What Should You Look for When Choosing a Commercial Storage Facility?
- Security and monitoring: Look for a facility with 24/7 security cameras, controlled access, and alarm systems to protect your belongings or inventory.
- Climate control: Temperature and humidity regulation — is essential to prevent damage to sensitive items such as electronics, documents, and furniture.
- Clean and well-maintained space: A clean, organized warehouse reduces the risk of dust, pests, and moisture damage.
- Flexible storage options: Choose a facility that offers both short- and long-term storage so that you can adjust as your needs change.
- Accessibility and location: A centrally located facility near major highways or airports makes moving goods in and out more efficient.
- Professional handling and support services: If you need loading, unloading, or delivery assistance, look for a company that provides complete logistics support.

Need short and long term storage in St. Louis?
Zipp Has Room for You!
The Zipp Express warehouse has 50,000 sq ft of space, 20 ft ceilings, with 40 ft column spans. Security is a priority when warehousing anything, especially for businesses dealing with high-value items. Zipp Express recognizes the significance of this obligation and has established rigorous security protocols to ensure the safety of our clients' assets. Since we store everything from medical supplies to jewelry to large construction equipment security has to be a priority.
Want to take advantage of sale but don't have enough room in your stockroom? With facilities this large, we can easily offer both short and long term storage. We can store it for you until you need it. With LTL service it's easy to have your merchandise delivered within 24 hours!
Freight overflow? We handle that too. For example, if your storage area is temporarily full, we can hold your full merchandise pallets until you can make room for them. We can also store special occasion items like convention displays and folding chairs until you are ready to use them for an event. Zipp Express can also hold cargo until you're ready for it to be delivered to clients or the airport. Our short and long term storage facilities are the best in St. Louis.
For items that require extra security, we provide a 2000 sq ft cage area. This space often stores jewelry, pharmaceuticals, and expensive equipment. It is accessed with swipe card technology, which limits admittance to warehouse personnel only.
With this many options available, we can fulfill your needs for short and long term storage in St. Louis. Contact us for more information.
Once your shipment reaches our warehouse, we place it on one of the vehicles in our fleet. From there, it is delivered to you by a member or members of our team.
Our drivers are available 24/7/365 days a year. Not only do they have the already mentioned TSA certifications, they are also hazardous materials certified. This means that if you need something like medical supplies or combustive materials like propane to be delivered, they have the knowledge needed to deliver it safely. And if you need same-day delivery, we can do that too!
Zipp Express hires local drivers. Because of this, we have team members who are already familiar with the city and surrounding areas. They are prepared for the ins and outs of freeways, rush hours, and which streets will get them where they need to be in a timely fashion. The skill sets of our drivers combined with mapping technology and GPS makes them unbeatable.
One more thing: Zipp Express will never charge you for more vehicle than you need. We will not bring your couch to you in an otherwise empty straight truck and charge you for the straight truck. And we also offer LTL (Less than a Truck Load) service for those times you don't need an entire shipment.
With every service offered by Zipp Express, customer trust and satisfaction are our goals. We are fully insured and your deliveries are safe with our drivers. Zipp Express has a distinct advantage: our dedication to delivery execution and our commitment to our customers. Become one of our satisfied customers and contact us today for your courier needs!
