1. Background and Objectives
With the expansion of the e-commerce market and the spread of flea market sites, the handling ofsmall packages is increasing year by year.
So far, Yamato Transport has already had a lineup of small delivery products such as TA-Q-BIN
Compact and Kuroneko Yu-Packet to meet the needs of customers who want to send small packages.
Still, we have received comments from customers that they do not know the price until the size anddelivery address are determined, and that payment at the time of package shipment is a hassle.
To meet these needs, we will launch the new Koneko-Bin 420 product on Monday, August 26, 2024.
By purchasing packaging materials specific to this product, customers can send packages equivalent
to A4 size and up to 3 cm in thickness for a flat fee of ¥420 to all destinations in Japan (including taxand packaging) without having to pay fees at the time of shipment.
These can be shipped alongside TA-Q-BIN products for delivery as early as next-day, and supports
collection at the customer's home or office, etc.
