    When we moved it was with Sakai Hokoshi Center - two of us, years worth of stuff, a 1 tonne truck, driver and assistant 70,000 yen. It sounds like you haven't anywhere near the amount of stuff we did so maybe they offer services for something closer to your budget. Their homepage is all in Japanese though, and I can't find where they might display some prices. Still, good service. http://www.hikkoshi-sakai.co.jp/ According to Tokyo Helping Hands, their services start from ~ 8,000 yen (truck and driver) http://www.tokyohelpinghands.com/ For 15,000 yen you could rent a van for the day and have a friend drive it if you can't yourself, and you'd still have money to spare, I think. It sounds like a van would suffice for the amount of stuff you want to move, too.

    I used Tokyo Helping Hands, which offers both Japanese and English speakers. Our mover was really friendly and we had no problems! Our cost for moving was around 25000 yen, but we had more large items/furniture.

Anyone else getting a database error after you log in? So far, it looks like I can still write posts, but I had trouble logging in and after log in my home page looks different to normal with a "database error" message.

Condiments in your fridge?

Just for fun! I was thinking the other day how different the contents of my fridge are to the fridge I grew up with! Just one example, I always have soy sauce in my fridge and usually at least one other unopened bottle in the cupboard. There was never soy sauce in my fridge growing up. And the friends I grew up with don't have soy sauce in their fridges even now. But my Uni friends all have soy sauce in their fridges, because they all lived in Japan for at least a year. I was just wondering what things do you have in your fridge here that you probably wouldn't have in your fridge in your home country had you never lived here.

Moving house process

I've been in my apartment for nearly 7 years. I've got my eye on an apartment one station closer to work. But I forgot what it was like to move in here! It was all a bit traumatic... Have you got some packing tips, suggestions for how to move your household goods, and what to save for last?

Golden Week 2025 plans?

This year's Golden Week gives us Tuesday, April 29th, and then potentially a four-day weekend from May 3rd to 6th. How are you intending to spend the break? Will you travel, "staycation", or dare I ask, work through it?
