Passing on Unused Toys to the Next Generation: Kaikuru Ueno Asakusa Launches 'Toy Purchase Campaign' Starting May 26th

Passing on Unused Toys to the Next Generation: Kaikuru Ueno Asakusa Launches 'Toy Purchase Campaign' Starting May 26th

The mobile purchasing service 'Kaikuru Ueno Asakusa' will launch an 'Toy Purchase Campaign' starting May 26, 2026 (Tuesday), targeting toys, hobby items, and educational toys that have become unused as children grow up.

In the Ueno-Asakusa area (Taito Ward), where households often live in limited residential spaces, Kaikuru Ueno Asakusa assesses toys no longer used at home and connects them to those who need them next.

Many Toys Can Be Recycled Even Without Boxes or Missing Parts

Blocks, train toys, and educational toys maintain a certain demand in the secondhand market. However, many are discarded because the original boxes, instruction manuals are lost, or parts are mixed. Kaikuru Ueno Asakusa confirms the condition of everyday toys, not just collector's items, and connects reusable ones to those who need them.

Three Key Features of the Campaign

1. Collective Assessment We assess toys even if they lack original packaging, manuals, or have mixed-up block sets. Feel free to consult us about items you think might not be sellable.

2. Mobile Appraisal to Reduce Burden on Dual-Income and Child-Rearing Households No need to bring items to a store. We accept collective appraisal requests. This allows dual-income households who cannot visit stores during the day or parents with small children to declutter toys without leaving home. We can also handle requests for organizing large quantities of toys.

3. Main Target Items Standard Toys/Educational Toys: Blocks, train toys/model cars, educational toys, puzzles, etc. Character Toys/Figures: Popular character transformation toys, goods, figures, plushies, etc. Hobby/Games: Board games, card games, radio-controlled cars, home game consoles, game software, etc.

'Collective Purchase' Option Also Available

As a purchase option, you can use the '1,000 yen purchase box' for small items other than toys you wish to organize. Simply put items you want to declutter (small appliances, sundries, etc.) into the special box brought by our appraiser, and we will collect them for 1,000 yen per box.

* Some items may not be eligible for purchase. Details will be provided by staff on the day.

Campaign Overview

Period: Starting May 26, 2026 (Tuesday). * The end date is undecided; reception may end early depending on congestion.
