Bordon is not a town you already know. It is a town still being built, with new streets and new neighbours arriving as the old garrison land turns into a proper town centre. Four Marks is a different story: a village on the A31 that most people drive past without a second thought, on the way to somewhere else. Both are fair starting points for the same question: does anywhere already cover me for storage? It does, and you do not need prior knowledge of the area to find it.
If you’re moving into Bordon, start with the section below on Bordon coverage.
If you’re in Four Marks and already drive the A31, jump to the Four Marks section.
If you just want the route and the Alton store, skip to the end for how to check availability.
Is there storage for Bordon, even though the town’s still being built?
Yes. Wigwam Self Storage Alton already lists Bordon in its coverage area, so there is an established option nearby even though nothing carries the Wigwam name inside Bordon itself. That matters more, not less, while the town is mid-build: a half-finished town centre does not mean a gap in the services around it, it means some of those services sit just outside the boundary, on the Alton side of the A325.
If you searched “storage Bordon Hampshire” or “nearest storage to Bordon” expecting a directory listing, here is the simpler version: the nearest established, multi-location provider is a short drive away in Alton, already familiar with Bordon addresses.
Is there storage for Four Marks, or is it too small a village to be covered?
Yes, and the reason is geography rather than a coverage list: Four Marks sits directly on the A31, and the Alton store is about 4.4 miles up the same road. Wigwam’s own coverage copy does not name Four Marks specifically, so this article will not pretend it does. What can be said with confidence is that the road already does the work: if you are on the A31 in Four Marks, you are already on the route that reaches the store.
For anyone who typed “self storage Four Marks Alton” hoping for something closer than a directory of Alton businesses, that is the answer, stated as it stands rather than dressed up as a marketing claim Wigwam has not made.
The route from Bordon: A325 to the Alton corridor
Bordon itself does not sit on the A31. It is reached from the Alton direction along the A325, known locally as Farnham Road or Petersfield Road through the town, connecting through to the A31 corridor at Alton. Getting the road wrong is the kind of small error that makes a route feel less trustworthy, so it gets named correctly here rather than glossed over.
No exact mileage is quoted here, because a live route beats an average we cannot stand behind. A quick check on a route planner from your own start point will give a better figure than any estimate could.
The route from Four Marks: already on the A31
This one is simple: 4.4 miles, entirely on the A31, the same road that already runs through Four Marks. If you drive the A31 toward Alton for anything else, shopping, the school run, work, the storage store is already on your route. It is not a special trip bolted onto your week; it is a stop on the road you were already using.
Bordon’s regeneration, in plain terms
Whitehill and Bordon is a former garrison town (previously home to Prince Philip Barracks), now roughly halfway through a long-term regeneration programme that is turning that former Ministry of Defence land into a new town centre. According to East Hampshire District Council, the programme has already delivered 2,400 new homes, with a target of growing the community from around 14,000 people to more than 23,000 over the coming years. A new Sainsbury’s, described by the council as the cornerstone of the emerging town centre, broke ground in 2025; the council’s own August 2026 update now points to an estimated opening in spring 2027, later than the summer 2026 date first announced.
This is not local history for its own sake. If you are moving into one of the newer parts of Bordon, you are arriving mid-build, not into a finished, long-established town, and that is exactly why it helps to know early that a storage answer already exists nearby. This note reflects the regeneration programme as reported by East Hampshire District Council, most recently in August 2026, and like any multi-year building programme, the detail will keep moving as it progresses.
One boundary is worth being upfront about: the support team can talk you through sizing, availability, access and booking, but will not offer views on the town’s regeneration, its planning history, or its former military use. For that, the council’s own pages are the right place to look.
Why nearby coverage isn’t a lesser answer than a branch in town
Neither Bordon nor Four Marks has a Wigwam site inside it, and it is more useful to say that outright than let a vague “coverage” claim do the work a straight answer should. What the Alton store offers instead is an established, multi-location provider reachable easily from either place, with real premises, real support and a real address, rather than an informal local option you cannot easily check up on.
A newcomer to Bordon might reasonably assume there is somewhere for storage right in the town. In practice, a few small, informal operators exist directly in the area, generally with limited hours and no wider backing behind them. This piece will not name or assess them; the point is simply to show what an established nearby option looks like, so you can compare it on your own terms.
What the Alton store actually offers, and one clear no
The Alton store keeps things clean, dry and secure. Access runs from 6am to 10pm, seven days a week, using smart entry so you are not waiting on anyone to let you in or out. There is a deposit when you book, a 14-day notice period to end your agreement, and any unused days are refunded: three separate points, kept separate here rather than folded into a single line.
The clear no: there is no container storage at Alton. Wigwam only offers container storage at Shipston-on-Stour, Chipping Norton and Warminster, nowhere near this corridor. Better to say so now than let you find out after a wasted call.
Getting a storage answer sorted, from Bordon or Four Marks
One store, two routes, one answer either way. From Bordon, the A325 gets you to the Alton store. From Four Marks, you are already on the road that takes you there. Either way, you do not have to keep wondering whether somewhere covers you: it already does. The next step is the same for both: check availability at the Alton store and get a sense of what fits before you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. There is no Wigwam site inside either place. The nearest is Wigwam Self Storage Alton, which already lists Bordon in its coverage area and sits a short drive up the A31 from Four Marks.
Bordon is reached via the A325 rather than a direct road link, so this stays qualitative rather than quoting an unverified number: it is a short drive along the A325 through to Alton. Check a live route planner from your own address for an exact time.
About 4.4 miles, entirely on the A31, the same road that runs through Four Marks itself.
Indirectly, yes. As Whitehill and Bordon adds thousands of new homes over the coming years, more people are moving in without an established local storage option inside the town. That is exactly why it is worth confirming a nearby, established provider now, rather than assuming one will appear closer to home later.
No. Wigwam’s container storage is only available at Shipston-on-Stour, Chipping Norton and Warminster, none of which are near this corridor. For unit storage at Alton, get in touch to check what is available.
