    All international mails/parcels going to the Philippines need to be collected at the post office. It would only arrive at the recipient's doorsteps if the mail/parcel was sent via a private courier (i.e. DHL, Fedex, etc.). There are very few postman in the Philippines now and the only thing they deliver are the local mails and the notice from post office that you have an international mail/parcel that you have to get in the post office stated.

    Postie still delivers to our house if it is a letter. Like a lot of things in the Philippines it depends in which area you live.

    Oh I didn't know that. We rarely get international mails (letters) other than notices of parcels that need to be picked up in the post office. Also, the letters/bills we get locally are delivered not by postman but by that company's (whoever sent it) messenger. The last postman I've seen that came to our house was when I was still a kid!

    thats how its done in Batangas too...It is always handy to have contact numbers of your local post office.
