Balikbayan box to PH from SW MN

[POA 178]

Good day to everyone!

I have been looking for a cargo company that serves PH but I am unsuccessful. I tried looking for UMAC and Forex, but it seems non-exist here. The forex number they have on facebook isn't working. UMAC seems to have no branch here.

Does anyone from SW MN that can point me to any cargo company that they use to send balikbayan boxes to the PH? Of course, we would like to have the tested and reliable one. Website will be great but a number will work too!

Thanks a lot!

SW MN is a tuff one. Don't think there are a lot of Filipinos living there.

I'm not sure if you are closer to Sioux Falls, SD or Mpls, but either way I think you are going to have drive to ship your box. Contact Filipino stores in either city and ask where you can find a shipper for BB to Philippines. Usually the stores will handle it for you. You may need to make two trips, one for the box and they other for dropping off the shipment. We just picked a BB this past Sunday at the local Filipino grocery store in our area. $5.00 for the box and $100 to ship to the Phil.

It's just a little bit bigger than a 7-11 store. They have lots of stuff from the Phil.

Thanks Greenbaum! I will check that out!

lol, thanks Tahoma, I do that every month. I just want to send them some stuff from here. It's a pinoy thing.

I know it looks like that but I don't. The money is just for my mom. The balikbayan boxes are just extra. Plus, my husband agreed to this even before we became serious. I also make money and help with the bills so it doesn't really matter whether I spoil or help them.
