JR East to Suspend Yokosuka Line Services Between Tokyo and Shinagawa on September 5
JR Central, JR West, JR Tokai Logistics, JR West Marnix, and Art Hikkoshi Center launched “Art de Mach-bin” and “Art de Nimossyu!” on September 1.
For small household shipments, Art Hikkoshi Center handles collection and delivery from the arrival station, while the JR Central Group’s “Tokaido Mach-bin” and the JR West Group’s “Nimossyu!” provide Shinkansen transportation. Shipments between Tokyo and Hakata stations can be transported as quickly as the same day, although moves may take place the following day or later depending on shipment volume, origin and destination, and transportation schedules.
The main stations served are Tokyo, Nagoya, Shin-Osaka, Okayama, Hiroshima, and Hakata, with service connecting these stations. The transportation service between Tokyo and Shin-Osaka stations is offered as “Art de Mach-bin,” while the service between Shin-Osaka and Hakata stations is offered as “Art de Nimossyu!”
The services make it possible to significantly shorten moving schedules over long distances in ways that were previously unavailable, enabling household goods to be delivered to a new home as quickly as the same day.
