Second hand item are free

The Kuru-kuru Shop at Kamikatsu’s waste collection centre is the town’s very own second-hand emporium, providing reusable items for free. Clothes, tableware and household items are all available – and visitors are welcome to take whatever they like. However, only locals are allowed to drop off unwanted items. Every product that goes into and out of the shop is weighed to calculate the amount of waste saved each year by reusing instead of just throwing things away.
