Who are we? Where did we come from? And what makes us the best in our field?

The staff and employees at Zipp Express are proud of what we do. We are all locals too, and we're committed to fulfilling our role in the community.

Our Warehouse: Convenient, Secure, and Strategically Located

Our warehouse is our pride and joy, and once you read this, you will understand why. With our flexible storage options, state-of-the-art tracking system, easy access, and exceptional layout, we stand apart from the competition.

Ample Storage Space

Need to hold freight before delivery? Our 50,000-square-foot warehouse can store everything from construction equipment to medical supplies and convention displays. With both short- and long-term options, we provide flexible storage solutions for every client.

Top-Tier Security

Your cargo’s safety is our top priority. We provide a 2,000-square-foot caged area with swipe-card access and 24/7 monitoring by state-of-the-art cameras inside and out—ideal for pharmaceuticals, medical supplies, or jewelry.

Prime Location

We’re located just one mile west of I-270 off I-70, about ten minutes from St. Louis Lambert International Airport—so pickups and drop-offs are always convenient and quick.

Easy Dock Access

Our warehouse offers eight docks with ramps and cross-docking capability, making it easy for long-haul shipping partners to transfer freight quickly and efficiently. Large trucks can maneuver easily in our lot—saving time and reducing congestion for everyone involved.

Our proximity to STL allows us to act as your Next Flight Out service partner in St. Louis. We can store freight until it’s ready for shipment and move it directly to the terminal—fast, secure, and local.

Our Fleet: The Right Vehicle for Every Job

The needs of local freight transport come in all shapes and sizes—and our fleet reflects that versatility. As your final-mile delivery partner in St. Louis, we send the right vehicle for each delivery:

• Flatbeds: Ideal for heavy construction materials, machinery, or oversized cargo.
• Box trucks: Used for local routes and consistent deliveries of office supplies or medical materials.
• Cars: Fast, efficient options for small parcels, payroll, or legal documents.

We never over- or under-ship. Every delivery uses the proper vehicle to ensure safety and cost-effectiveness.
