US Storage Centers announced today that it has acquired the self storage facility in Phoenix, Arizona located at 4860 North 83 rd Avenue.  This property is the eighth facility owned and operated by the company in Arizona. It consists of 729 units in six buildings with a total net rental area of 82,432 square feet.

“Arizona is an exciting market with lots of opportunity and this new facility will be a valuable addition to our portfolio,” said Marketing VP Jason Lopez.  “We’re well established in the greater Phoenix market with an operational competitive advantage that enables us to provide our customers with the quality storage experience they expect.”

The majority of the storage units at the facility feature true climate control—a much needed feature in the community because the majority of the surrounding storage facilities are older buildings that do not offer this option.

Several popular businesses, eateries, and a bank are located next to the property.  Additionally, the facility is located on a highly visible corner where two arterial roads, West Camelback Road and North 83rd Avenue location, intersect.

US Storage Centers has been a leading operator in the storage industry for nearly 30 years. It has experienced double-digit growth in its third-party management division since 2009 and is now one of the largest operators in the country.
