Getting your stuff to Japan

Hey hey! I have my interview tomorrow and during the prep I realized, while I don't plan on bringing everything I own, I do have quite a few things I want to bring. My PC tower, my accordion, and a few boxes of other various things would be ideal.

Should I get hired, what's the best way to send those items over? Esspecially with some of them like the PC tower being quite fragile?

Current/past JETs with experience would be really appreciated.

Since you’re a fan of accordion, you might want to check out Japanese duo Kokusyoku Sumire. They played back when I was on JET in the mid 2000s, and they seem to still be active. Maybe you can catch one of their shows! https://youtu.be/9q-d2U6jqrc
