David McCutcheon

Simple Selfstore

David, with his business partner, started their haulage company, Bullet Express Ltd, in 1990 after David received "the Bullet from Parceline (now DPD). With 2 vans and a £22.00 a week grant, they grew the business from a same-day courier business to all aspects of logistics and storage. They delivered across the UK as well as worldwide freight and container movements, adding storage in 2014. The company was sold in late 2023 when it had storage of over 40,000 pallets, 150 trucks and trailers and a staff of over 150. During David's 30-plus years at Bullet, they purchased 3 major properties covering over 500,000 sq ft, which they mostly still own today. David also spent 5 years on the board of the Road Haulage Association and is currently in his 6^th year on the board of the UK Warehouse Association. David received the 2025/26 merit award for his contribution to the storage industry from the association. By chance, David visited a self storage unit in Oxenholm in 2024, which led him to start Simple Selfstore in early 2024. The depot is building strongly, with over 80% occupancy at present, with more capacity in the pipeline
