    No problem. Take a look at this thread (click the link) I posted a photo of my boxes before I sent them.

    Hi there Steve, looks like you done this a few times and i wondered if you could help me. I went to the LBC website and tried to get the cost to send two boxes but it said price at the bottom? Is that the total cost of the things being sent??? I tried to not answer and went straight to compute but nothing happened. I wasn't sure what is supposed to be put in the price box.

    Hi Steve, yes, their website sucks!! I called them and asked how much from my door to the door of our house in Bongabon. It can be different if you send to other islands or down south. As I am in Nueva Ecija, for the 2 boxes it cost me £120 should have been £140, but I think they mis-calculated, but even at £140, it is a great price. There was no weight limit on the boxes, one of mine had a shed load of tools in, I think the only limit is the strength of the box and your wraping tape and the guy who picks it up and puts it on the truck.
    When you call them they will deliver the boxes, £7 deposit on each, and you can arrange pick up by calling the main office. Quite a simple process, this was my first time actually, so all went well this end, I hope it goes well at the other end too.

    To add to that post above, I also lined my boxes with some 3mm thick hardboard, cut to fit the insides of the box. It didnt give much 'extra' strength as such, but does stop the box being damaged or the things inside being damaged just in case something happens. The hardboard was only something like £3.50 for an 8' x 4' sheet (needed 2 sheets) in B&Q and they cut to size on their gurt cutting machine.
