Self-storage facilities are popping up all across the Upstate. The latest one is slated for South Pleasantburg Drive, across from the Home Depot near Mauldin Road in Greenville.
The proposed 74,000-square-foot storage facility plans to have approximately 530 units in a new two-story building on 3.13 acres at 1450 S. Pleasantburg Drive. It will have both interior and exterior access and climate-controlled units. The storage facility will be developed and owned by 1425 South Pleasantburg LLC and professionally managed by CubeSmart.
Construction is expected to begin in the second or third quarter 2016 and a first-quarter 2017 opening is planned, said a source involved in the project.
CubeSmart is the fourth largest owner/operator of self-storage facilities in the United States, according to the Self-Storage Almanac. In the U.S., the self-storage industry consists of approximately 51,000 facilities with 2.6 billion rentable square feet. The top 10 operators collectively own approximately 16 percent of the aggregate rentable square footage market share, according to CubeSmart’s website.
