Solving the Problems of Rent and Luggage During Study Abroad

Oshiire Sangyo Corporation (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director President: Hiroshi Morita, hereinafter 'Oshiire Sangyo') provides a 'Study Abroad Home Storage Pack' service for students who will leave their residence due to studying abroad. This service collects household items such as furniture, electronics, and clothing, stores them in a warehouse during the study abroad period, and then delivers them to the new address upon return to Japan. As the autumn study abroad season approaches after the summer vacation, the company is strengthening the acceptance of applications.

This service arranges for the collection of luggage, storage in the warehouse, and delivery upon return to Japan all at once. It is a service that only Oshiire Sangyo, which has been specializing in home storage as an in-warehouse trunk room since its founding in 1987, can provide.

This service solves the problems faced by students before studying abroad, such as 'I want to cancel my room but I don't have a place to store my furniture and electronics,' 'I don't have space to put my luggage at my parents' home,' and 'I don't have time to arrange for moving and storage separately.' It supports the creation of an environment where students can concentrate on preparing for studying abroad and learning at the destination.

Background of Service Provision

Among students who are about to study abroad, there are many who are forced to choose between continuing to contract a room in Japan during the study abroad period or leaving and disposing of furniture and electronics.

If you keep the room contracted, rent will be incurred every month even during the study abroad period. On the other hand, if you leave, you need to secure a place to store furniture, electronics, futons, and clothing.

In particular, if your parents' home is far away or if there is not enough storage space in your parents' home, it is difficult to store large furniture and electronics, and there are cases where you have to dispose of still usable household items.

Furthermore, before studying abroad, there are various preparations such as obtaining a visa, arranging for air tickets and accommodation, submitting documents to the school, and packing. Looking for moving companies and storage locations separately and adjusting the schedules for collection and return are a big burden for students and their parents.

To reduce such burdens related to luggage before and after studying abroad, Oshiire Sangyo provides the 'Study Abroad Home Storage Pack,' which sets transportation arrangements and home storage together.

Overview of 'Study Abroad Home Storage Pack'

The 'Study Abroad Home Storage Pack' is a service that collects furniture, electronics, and clothing from your home, stores them in a warehouse during the study abroad period, and then delivers them to the specified address upon return to Japan.

Using the nationwide network from Hokkaido to Kyushu, we provide one-stop service from collection to storage to return.

Users do not need to individually search for transportation companies or storage locations, and can proceed with procedures from inquiry to contract and payment online.

Four Features of the Service

1. Storage Quality of In-Warehouse Trunk Room Specializing in Home Storage

Oshiire Sangyo has been providing 'in-warehouse trunk rooms,' which store household items indoors, since its founding in 1987, not outdoor container type.

Since the luggage is stored indoors, unlike outdoor containers, it is less susceptible to direct sunlight and outside air, making it less likely to cause condensation and mold. The warehouse is operated under the management of security measures, so you can leave your precious furniture, electronics, and clothing during your study abroad period for a long time with peace of mind.

This is a service that can only be realized by an in-warehouse trunk room that has been specializing in home storage for many years.

2. One-Stop Arrangement from Collection to Storage to Return

We will pick up the luggage from the residence before studying abroad, store it in the warehouse, and deliver it to the new address upon return to Japan.

Since you do not need to arrange for moving and trunk rooms separately, it is a service that is easy to use even for students who have limited time before departure.

3. Storing Furniture and Electronics Without Throwing Them Away

You can deposit furniture, electronics, and clothing used in a single-person household, such as beds, desks, storage furniture, refrigerators, washing machines, clothing, and futons, all together.

By storing furniture and electronics that can still be used without disposing of them, you can reduce the cost and trouble of repurchasing them upon return to Japan.

4. Also Available for Changes in Study Abroad Period

If the study abroad period is extended or the residence upon return to Japan is not decided immediately, you can apply for an extension of the storage period by email.

You do not need to re-arrange the storage location or transportation while staying abroad, so you can concentrate on your studies and life at the destination.

In-Charge Comment (Oshiire Sangyo Corporation)

Studying abroad is a big challenge for students, but before departure, there are many preparations to be made, such as leaving the residence, disposing of luggage, and arranging for transportation.

In particular, furniture and electronics used in a single-person household are difficult to take abroad, and there are cases where still usable items are disposed of because a storage location cannot be found.

The 'Study Abroad Home Storage Pack' is not just a service to store luggage. Utilizing the storage quality and nationwide network of in-warehouse trunk rooms, which have been specialized in home storage since the company's founding, this service helps you organize your life before studying abroad and smoothly restart your new life after returning to Japan.

We will support the creation of an environment where you can concentrate on learning and experiencing at your study abroad destination without worrying about your luggage, from the storage side.
