Thanks jib71
I know those "we'll do everything for you" places are wonderful (I've used them before). I shouldn't have too much stuff though (mostly clothes along with some other stuff). Just to know, do the takkyubin places accept credit cards?
And, just to know (as I don't want to create another thread), is an AMEX card any useful over there? I don't remember credit/charge cards being widely used over there, but at the same time AMEX has a program where one can transfer their card to another country and I think it would be better to get a Japanese card if I can (provided it will be useful).
