Blind Shipment is a type of shipping where the shipper doesn’t tell the carrier or recipient where the things came from or where they’re going.

The term “blind shipment” is used interchangeably to describe a type of shipping in which the sender and/or recipient’s identities are hidden from either party. The shipper may play the role of a middleman in a blind shipment, obscuring both the products’ origin and their ultimate destination from the recipient. It’s common practice to utilize this approach when secrecy, competitive advantage, or a lack of public scrutiny is at stake. Blind shipments are a method of shipping in which the sender and receiver’s identities are concealed.
