Right now I'm here in North Carolina, I don't know if they have sea cargo office here.

I'm just worried if I choose just to ship the box how long will it take to deliver in my home?

And I don't think they will also deliver it in my province.?!

Hello vj members here I'm back again to ask some question..So here's my question!?☺️

#1. Where to buy a balikbayan box? Like LBC box or etc.?

#2. What items are allowed to put inside the box ?

Help please?????

I'll appreciate ur feedback guys..

Forexworld.com will air freight 20 lbs for $100 from Seattle to Manila. They will do 40 lbs for $179. Try LBC also:

Where in NC are you? I live in Raleigh. Maybe I can give a suggestion if you are near Raleigh.

There is a Asian market in Angier, NC not far from where you are. It's called Bitter Melon Asian Market 9625 Bitter Melon Dr, Angier, NC 27501

Nice Filipino owners here. They will give you a box, you fill it with as much as you can and they ship to Phil for $100. Call and talk to them.
