How to use a coin locker

Step by step

   Find an empty one

   Found at stations and tourist spots. Price varies by size (S/M/L). On some, a green light means free.

2. 02

   Put your bag in

   Put your bag in an empty locker and close the door.

3. 03

   Pay

   Key type: insert coins and take the key. Touch-panel type: pick the locker number and pay by IC / cash / QR, then a code or IC card manages it.

4. 04

   Reopen

   Turn the key, or unlock with the code / IC card. Fees can add up over time (e.g. per day).
