Cactus Self Storage is the wholly owned and funded new self storage platform by Martin’s Properties, which acquires sites, secures planning, develops and operates new purpose-built self storage facilities across the South and South West of England.

There are several unique attributes that we have built into Cactus:

• It is a fully integrated platform which acquires the best sites, develops purpose-built, well-designed schemes that are able to build in the operational needs from day one. This ensures a premium customer experience as well as a robust income return for the wider business.
• Cactus is technology-led, enabling customers to sign up online in under 10 minutes with no paperwork, and access the site and their unit entirely via a smartphone app, with no physical lock or key needed. The technology also captures data and insight to inform future site decisions. Beyond that, Cactus offers drive-up accessibility, sustainability credentials (solar power, EV charging and future-proofed construction) and a secure, fully lit environment with parking directly outside each unit.
• Research and testing have helped us develop and deliver the right concept with new ideas that meet consumer demands and a changing demographic. This is a well thought-out business that isn’t focussed on simple conversion or fit-out but a roadmap for a long-term, future-focussed, customer offer.
