How is bullion shipped?

Bullion is shipped via courier fully insured right up until you or someone at your delivery address signs for it.

The courier doesn’t know the contents of the package (it is plain) and also the package goes from the supplier to the depot first and then is delivered to you by a different courier to help ensure they don’t know the contents. But it is at the supplier’s risk until it is signed for it anyway.

Yes it can be shipped to a work address. In fact that is often preferred given it is a signature required package it’s more likely they’ll find you at work during business hours than at home.
