Question: How can businesses stay safe from Covid-19 when sending and receiving packages?

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Other people's homes

section_content: Objective: To maintain social distancing and avoid surface transmission when
goods enter and leave a home.
Steps that will usually be needed:


Minimising contact during deliveries wherever possible.


Where possible and safe, having single workers load or unload vehicles.


Where possible, using the same pairs of people for loads where more than one is needed.


Minimising the contact during delivery, for example, by calling to inform of your arrival rather than ringing the doorbell.


Minimising the contact during payments and exchange of documentation, for example, using electronic payment methods and electronically signed and exchanged documents.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
This does not answer the question. This Covid-19 information is intended for dropping off and receiving package at home and not at businesses premises as asked in the question.
This seems to be a very good response that lists several bullet points for how to safely handle packages and deliveries. That's exactly what the question was asking about
