    i think it's common sense to think that weapons aren't allowed, but i'll ask anyways: pwede ba ipadala via balikbayan box yung pocket knife?

    Would the size of the blade matter? How about a kitchen knife?

    Yes. We've had kitchen knives sent through balikbayan box. I don't think pocket knives would be an issue.

    This is from the US through sea freight.

    hehehe!

    samurai - tao. yung warrior class sa japan nung panahon ng mga shogun.

    katana - bagay. yung sword na gamit ng isang samurai.

    pwede swords and cutlery basta sea freight kasi di masyado strict pag sea freight. pag air cargo mas stringent ang x-ray inspection process. some people were even able to send firearms by sea freight balikbayan boxes. kinakalas yung baril tapos nilalagay sa tool box kasama ng tools.

    Can anyone knows how to send automotive engine oil from the US? ang mura kasi ng mga synthetic engine oil sa America, pero parang di pwedeng ipadala thru balikbayan boxes...

    Pwede. I ordered Liqui Moly and Baldwin filters in the US and had it shipped to Manila (sea freight)

    Kaya nga mura lang synthetic oil basta hindi sa casa.

    How much na ba ngayon 1 balikbayan box from US? Baka freight cost pa lang talo na agad.

    Thanks, nagtanong kasi ako, 90 usd yung jumbo balikbayan box pero may warning sila na pag nagkaroon ng oil leak at nadamay yung ibang boxes ay sa yo ang charges ng losses.... so parang medyo risky magpadala... sayang kasi ang daming sale ng synthetic oil dito, while dyan sa pinas parang ginto nila ibenta...
