Westport Properties Celebrates New Facility Opening in Titusville

Westport Properties, a leading self-storage investment and management company overseeing a portfolio valued at over $4 billion, proudly commemorated the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony for its latest US Storage Centers-branded facility located at 3960 South Street, Titusville, Florida. This noteworthy occasion took place on May 28, 2026, although the facility had officially opened its doors for business on November 6, 2025.

The Titusville facility marks a significant milestone for Westport Properties, serving as their first management project in the City of Titusville. With this site, the company has added an impressive 98,000 square feet of storage space, comprising 928 storage units. The thoughtfully designed unit mix caters to a variety of storage needs, aimed at local residents, businesses, and particularly the community of recreational vehicle (RV) users in the area.

Charles Byerly, CEO of Westport Properties, expressed enthusiasm about the opening, stating, "We are thrilled to celebrate US Storage Centers – Titusville and to introduce our professional management platform to this burgeoning Florida market. This facility combines an array of features that meet the needs of our local clientele, and we are committed to delivering the exceptional service and convenience associated with the US Storage Centers brand."

The newly inaugurated facility plays a vital role in the ongoing growth of Westport Properties' third-party management platform. Through this program, ownership groups benefit from a robust operating infrastructure, advanced marketing technology, and the brand equity that Westport Properties has cultivated to enhance performance across its owned portfolio. This collaboration allows third-party owners to leverage Westport's national marketing capabilities, centralized revenue management processes, and dedicated customer service operations, all managed by a team of nearly 600 experienced storage professionals.

Facility highlights include climate-controlled storage units, enclosed and covered RV parking spaces, passenger elevators, and a selection of moving supplies and equipment like moving carts and boxes. Additionally, the property is equipped with modern security features, such as electronic gated access, video surveillance, and two loading docks to facilitate seamless operations.

A standout aspect of the Titusville facility is its status as a Kure-It Certified Location. This certification aligns with Westport Properties' steadfast commitment to raising awareness and funds for underfunded cancer research initiatives, further emphasizing the company’s community involvement.

Situated conveniently on South Street, the facility offers easy access to the I-95 corridor, connecting it effectively to the larger Brevard County population. This strategic location positions the storage center as a valuable asset in the local market, ready to serve a growing customer base.
