Quraz Survey: 80% of Tokyo Movers Consider Self-Storage Amid Compact Living Trend

A survey conducted by Quraz reveals that nearly 80% of Tokyo residents who recently moved are using or considering self-storage services. Due to rising housing costs and shrinking apartment sizes, 74.4% of respondents prioritize lower rent over larger space, leading to a "compact living" lifestyle where non-essential items are stored outside the home. The survey also highlights that transport support services are highly valued by 95.3% of potential users, marking a key factor for market expansion in car-less urban environments.
