How Zippy Shell Portable Storage Containers are Built Differently

Whether you are moving across town or across the country, Zippy Shell is the way to go. We can assist you with short or long-term storage solutions. Although there are many moving and storage companies in the Houston area, there are none that are quite like us. Here's what sets us apart from the rest of the crowd:

Easy Transport

Our storage containers are built to be transported inside of our Zippy Shell moving trailer. The containers stay protected inside the trailer while at your property, so you can rest assured that everything is secure. Your storage container won't leave the trailer until it arrives at our secure storage facility.

Lightweight Construction

Whereas many of our competitors construct their entire storage containers from heavy, expensive solid steel or plywood, our containers are built of a simple but strong steel frame and base. The sides and top are made instead from heavy-duty wire. This reduces the cost of our containers, as well as the weight, yet leaves them actually able to carry MORE weight than our competitors. The lower weight reduces our transport costs as well, enabling us to pass those savings along to you.

Open View

Another benefit of our containers' open, wire construction is that it enables your belongings to breathe. There's nothing worse than that musty odor that often clings to your belongings in other storage units. With our containers, air is allowed to flow through, even after we wrap your container in plastic when we get it back to our climate-controlled warehouse. This open construction also enables you to see through the sides of the container, making it easier to find the things you are looking for after your container has been loaded.

Increased Tie-Down Points

Rather than only being able to tie down your belongings at the front of a traditional storage container, our wire frame construction gives you virtually infinite tie-down points. This way, you can create somewhat of a spider web effect around your most fragile items to ensure that they don't slide around in transit. This can greatly reduce the risk of any damage to your belongings while moving so that everything arrives at your destination safe and sound.
