About us
Move For Less Balikbayan Box Courier ✦ About us
From your door to your family’s door
Move For Less is a balikbayan box courier based in Scarborough, Ontario. We pick up your boxes and deliver them to your family anywhere in the Philippines.
Our story
Why we started Move For Less
We started Move For Less after shipping our own boxes home.
We waited months with no word. We chased answers by phone. We never knew where our box was, or when it would reach our family.
The service around the balikbayan box hadn’t changed in decades: paper forms, phone calls and guesswork. We wanted a courier we would trust with our own family’s box, one that shows you where it is and tells you the truth along the way.

Your family can follow too
Your receiver in the Philippines gets their own account to see the box coming.
Changing how the balikbayan box travels
The balikbayan box is how we take care of family from far away. We are building the tools it should have had all along: booking from your phone, live tracking, paperwork done online and a team that answers. Updates come to you, so you never have to chase them.
