LBC Rush – Delivery times, Rates, and more
LBC Rush is an express delivery service launched by LBC Express in 2023. It is designed to cater the growing needs of customers for a faster alternative to the current service offerings.
Let’s say you want to send some important documents urgently from NCR to Mindanao. Prior to the service, it would take the average courier company in the Philippines between 5-7 business days at the very least- depending on the lead times, this could be even more. Now, with LBC Rush, the delivery time has significantly decreased to 48 hours for the same route.
This is a big win for business owners who are selling through online retailers like Shopee.ph since customers won’t need to wait for too long to receive their ordered products.
Of course, the speed and convenience that comes with LBC Rush also means that the costs involved are higher. Let’s look at the rates for LBC Rush in the next section.

Regarding the rates, it is fair to say they are reasonable for the value they bring to the customer – especially if you are running a business.
If we look at the ‘own box’ fee, there is a fee for all the Kiloboxes (KB Mini, KB Small, KB Slim, KB Medium, KB Large, and KB XL).
However, no ‘own box’ fee is associated with N-Pouches, V-Pouches, Sakto Pak, and NP Small. This makes flat rate pricing a better deal than the Kiloboxes if you are shipping items that don’t weigh as much.
