[Taito Ward Exclusive] Collect Unused Tools and Materials Together, May-Limited Campaign Starts | Leather, Wood, Handicraft Supplies Also Eligible [1,000 Yen Discount] | Marutto Honpo Waste Collection

Taito Ward, encompassing areas like Asakusa, Ueno, Kuramae, Asakusabashi, and Yanaka, is a manufacturing hub in downtown Tokyo where leather craftsmen, handicraft wholesalers, and small factories gather. Many residents in these areas, such as Kuramae, known as the sacred place for leather products, Asakusabashi, lined with doll and handicraft wholesalers, and Yanaka, where woodworkers and fittings craftsmen have long resided, keep tools and materials at home.

Are "tools and materials you planned to use someday" — such as leather scraps for leather crafts bought but never used, DIY wood purchased from home centers, yarn and fabric stock, or handicraft kits unopened for three years — still occupying your storage space or workshop?

Leather and wood are heavy and difficult to transport, tools are considered hazardous and hard to dispose of through local governments, and large quantities of yarn, fabric, and handicraft supplies are troublesome to sort. These "tools and materials you planned to use someday" are prime examples of unwanted items that are difficult to decide on disposing of and often left untouched because they don't fetch a price at flea markets.

May is the time for post-Golden Week cleanup, a moment when people "decide not to make it anymore." During this period, when demand for "Taito Ward waste collection," "DIY tool disposal Kuramae," and "bulk collection of leather scraps and wood" increases, Marutto Honpo is ready to respond.

Marutto Honpo (operated by SYSTR Inc. / Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo), a waste collection service, is implementing a campaign exclusively in Taito Ward for the bulk collection of "tools and materials you planned to use someday."

For collections including long-term stored items such as leather, wood, handicraft supplies, and DIY tools, a total discount of 1,000 yen will be applied in May.

This campaign provides an opportunity to organize all those tools and materials that have been dormant with the intention of "someday use," right after Golden Week.

✅ Background and Purpose

Taito Ward is also a downtown Tokyo area, including Asakusa, Ueno, Kuramae, Asakusabashi, Yanaka, and Minowa, where traditional artisan and wholesale districts spread.

Especially,

* A complete set of leather and leather tools, and leather scraps collected in Kuramae
* Yarn, fabric, and handicraft kits purchased from wholesalers in Asakusabashi
* DIY wood, scraps, and power tools bought in bulk from home centers

These items are often difficult to decide on disposing of and tend to occupy storage rooms and workshops for long periods.

This campaign was planned to support bulk disposal during the post-Golden Week period in May, when the need for organizing tools and materials increases.
