1. Put all items into the prepaid return envelope
We provide a prepaid return envelope with all the necessary information filled in so you don’t have to spend any time or money to return rental items back to us.
2. Drop it off at any Post box or Post Office
Japanese post boxes are red and you can easily find many of them in the city. And there are some at the airports as well. Make sure you make it as flat as possible (within 3cm / 1.2in) so that it fits in the opening slot of the post box.
3. That’s all!
Each return envelope has an associated tracking number that we store in our system to keep track of things. Everything will be monitored from the moment it's postmarked.
What a typical post box looks like and where to find them in Japan
They are normally red colored boxes with one or more opening slots and with the Japan Post symbol (〒) written on them. These post boxes come in many different shapes and sizes. You can find them at all the international airports (before the security check!), on the streets, at most convenience stores, etc..
There is no post box after security check at the airport.
