Compass Self Storage, a member of the Amsdell family of companies, has acquired Safe & Secure Self Storage in Ft. Worth, Texas. It’s the company’s seventh location in the Dallas/Fort Worth market, according to a press release. The site was purchased by separate affiliates of Amsdell Group LLC and Compass Self Storage LLC and will be rebranded under the Compass name.

The property at 8500 S. Hulen St. comprises more than 68,000 net rentable square feet in climate-controlled and drive-up units. It includes access-controlled entry, truck rentals, and a retail center that sells moving and packing supplies.

"Our newest self-storage center offers our new residential and business customers easy access, security, and all of the moving supplies they would need for an easy moving and storing experience,” said Todd Amsdell, president. “We are proud to expand the Compass footprint further in this market, and always strive to make moving and storing with Compass Self Storage an easy process.”

Compass also recently opened a new facility in Sewickley, Pa. The property at 2404 Nicholson Road comprises more than 51,688 net rentable square feet of storage space in climate-controlled and drive-up units.

Headquartered in Cleveland, the Amsdell Cos. draws its roots from the family-owned construction company founded in 1928. Since its inception, the company has been active in several billions of dollars of real estate ventures, with a primary focus on self-storage. It has owned and operated more than 500 storage centers under various trade names in more than 27 states. It currently owns and operates properties in Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Texas.
