Colliers Brokers Sale of ±6.80-Acre Industrial Outdoor Storage Yard Neighboring the Wando Welch Terminal

Colliers | South Carolina has facilitated the sale of 472 Long Point Road, a ±6.80-acre industrial outdoor storage (IOS) property in Mount Pleasant located less than one mile from the Wando Welch Terminal at the Port of Charleston. Jon-Michael Brock, CCIM, SIOR, Alex Whittemore, and Dillon Claffey of Colliers' Charleston industrial team represented the seller, Robin Hood Container, LLC. The property was acquired by Crown Enterprises, LLC for $7,750,000. Crown Enterprises is a regional 3PL with roots already near Wando Welch, and the company plans to expand operations with 472 Long Point Road.

The site is one of the few improved IOS properties in the immediate Charleston port area. Approximately five of the site's ±6.80 acres are fully paved, with the entire property secured by an electric fence, motorized gate, and full exterior yard lighting. Improvements include a ±4,502-square-foot office building, ±270 trailer parking spaces, and ±28 car parking spaces. The property is zoned industrial (MP-O).

Location drives value in the IOS sector, and few sites in the Charleston region sit closer to the port than 472 Long Point Road. Wando Welch is SC Ports' largest container terminal, handling the majority of the port’s container volume. The property also sits less than a minute from I-526, offering direct connections to I-26, North Charleston, Charleston International Airport, and the region's major distribution corridors. For port-dependent users, that proximity translates into shorter turn times and more productive trucking schedules.

As the Port of Charleston has grown, the supply of well-located IOS land near its terminals has shrunk. Sites that combine functional yard space with immediate highway access rarely come to market, which made 472 Long Point Road a desirable offering.

“Improved IOS sites that are this close to a container terminal are rare, and buyers treated this one accordingly,” said Jon-Michael Brock, executive vice president at Colliers | South Carolina. “With the paving, security and lighting already in place, buyers were underwriting a yard that was ready to operate on day one, not a redevelopment project.”

The sale comes as activity at the Port of Charleston becomes more concentrated around Wando Welch. In August, SC Ports temporarily paused container operations at the Hugh Leatherman Terminal and consolidated volume to the Wando Welch and North Charleston terminals, making nearby yard space even more valuable. That shaped Colliers’ approach to the sale, with a targeted campaign built around the site’s location and improvements aimed squarely at the port-related users and investors who would value it most.
