And I too cannot imagine that this is not possible. Takkyubin service is a core part of life for all travelers in Japan.
Yes, I would not mind that at all and would appreciate it greatly... since you are right there in Tokyo. Yoroshiku, oengai shimasu.
It is important to note that we are not being housed at the " Yoyogi Youth Hostel" but at the OMYC itself.
Here is the address and phone that I have been given:
National Olympics Memorial Youth Center (NYC)
3-1, Yoyogi Kamizono-cho,Shibuya-ku, Tokyo 151-0052, Japan
Tel: +81-3-3469-2525

First of all I need to know if this is possible FROM THEIR END. Please tell them that KuroNeko in Japan has already told me directly that they CAN deliver there.
If they can do it, I also need to know where the luggage will be available for us to pick up (what building in the complex), and when the most convenient hours are for them for us to do that.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH  . Monday is of course fine.
best,

OK, JBaymore, I just called and found out the rules.
To receive things, the rules are rather guest-unfriendly (in my own opinion) in that the guest needs to be present in his room at the time of the delivery. As you know, you can specify the date and time frame of the delivery on the Takkyuubin form when you fill it out. You must also write down your room number and building name on that form. (example; B-205). I was told they assign rooms 2 weeks prior to the guests's arrival and they can let you know upon request.
To send things from there, just go to the "Service Corner" on the 1st flooor of Building D.
Hope this does not discourage you too much.
