Zippy Shell Expands to Des Moines, Iowa

Washington, D.C. April 18, 2016 - Zippy Shell Incorporated, the Washington, D.C. based moving and self-storage company, is excited to announce their most recent expansion to the Des Moines, Iowa market.

Zippy Shell is looking forward to this expansion and their continued growth throughout the Midwest. They will now be providing quality moving and storage services to consumers in Des Moines under the Zippy Shell brand. Des Moines, the capital of Iowa, is a major center of the U.S. insurance industry and has a sizable financial services and publishing business base. In fact, Des Moines was credited as the "number one spot for U.S. insurance companies" in a recent Business Wire article and was named the third largest "insurance capital" of the world.

Zippy Shell of Greater Des Moines, owned and operated by Todd Sharp, will play a huge part in growing the Zippy Shell national footprint. "I am looking forward to this exciting new venture with Zippy Shell," said Todd Sharp. "Zippy Shell's business model lines up perfectly with our commitment to our customers and our community. The Zippy Shell alternative is simple, fast and efficient which adds value to our overall initiative. We also believe that this part of the country is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the Zippy Shell services."

"With over 35 years in the moving business and a strong commitment to providing quality service to his customers, we believe Todd is the perfect partner to develop this market," said Rick Del Sontro, CEO of Zippy Shell. "We are excited to service the Greater Des Moines market with our convenient and prompt service at a competitive price. There is a constant fluctuation of people moving to and from the Des Moines area which is perfect for a new Zippy Shell franchise location."

Zippy Shell's offering of on-demand storage and moving services continue to gain more traction with the consumer public. More and more "millennials" are turning to these type of services as the convenience at an affordable price is exactly what they are looking for.  

Zippy Shell Des Moines is scheduled to officially open May 16, 2016.
