Clear Out Unused Bicycles in Katsushika Ward this September!

As the vibrant community of Katsushika Ward embraces the convenience of cycling, many residents find themselves with unused bicycles cluttering their spaces. In neighborhoods like Kameari, Kanamachi, and Shinkoiwa, bikes are not just a mode of transportation; they are a way of life. However, the question arises: what to do with the bicycles that we no longer use?

Starting September 2026, Marutto Honpo, an essential local service run by SYSTR Corporation, is launching a special campaign aimed at addressing this issue. This initiative provides residents with an opportunity to clear out their old and unused bicycles—adult bikes, children’s bicycles that have outgrown their use, tricycles, and even kick bikes  all are eligible for collection.

Campaign Overview

The Unused Bicycle Collection Campaign will run from September 1 to September 30, 2026. The campaign offers discounts of up to 1,000 yen when using a fixed package plan for item collection. This is the perfect opportunity to dispose of unwanted bikes without the hassle of transporting them on your own, especially if they are flat or rusty.

Katsushika Ward is characterized by its flat geography and bike-friendly infrastructure, making bicycles a common sight. However, many households often struggle with the accumulation of unused bikes, leading them to occupy precious space in bike racks and entrances. Moving defective bikes or those that don't function anymore can be daunting, causing families to delay proper disposal. Through this campaign, residents can easily rid themselves of these items.

A Helping Hand for Residents

Given that September marks a significant time for back-to-school shopping and switching out kids’ bikes as they grow, tackling the bicycle clutter at home is both timely and beneficial. During this period, Marutto Honpo aims to facilitate the collection of these unwanted bikes and promote a smoother transition into the new school year.
