The launch of this offer couldn’t be more timely, as having solo mobility options is more important than ever in these times of lockdown and social isolation. To that end, we deliver completely sanitized Zypp’s to our customers’ homes. Users can use this service to cover shorter commutes in the area while maintaining appropriate social distance and avoiding public transportation by driving alone.
