Appliances Shipping Cost from Nashville-Davidson, Tennessee to Manila

Shipping from the US to the Philippines costs vary widely, from around $20-$50 for small, standard packages (1-2 lbs) to $100+ for heavier items, depending heavily on speed (express vs. economy), size, and carrier (USPS, DHL, FedEx, UPS, or consolidators like Global Shopaholics). Expect prices like $25-$60 for standard services (10-16 days) and $45-$130+ for express (2-8 days), with USPS Flat Rate options offering good value for specific box sizes.

Defrost refrigerators at least 24 hours ahead of time. Remove and pack all shelves and drawers separately. Clean and pack ovens, all racks, knobs, and grills separately. Washers and dryers should have their hoses removed and packed by themselves — with the dryer's drum properly secured.

A Balikbayan box from the USA to the Philippines typically takes 6 to 10 weeks (1.5 to 2.5 months) for delivery to Metro Manila, but can extend to 3-4 months or more for provincial areas, especially during peak seasons (like holidays) or due to increased customs screening. Delivery depends heavily on the shipping company, specific destination within the Philippines, and current port congestion.
