In Koto Ward, known for its impressive array of high-rise condominiums and ample storage spaces, the challenge of accumulated unused items has become a common conversation topic. Residents often find themselves confronting forgotten gifts and purchased goods that remain unopened, gathering dust in various storage areas such as closets, pantries, and walk-in wardrobes.
As June approaches, a month synonymous with the rainy season in Japan, many people start spending more time indoors, making it an opportune moment to reassess their storage situations. The onset of ‘ochugen’ and ‘oseibo’ seasons also prompts residents to consider decluttering ahead of the gifting period. It’s during this time that the demand for services to dispose of unused items tends to surge, and that’s where Marutto Honpo comes in with a timely response.
Marutto Honpo, a service operated by SYSTR Co., Ltd. based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, is launching a special campaign to collect unused items from homes in Koto Ward throughout June. The campaign is designed exclusively for residents who want to clear out items they no longer need but find difficult to part with due to their pristine condition and emotional attachment. Items such as kitchenware from wedding gifts, towels, or seasonal goods that have been stored away can take up significant space in homes, leading to cluttered environments.
To ease the process, any unused items collected will be promptly assessed for reuse and recycling when possible, ensuring that these items do not simply end up in landfills.
The campaign period runs from June 1 to June 30, 2026, and is valid for customers who utilize the fixed-rate package plan. Participants can receive discounts of up to 1,000 yen on the total charges when collecting eligible items. This service aims not only to assist in decluttering but also to help residents reclaim their valuable storage space.
