Service snapshot
ecbo cloak is a travel-focused app that connects people on the move with local businesses that have spare space for baggage. It operates like a sharing-economy marketplace: users locate nearby partner shops, reserve a slot, and drop off items for short- or mid-term storage.
How bookings work
Search for a convenient pickup point, book a time slot through the app, and bring your luggage to the selected partner store. Many locations accept reservations in advance, and staff at the host shop will hold your bags until you return.
Key capabilities:
- Multi-day holds are possible at participating locations, though each partner sets its own rules.
- Accommodation for oversized pieces such as strollers, musical instruments, and sports gear.
- Simple online reservations and digital confirmations for ease of use.
- Multiple payment choices: credit card via the app, with some venues allowing payment when you drop off.
Where you can leave items
ecbo cloak partners with a wide variety of local businesses so you can store baggage close to transit hubs and city centers. Typical hosting sites include:
- Counters inside railway stations and other transit points
- Post offices and postal service outlets
- Hair salons and small retail shops
- Cafés and casual eateries
Pricing and payment details
The basic rate structure is straightforward and charged per item per day:
- Smaller bags (longest side under 45 cm): 400 yen per day
- Standard suitcase sizes (longest side 45 cm or more): 700 yen per day
Payment is primarily handled by credit card through the app, but certain shops still accept payment at the counter when you drop off.
