    Hello, my wife and I are looking for a balik-bayan box shipping service. We're in the central part of Michigan and want to send to Dumaguete. So far all we've found is LBC, which charges a lot for tiny boxes. If anyone could tell us about a better option we'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

    Not sure if you have tried these people, but worth a shot. They might be able to help you: the Fil Am community center of Michigan: PACCM

    dodong, we don't have any personal experience with them, but Orient Star's website says they have a Michigan branch office AND mentions they have "satellite offices in Cebu, Iloilo,and in Bacolod." For anyone on east coast of US, we personally have had very good luck with sending boxes to Dumaguete & Bayawan with Atlas Shipping East, but don't know if they have agents in Michigan.
