This is a moving company providing the service within only the Tokyo area. It seems like the business owner or staff does moving work with only one small truck and go wherever there is an application or inquiry from customers.

I was able to book with Steven the day before the move. He helped me move from Yokosuka to Tokyo. Everything went smoothly, and I had a great time chatting with him on the drive. Good for a one bedroom or apartment move in Kanto area!
