No special arrangements should be necessary.
When the large box is delivered, he can open it (without any need to
lift it), and remove the two boxes one at a time.
If he cannot easily remove the two boxes from the larger one because it
is a tight fit, it is easy to bend one flap down and roll the box over
that flap and over again so the box is sitting on its open end. Then it
is easy to lift the outer box off with no struggle.
The way the gear is packaged, it will survive that "rolling over" with
no harm at all.
I do that regularly at trade shows for the K3, and more recently the
KPA1500 because it is difficult to lift the units vertically out of the
box due to the tight fit and the resistance of the foam shipping
material to the sides of the box. Much easier to roll it over and lift
off the box.

What Bill wants is two SEPARATE boxes to be shipped to him, without an
outer wrapper to combine them. He wants to be able to carry EACH box
separately from his door to his shack, so that he doesn't strain his back.
Perhaps special arrangements can be made for Bill? My other suggestion
would be to have the package delivered to the front door, then remove
each box individually and carry them separately indoors.
