Self Pack

Self Service Pack is for moving a small volume (applicable only for up to 2 m3). In addition to the SELF Door to Door pack, we also offer SELF Door to Port service for which the pickup at destination is quite simple. However, the delivery service costs in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are very reasonable, and therefore may be worthwhile.

The Self Pack Service method:

ECONOMOVE JAPAN sends four empty cartons which total 1 m3. One carton is 0.25 m3, whose inner dimensions are 520 mm (length) x 680 mm (width) x 620 mm (height).
(Outer size is 540mm (L) x 700mm (W) x 660mm (H), or 3' 6" (L) x 2' 4" (W) x 2' 2 1/2" (H))
