This has probably been discussed before (B&N, LBC..) but what are the other companies that any of you use that is reliable and does not open the box? I had a little too much shopping whilst here and planning to send out some of the items in a Balikbayan Box. Anybody dealt with pilferage or box being opened or missing items?
Personally if I send a box again I think I'd go with LBC. Not very helpful for you but I just feel as they are a large company they should be more reliable.
We sent eleven box's in July, received then in Dumaguete just after xmas. Used Belwood, all boxes were unopened and minimal damage,a few broken glass ornaments.
Yes, wife's living in Dumaguete, and we sent the box's to a unfinished house. Second floor almost done, three bedroom all have en-suite, It's a huge house, wish i'd have made it smaller. I feel like i'm living on a building site, which it is, full of dust etc.
Forgot you where building! Building work has suspended on ours after the last typhoon destroyed 2 brothers and a sisters house aswell as our own place. Work will start again in February and we'll have to trust them to build it as we want it because we'll be back in the UK soon. We've done some shopping for it like door furniture, we'll pick out floor tiles we like so they can get similar etc.
