Getting here from Farnham

Head to our Alton store

2 Newman Lane,
Alton, GU34 2QR

It's about 9.2 miles by road, roughly 13 minutes in clear traffic, and almost all on one road: join the A31 at the Farnham bypass, stay on it along Alton Road and the Bentley bypass, then take the B3004 Mill Lane to Newman Lane. That's an estimate from map routing rather than a timed drive, so allow longer at busy times.

With smart entry open every day from 6am to 10pm, you can drop in on a regular basis without planning around opening times.

Directions from Farnham

One road almost all the way

The A31 does nearly all the work, so there is little to learn. Watch for the turn onto Mill Lane for the final stretch.

Alton prices by size only, with no floor premium. A 10 sq ft unit starts at £9 a week, a 25 sq ft unit at £17.50 and a 50 sq ft unit at £37.50. Every size is listed on our Alton storage prices page, and storage is billed every four weeks rather than by calendar month.

Why Farnham people store with us

Farnham lies in the valley of the North Branch of the River Wey, and its castle was begun by Henry de Blois to house the Bishop of Winchester. People store from here for moves and chains, for building work on older houses, for downsizing, and for students who need somewhere for their things between terms.

Moving home

Cover the gap in a chain with storage for your move on a rolling stay.

Older houses

Empty a room while the building work gets going, then bring it all back.

Business storage

Space for a small business that has run short at the office. See business storage.

Students between terms

A summer of boxes is fine from two weeks. See student storage.

I left a well-known storage unit for Wigwam, mainly because of cost, wigwam are more reasonable, the unit is clean and is entry availablity is upto 10pm. You work off an app that allows entry not only to the building also to your rented unit. It is safe, No fear of loosing keys. The staff very helpful. Highly recommended.

I needed to organise a storage unit on a pretty quick turn around- thankfully having had one at the Alton site before they were able to do so. Lenny called as soon as I emailed and was extremely helpful on making this process quick and easy so i could get into the unit the next day. there was an issue with the app when i went to use the unit but i emailed Lenny and he rang back within 5 mins and managed to resolve the issue very quickly. would recommend and thanks to Lenny for making the process smooth.

Not used storage before. Staff were helpful when sorting it out, answered all my questions and was able to have a preview of the unit. Set up went well and app appears to work well and is easy to use. Cheers

Decent website, helpful and rapid responses to queries. Took the time to do a guided tour via phone to help me determine the appropriate unit size. Fast and efficient onboarding and the facility is clean and looks reasonably secure. Other than that, it's a storage space that you can store things in. Reasonable costs. App does the job for opening the doors and stuff. V.Happy so far.

Absolutely fantastic service!!! Holly was an absolute star, we were panicking as we were in the middle of our house moving and needed a quick storage area. Less then an hour after our first call we were already putting boxes to our Storage. The site is nice and clean, the entry system is truly clever and makes the storage Access easy and quick. Customer service is top notch 👌

Great facility! Easy to access, good instructions. The outstanding service was from the team at the head office, they were incredibly responsive, helpful and personable. You made a stressful situation SO much better, thank you. Still using the storage but know that the company is super flexible if I need to shorten or make it longer. My one suggestion is to extend the timers on the doors when entering the storage unit as sometimes it enough time to unload big deliveries onto a trolley and get back to the unit building before the doors close! All in all, AMAZING company! Couldn’t recommend more 🙂

Excellent new storage facility in Alton. Clean and well organised. All opened up using an app so no staff on site so it’s very quiet. I cannot praise the office staff highly enough. I made an error of judgment when I chose the size of unit I thought I required. After nearly filling the original unit I realised my mistake and within half an hour I was allocated a bigger unit down the hall which made relocating to it much easier. As it was also a Friday night when I realised my error they allowed me to have the two units until the next day to give me time to swap over. The staff were so helpful and made a stressful day much easier than it could have been.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us! We know how difficult it can be to rent a storage unit for the first time, so it makes us very happy to hear that you had a smooth experience thanks to the team at our Alton store. We hope to see you again soon!

App worked smoothly - site is clean and modern, unit was sensibly designed and easy to get to. Only tiny complaint is our unit was about as far away from the front door as it can be (albeit without having to use the lift) but I guess someone has to be 🙂 The roller doors on the 100 sq ft unit we have were beautifully balanced such that you'll want to be careful you don't use too much force when opening and closing them. The trolleys might take a little bit of time to get used to the rear-wheel steering particularly when heavy loaded but if you're used to somewhere like B&Q you'll be fine. For full disclosure, we've only just rented the unit and filled it up, but the experience so far has been great. Response times to emails and helpfulness of staff has been excellent.

Response from the owner

We’re delighted to hear that you found the site modern and easy to navigate, and that the unit met your expectations. We appreciate your feedback regarding the unit’s location and the roller doors—your insights help us improve our service. If you would like to move to a unit that is closer to the entrance, please do call us and we can see what is available. We understand that the trolleys can take a bit of navigating and adjusting to rear-wheel steering can take a little time, this is something we will look in to and thank you for the feedback. It’s wonderful to hear that our staff has been responsive and helpful, and we’re thrilled that your experience has been positive. If there’s anything else we can assist you with, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Very impressed with this brand new storage facility. The security and access is very impressive and it’s so easy using my mobile to open the gates and doors. I spoke with Helen and Sarah who were brilliant and made moving in my stuff very simple. Well done Wigwam, I am glad you've opened in Alton.

Farnham storage: useful things to know

Is there a Wigwam store in Farnham?

No. We serve Farnham from Wigwam Alton on Newman Lane, about 9.2 miles away by road.

How long does the drive take?

About 13 minutes in clear traffic, along the A31. That's a routing estimate, so allow longer at busy times.

When can I get to my unit?

Any day from 6am to 10pm, using smart entry. The office is open Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm and Saturday 9am to 2pm.

Is the smallest unit cheaper on a certain floor?

No. At Alton the floor makes no difference to the price, only the size does. Access is step-free throughout.

How long do I have to stay?

The minimum stay is two weeks. After that you stay as long as you need and give 14 days' notice when you're ready to leave.
