What to expect at Mottainai Flea Market
This flea market was designed around the 3R principles of Mottainai – to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
The market is held multiple times a month in different locations around Tokyo, giving plenty of opportunities to scout out second hand bargains.
People can also bring their unwanted items to the market to recycle at the resource collection corner set up at each market, with everything from old clothes, books, DVDs and even old cooking oil being collected.
The principle of Mottainai teaches the importance of life and respect for the irreplaceable earth’s resources.
The Mottainai Flea Market has been running since April 2007 and aims to aid in environmental conservation by making the most effective use of limited resources.
