disneydiane61 Posted July 26, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 26, 2023 We are arriving on October 15th to Yokohama/Osanbishi cruise terminal. We are looking for a luggage delivery service to take our luggage to our Hotel. Does anyone know (post-Covid) if there is a Yamato or Sagawa booth/ kiosk in or very near the terminal? Thanks so much for any assistance or information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceMuzz Posted July 26, 2023 #2 Share Posted July 26, 2023 For most cruises, there is a Takkyubin desk at Osanbashi Terminal. If you do not find one on your visit, there is a Kuro Neko Shop very close to the Terminal and you can also arrange Takkyubin at any 7-11 or Family Mart store, which are on just about every street corner in Yokohama.

Sunlightlover Posted August 31, 2023 #3 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I also have a similar question. We are considering to ship our luggage from the Osanbashi Cruise Terminal to our hotel at Shinjuku station in Tokyo. Is Takkyubin the only option or there are other shippers available? What is the right way to arrange that, should we do it in advance or at arrival day, when should we expect luggage to be delivered to the hotel, and what would be the cost? Any additional information on this process is welcome and needed. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any additional information on this process is welcome and needed. TIA Takkyubin is not a company - but rather a word that describes the procedure of shipping luggage and other items. There are many companies that do this. One is Kuro Neko (Black Cat) - mentioned in my post above. Another is Kangaru. As I mentioned above, the Kuro Neko Office is right near the Cruise Terminal in Yokohama. All of these companies offer the same services for about the same prices. There is no need nor advantage for arranging it in advance. Prices are generally charged by the size of the suitcase. A large suitcase will cost around US$20 - depending on the exchange rate for the currency you are using. If you give them your bags in the morning, they will guarantee to deliver them the next day - and often will actually deliver them the same day if the distance is not too far.

Sunlightlover Posted September 2, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 2, 2023 BruceMuzz, thank you so much! A related question is what would be our options to get from the Osanbashi to our hotel Sunroute Plaza next to Shinjuku station? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A related question is what would be our options to get from the Osanbashi to our hotel Sunroute Plaza next to Shinjuku station? Walk 2 blocks from Osanbashi to Nihon-Odori subway station. Take the Minato-Mirai Local (40 minutes) or the Express (29 minutes) to Shibuya. At Shibuya, remain on the train, even though the name changes. The last stop is Shinjuku San-chome, which is a short walk or taxi ride from your hotel OR Walk 2 blocks from Osanbashi to Nihon-Odori subway station. Take the Minato-Mirai Local to Yokohama Station. From Yokohama Station, take any JR Train to Shinjuku Station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
