Shipping Suitcases Back Home

Postby thisisben » Mon Jun 04, 2012 9:36 am

I'm a returning JET who's looking to ship a suitcase back to the UK. Does anyone have any recommendations for which company to use for this and links to the relevant info pages? I've not been able to find anything on Yamato that seems wholly suitable for this, but suspect that I may be missing something on the Japanese language pages.

Any help greatly appreciated!

One suitcase? You probably will be best off using the regular Japan Post then. They do let you ship suitcases:

Japan Post is almost always the cheapest for sending a small amount of stuff from Japan to overseas. You can also get them to come pick it up from where you live.
