balakbayan boxes

That's the way to do it. Thicker layers on edges too. Well worth a few quid on tape and some time.

That box contained a complete sound system (old one though..2 speakers, amplifier, cd & cassette player, and even a vhs player..hahaha)..My dad loved it! He has a lot of cassette tapes and he was able to listen to it all when the box arrived (we do have a sound system in our house in the Philippines but the new ones don't have cassette players) and my mum said that he listens to it everyday. It also contains a new deep fat fryer for my mum (Keith bought it but didn't like it), lots of toys for my nephews, clothes and some chocolates. I even managed to put a memory foam pillow for my sis (I bought it but didn't like it). I really don't know how I managed to pack it all in that jumbo box..hahaha

I'm sure they collect them in a big van or truck Stewart. Stop worrying mate.

Mine (6) were all the biggest size and massively heavy. Not a problem...unless all completely filled with canned stuff.
