items.
Budget every journey separately
Each outgoing or returning package is charged for its own shipment according to the route and current carrier terms. Several instructions in one request do not turn them into one flat delivery fee.
Use the shipping estimates to plan each route. Monthly or annual storage remains separate from those shipping charges.
Repeat and split deliveries: common questions
Is there a shipping charge each time a bag goes out or returns?
Yes. Repeated delivery and return cycles are possible while the account and payment remain active, and every package movement has a shipping charge.
Can stored bags go to different hotels or on different dates?
Yes. Describe each bag and provide its destination and date. Each outgoing package is charged for its own shipment.
Can I combine several instructions in one request?
Yes. Make the instructions clear for each package, including where and when it is needed and whether it returns to storage.
