From time to time, we’ve discussed Zipp Express’s extensive fleet; the vehicles we use to deliver to locations all over St. Louis and 150 miles beyond. So, chances are, if you’ve spent any time reading our blogs, you know about our:
- 24’-26’ straight trucks: Also known as box trucks, used most often for moving furniture, office equipment and appliances.
- Sprinters: Sprinters are vans adapted to hold parcels, bulk mail, payroll, and office supplies.
- Cars: Our couriers use these to hand deliver single items such as automotive parts from local automotive stores to mechanics, certified mail, closing documents, and other time sensitive, special delivery items.
- Flatbeds: These trucks are the best choice for moving oversized loads like construction equipment, lumber, and large items with unusual shapes, like industrial machinery parts.
- 48’-53’ tractor-trailers: Our tractor trailers deliver large loads of items, like flats of canned goods, gardening supplies, building products, sensitive medical equipment, and much, much more.
Storage
Storage is exactly what you think it is. It keeps the shipment at a location until delivery time.
What is it used for?
Other items we store include:
- Candles. We don’t want them to melt before customers light them.
- Cosmetics, perfume, personal care items
- Fine Art and antiques
- Paint.
- Chewing Gum.
- Tobacco products.
- Volatile hazardous chemicals
- Bulk liquids like solvents
- Honey bees
- Christmas trees
- Electronics
Need Storage?
Our storage is available for rent to any business in need of a safe place to store items.
And you can also leave the driving to us. In fact, you should consider it your best option. Zipp Express is just as invested in the safe delivery of our customers’ products as the customer is. Our drivers are commercially licensed, as well as hazardous-materials certified.
And with thorough background checks and extensive training for all of our employees, from office staff to warehouse crews to drivers, you never have to worry about where your shipment is and who is overseeing its delivery. On top of that, our drivers are all TSA certified. So if you need a shipment collected from the airport, they can bypass all the lines, getting in and out with time to spare.
Zipp Express is the go-to delivery company!
Our services, including the use of our storage, can be easily mixed and matched to accommodate your needs. For instance:
- Next-Flight-Out (NFO) services. We deliver shipments directly into the hands of the people loading the planes. So, if your shipment needs to be on a special cargo plane, we can do that. We are located one-mile west of I-270 off I-70, just a few minutes from St. Louis Lambert International Airport. And since we make the run all the time, it’s even faster. So not only is your shipment safe with us, we will get it there on time—every time.
- Speedy Airport Recovery. If you have a shipment such as flowers or pharmaceuticals that need to be collected from the airport and delivered in a hurry, we can do that too. Our drivers can be at the head of the line to collect your shipment so it doesn’t have to sit in the terminal any longer than necessary.
- Same Day Delivery. If your business is within our 150-mile delivery area, chances are we have a delivery route in your area. And if we don’t, we also offer onetime deliveries as well. If you’re in a hurry and need that shipment yesterday? Call us today!
- We also offer cross docking for easy loading and unloading, and our shipping partners will tell you we are easy to work with!
