Des Moines 3PL Warehousing & Fulfillment Services

Why Des Moines

A Strategic Hub at the True Crossroads of the Continental US

Most hubs make you choose: cost or coverage, access or availability. Des Moines doesn't. Sitting at the true crossroads of the continental US, a single Des Moines facility reaches more of the country in two days than any other Midwest alternative. Add zero inventory tax, 30-40% lower operating costs, and abundant Class A space, and the math becomes hard to ignore.
