If you can find a Family Mart, 7-11 or Lawson's. They have trash cans on the outside of the store. So you can throw away your trash there. Just make sure to pay attention to sorting it into the right bin. If your flying into Tokyo, try flying into Haneda as they have way more stores and restaurants that are open over night.

Even in the countryside most trash cans are inside nowadays. It’s usually near the doors, close to the coffee machines and hot water kettles. If you are buying something from them, it’s acceptable to throw away something you didn’t buy there. But I wouldn’t go through the trouble of asking if it’s ok to use their trash bins if I were just a passerby. It’s a bit disrespectful in my opinion. I would be wasting their time by asking if they are fine with me doing something I shouldn’t be doing. If you are not buying, keep your trash with you.

suggestions from local Tokyo girl....The best way to move from Narita airport to central Tokyo is by Orange limousine bus.オレンジバス🚌. It takes you directly to the hotels. Your accommodations don't necessarily need to be the orange limo stop, anyone can take it. It helps you to just sit down all the way.its usually around 35 dollars, Haneda airport to hotels are between 15 to 17 dollars. Instead of dragging your luggage at transfer 🚆 Stations. Especially if you are a first time traveller. If you are going to relatives or friends house, just take carry-on luggage with you and send your Big luggages from the airport to the house, 1 day delivery 🚚. It's usually 20 to 30 dollars per big luggage depending on location. You can send your luggage from Narita airport to other prefectures, to Hokkaido ski resorts if you are skiing. 😊 Ski 🎿or snowboard usually are around 25 to 35 dollars.

So Narita express only stops at major train stations, which is convenient if you have a hotel booked near those stations. So if you booked a hotel near Tokyo, Shibuya, or Shinjuku station for example, it would make sense to take the Narita Express. However if you booked a hotel somewhere that the Narita express train doesn't make a stop, you would either need to make a transfer to a more crowded normal commuter train or bus, or take a taxi. Or, if you are staying at places near the Ginza station, in the Odaiba area, with a friend in the suburbs outside of the central Tokyo area, or a notable hotel like the Sheraton Miyako or the Westin Tokyo, there are buses that take you straight to the door steps of that station or hotel. Each of these buses only makes a few stops then ventures back to the Narita Airport either, so it would essentially feel like someone picked you up at the airport and dropped you off at your place. They aren't that expensive either, a few thousand yen depending on how far the destination physically is, how frequently they run a bus, and whether or not they have a discount promo going on.

Taking a taxi isn't a mistake, it's just that it can be expensive if it's a long distance to the hotel. I took a taxi from Haneda to my nearby hotel after a late night flight and it really saved me grief, time, and energy, since I was traveling with several bags while moving from China. Not carrying a trash bag isn't a mistake either, as it's not as difficult to find trash bins as it used to be -- plus people shouldn't really have a need for such large amounts of trash anyway, while walking around. Just stop in a konbini (convenience store).

Tip: Use the busses from airports to whichever city you want to go to. They are very affordable, clean comfortable seats, quiet, and spacious. Taxis in Japan are never an option unless you really need to use it. Public trains are the most convenient, cheapest, quickest option; it's just very crowded some times.

As someone that lived in Tokyo for years and had recently gone back. Trash cans are everywhere if you know where to look. Most convenience stores have them. They are more often than not outside. Then the entrance way to most public parks will have them. Not to mention most train stations. I have never had a problem throwing away trash in Tokyo. I have never had problems with convenience store employees hastling me for throwing in their bin as long as you throw it in the correct bin. Next While Japan is generally a cash centered society you don't need to carry a lot of cash on you. Most of the more expensive places take card. In all my time in Japan outside of temples I can can count on two hands when I needed cash and most of them are around new years when everything but a few places basically shut down

As someone who travelled at all the edges of Shinjuku, this is true. Most especially the taxi fare.

Saves you a lot of bucks that you could've used for food trips. I learned once, and never did it again lol.

I got on the train to explore around 11:30PM and didn't know the train shut down at midnight. I got kicked off and found a random hole in the wall bar. This cute bartender made me a shaved carrot salad and kept calling me "carrot top" since I had red hair. It was fun but couldn't talk to anyone since I couldn't find English speakers. Anyways around 3am Ii went back to the train station and sat and waited until it opened back up so I could ride back to the airport. I ended up finding a Denny's for breakfast and thought it was funny they had a Denny's in Tokyo. I pressed a button at the table by accident and it made a noise in the restaurant and like 3 waiters ran to me to see if I needed anything and I got super embarrassed 😂

For the taxi one, while it is expensive my last trip I decided to just use the public transportation and I actually arrived when it wouldn't be rush hour. However it was exhausting lugging my suitcase, carry on, backpack and purse with me and getting on and off the train with these items. When it cane time to leave i just scheduled for a cab the night before. So, if you're traveling with more than a carry-on or personal item and your hotel or condo is far, I suggest just sticking with the taxi.

Taking a taxi from your hotel in Shinjuku to Tokyo Station with your family of four (e.g. if you are catching the Shinkansen to Kyoto) is a really good idea, especially if you are with kids. It will cost you 10-15 US dollars and save you 30 minutes of travel.

Everyone, it’s not encouraged to use the convenience store trash bin unless you bought something from the store.

Feel like the Taxi thing is a myth, except for Narita. From Haneda to anywhere in Tokyo should be less than $100 USD. It is so so much more convenient the further you stay away from the main stops. Considering people spend hundreds of dollars to upgrade their flights the less than $50 per person is way worth it to be taken straight to your hotel not having to worry about carrying and lugging your luggage around. To get the Ikebukaro it was half the time the train would have been and was so much easier

Obviously never been to Sweden if you think the taxis are expensive, Me and my mother went to Japan in the beginning of the summer and she thought it was really cheep!! So if you think it’s cheep or expensive really depends on what you’re used to,

I agree with all, I would add a modification: taking public transportation from airports is a rule of thumb, it’s part of the adventure but if you travel w younger kids, all tired, or one of them is sick you might want to check the taxi anyway. We toon a taxi on afternoon from haneda to akihabara area and it was about $80 so sometimes circumstances can change make you break your rules.

Regarding trash bins- Train stations and convenience stores (7-11, Family Mart, etc) are where you can dump your trash. Public parks also have a few. If you have drink containers lots of vending machines will have a can bin.
Trash cans are their mistake not mine. Didn't fly 3000 miles to carry around my trash all day.

I can't agree with the second, you can pay cashless like credit card , QR code or transportation card at so many places in Tokyo. I barely use cash in day to day life.
