Save the 'Second-hand Refugees' with the Ichinomiya Buyback Campaign!
The Ichinomiya Buyback Shop, a service launched in February this year, is kicking off a campaign starting April 1st aimed specifically at acquiring large furniture and appliances. This initiative is especially significant as many residents face overwhelming challenges disposing of these items during a busy time for transitions such as schooling and job relocations.
Why Focus on Large Items Now?
April marks a peak period for movement of goods due to a surge in new students, job changes, and relocations, often leading to a significant influx of larger items needing disposal. For residents in Ichinomiya, managing large appliances like refrigerators, washers, and sofas can be particularly difficult. Common issues include the items being too heavy to move, high disposal fees, and challenges in scheduling municipal collection services. Consequently, we are witnessing an increase in what has come to be known as
'second-hand refugees.'
In response, the Ichinomiya Buyback Shop aims to alleviate these local difficulties while contributing to a circular economy by enhancing its acquisition and removal processes for these larger items.
Campaign Overview
- - Kickoff Date: April 1, 2026 - Ongoing
