Apple Trade-In program question

I just ordered a new iPad Mini 5 and am using my iPad Mini 3 as a trade-in. Since Apple will not deliver to my USPS post office box (because I have to sign for the package), I used my street address even though the USPS does not deliver to it.


However, nowhere was I asked to which address I wanted my trade-in kit sent! How does Apple send the kits; USPS, FedEx, or UPS? If it is FedEx or UPS, then as long as I know when it will be delivered, I can have my gate open. But, if it is via USPS, then I'll need to give them my USPS post office box address.


Has anyone done a trade-in with Apple and can tell me how Apple sent you the kit?

iPad mini 4, iOS 12

Down on this page they say if you have further questions to contact apple support

Apple Trade In - Apple


So that may be your best method. I have a funny feeling that the shipment method may depend on the location

Well, just tried to do it and the link doesn't work in either Safari or Firefox. The former says it is at apple.com but is a blank page, while the latter reports "Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete."


So I called the online store number and asked the question. The store specialist thinks the trade-in kit will be sent the same way as the item I ordered which is via FedEx according to the order shipment email I just received.
