Since 1977
Two generations. One promise.
Lane Moving & Storage began in 1977 — Gerry Lane and a crew of eleven, moving Manila's families and businesses with a standard the industry hadn't seen. Forty-nine years and a second generation later, the family still signs off on every international move.
“The difference is that we care.”

Good to know
Questions, answered.
Can I bring my household goods to the Philippines duty-free?
Often, yes. Returning Filipinos and many visa-holders can import used personal and household effects duty-free, provided they've been owned and used for at least 6 months and aren't in commercial quantities. We handle the Bureau of Customs paperwork and a licensed broker for you.
How long does shipping to the Philippines take?
Ocean freight runs roughly 4–6 weeks from the US, 6–8 from Europe, and 2–4 from Asia; air freight is 3–7 days. Allowing for survey, customs, and delivery, door-to-door is typically 8–14 weeks end to end.
How far in advance should I book my move?
For an international move, start 2–4 months ahead to allow time for the survey, documentation, customs prep, and shipping. For a local move within the Philippines, 2–4 weeks is ideal — though we can often move faster when needed.
Do you offer storage and insurance?
Yes. We have secure, climate-controlled warehousing with 24/7 monitoring — short or long term — and all-risk insurance covering the full replacement value of your goods, in transit and in storage.
Can you move pianos, fine art, and antiques?
Yes — our specialist Fine Arts division does museum-grade packing and crating, trusted by Manila's top museums and galleries. Every irreplaceable piece gets a custom crate and white-glove handling.
