Westport Properties Expands Self Storage Services in Covina

Westport Properties, a leading self storage investment and management company, is significantly expanding its operations in Southern California. The company proudly announced the development of a new self storage facility located at 529 Cutter Way, Covina, California. This strategic move amplifies Westport's footprint in the greater Los Angeles area, providing residents and businesses with convenient storage options.

This newly constructed facility boasts an impressive total of 182,737 rentable square feet, comprising 1,402 individual storage units. This addition aligns with Westport's ongoing strategy to enhance its institutional management platform under the US Storage Centers brand. With this new facility, Westport Properties now manages over 15.4 million square feet of self storage space across the nation.

Charles Byerly, CEO of Westport Properties, expressed his enthusiasm about this development. He highlighted Covina as a dynamic and growing community and emphasized Westport's commitment to providing high-quality storage solutions. According to Byerly, "529 Cutter Way represents our dedication to building modern, thoughtfully designed self storage facilities that meet the everyday needs of residents and businesses in the San Gabriel Valley."

One of the standout features of the Covina facility is its modern architectural design complemented by cutting-edge technology. Notably, the premises include AI-powered systems, 24/7 video recording for enhanced security, gated access with keypad entry, and motion sensor lighting. Additionally, the entire building is climate-controlled, ensuring that customers' stored items are protected regardless of the weather conditions outside.

This facility's strategic location also plays a vital role in its accessibility. Situated close to major thoroughfares, including the I-10 and I-210 freeways, the self storage site is well-positioned to serve residents and businesses across Covina, West Covina, Glendora, Azusa, Baldwin Park, and the surrounding San Gabriel Valley areas. This development not only meets the demand for storage solutions but also enhances the quality of life for community members who may need extra space for personal or commercial use.

Founded in 1985, Westport Properties has established itself as an owner-operator of self storage, multifamily, and industrial properties throughout the United States. The company is a fully integrated operator engaged in developing, acquiring, and managing its portfolio. Furthermore, it provides third-party management services, underscoring its commitment to excellence in real estate management.

As of April 2026, Westport Properties proudly manages over 15.4 million square feet of self storage space, with total assets exceeding $4 billion. The company's brand, US Storage Centers, stands out as a leading name in the self storage sector. Notably, Westport Properties employs nearly 600 people nationwide and is committed to philanthropic efforts through partnerships with organizations like Kure-It, a non-profit dedicated to underfunded cancer research, and Charity Storage, which raises funds for local charities utilizing unoccupied storage units. To date, Kure-It has successfully raised over $19 million while Charity Storage has generated more than $1.6 million for various local causes.

Westport Properties remains on the lookout for new development opportunities across the country, aiming to continue enhancing its service offerings.

With the addition of this facility, Westport Properties significantly strengthens its role in the community and the self storage industry, further highlighting its commitment to quality, service, and innovation.
