Will luggage offices in Japanese train stations hold bags overnight?
I understand that many JR stations have luggage offices (手荷物預かり所) that will temporarily keep your luggage for a fee. Is it possible to leave luggage there overnight?
Best Answer
You can put it in the locker. the price is charged per day based on this article, but your locker will be emptied after three days. You can leave your luggage overnight.
The cost of coin lockers is based on calendar days (midnight to midnight) and is typically 300 Yen for small lockers, 400 Yen for medium lockers and 500 Yen for large lockers per calendar day. In other words, if you use a small locker overnight, you will have to pay an additional 300 Yen when picking up your luggage the next day. Lockers are emptied by station staff after three days.
