A changing neighbourhood that needs more space
The Saint-Martin-du-Touch ZAC (urban development zone) is delivering its first new homes between 2026 and 2027 across 160 hectares: flats, often with no cellar or garage. Metro line C arrives in late 2028. Purpan university hospital (CHU), Toulouse INP and the businesses along avenue de Grande-Bretagne bring a constant turnover of thousands of students, junior doctors and relocating employees, who change homes every one to two years.
Residents and students
- Between two leases, over the summer, during renovation work: an indoor unit of 2 to 20 m²
- Bikes, sports gear and seasonal belongings from a flat with no cellar
- Junior doctors and students at the CHU and INP: a 2 m² unit for the summer, code sent by SMS
Local businesses and tradespeople
- Tradespeople working on the ZAC building sites: 7 or 14 m² drive-up container, tools available from 6.30 am
- Businesses on avenue de Grande-Bretagne and in the Thibaud business area: archives, stock, event equipment
- Local associations: equipment and sets in a container, month by month

Questions from local residents
Where exactly is 68 chemin de la Flambère?
Between avenue de Grande-Bretagne and the western ring road, 300 m from the Purpan exit, in the chemin de la Flambère business area. The gate is signposted from the junction.
Can I come on foot or by tram?
Yes for the indoor units: tram T1, Arènes Romaines or Ancely stops, then about a 10-minute walk from Ancely (900 m). For the containers, ideally come by car: that’s what they’re designed for.
Is there a deal for Purpan students?
There’s no specific student offer, but the 2 m² unit, with no deposit or admin fee, remains the cheapest option in the area for the contents of a student room, and the contract ends whenever you want.
New homes in the ZAC have no cellar: which unit should I choose?
For bikes, suitcases and seasonal boxes, 2 or 3 m² is enough. To store a whole room while you settle in, 5 m².
