Hi VJers,

I find FedEx the most reliable. Definitely DO NOT USE the post office. The documents will never get to you.

FedEx offers free envelopes and boxes depending how much stuff he is sending.

FedEx. They will advise the best packaging.

FedEx, pricy, but at least reliable.

FedEx or UPS or DHL

Either of those 3. FedEx most convenient from US standpoint, DHL (LBC in Philippines) from Fil standpoint. Each will provide a document envelope and expect $100 +- $25 for 4-7 day service, traceable. The last time I sent documents, it took 3 days to Manila and then another 4 from Manila to SJDM, Bulacan, only 50 miles more. Go figure.

I sent like 6 papers and it was seventy something bucks form NJ to Cebu (way out in the county with no street address) and took 5 days FEDEX. I didn't send anything that she could print.

Where are you? Because I find the Fedex Lapu-Lapu center sucks sooooooo bad for getting past deliveries out in a timely manner (or maybe my local Fedex office is too dumb to charge me all the necessary clearances upfront to allow smooth delivery).

USPS has been reliable for me (7-10days) to get stuff to Ozamis area.

DHL has been reliable for me to Germany, Austria, and South Korea, but never tried them for Philippines.

Never tried UPS for international (though they are great domestically).

USPS to Ozamiz City is not a good choice. Lost many a package but some got through.

Head on over to FedEx with this link and enter the information and you now know how much it will cost you. No Guessing.

When I worked in Afghanistan I used to send stuff to my wife using DHL, and I loved it. She lives up in the mountains of Compostela Valley and usually had to wait a couple days after it arrived in Davao. It works really good.
