Getting here from Charlwood
Head to our Dorking store
Unit 3, Curtis Road,
Dorking, RH4 1AA
It's about 11 miles by road, though only about 7 in a straight line, because the direct way runs along minor lanes rather than a main road. Plan the journey on the road figure. That's an estimate from map routing rather than a timed drive, so allow extra time at busy periods.
Smart entry lets you in any day from 6am to 10pm, so one longer trip can cover a whole load.
Worth a call first
It's a longer drive than most of our customers make. Ring 01306 774111 on a weekday (the office is open 8:30am to 6pm) and we'll say plainly whether the journey suits your load.
Choose the space you need
Use these as a starting point. The Dorking team can help you choose.
Illustrative sizes and contents. Unit types and availability vary.
Upper-floor units start at £26.50 a week for 16 sq ft, and every upper floor is step-free. The ground floor costs more for the same size because you can drive straight up to the door. The full list is on our Dorking storage prices page, and storage is billed every four weeks rather than by calendar month.
Why Charlwood people store with us
Charlwood is a parish of around 2,300 people immediately north-west of Gatwick, with a Grade I listed Norman church whose murals date from around 1300, and Glover's Wood nearby, a Site of Special Scientific Interest known for its spring bluebells. Dorking is 11 miles away, and we would rather say so than pretend it is round the corner.
Moving home
Park the contents of a house between sale and purchase with storage for your move, and collect when the keys arrive.
Renovating
Move furniture out of the way of the builders and collect it when the work is finished.
Business storage
Keep stock, equipment or records for a small business without taking on a unit of your own. See business storage.
Longer stays
If you would rather make the trip once, long-term storage on a rolling agreement means one journey in and one out.

Started using Wigwam when they were still Pink Hippo, back in summer of 2025 for long-term storage needs. Convenient and easy to access via the Noké Bluetooth app. However, since February they have put up their prices by around 30%, citing 'operational costs'. Rather than pay another £40/month on top of £175 for a 50sq. ft. unit, I moved out. No doubt, they are handy for anyone local who needs regular access to their belongings or equipment - just beware it comes at a cost. Also, a note to say that Claudia was always helpful if I had question or a problem.

I moved into Wigwam (Dorking) on Mon 07 Sep 2026 with assistance from Kevin & Jake of Libby's Transport (recommended by Claudia at Wigwam) who were super-helpful. We moved some stuff from my house to Wigwam and then collected more stuff from a smaller unit at makespace in Horsham (who are fine by the way but Wigwam is much closer to where I live). Kevin & Jake did most of the heavy lifting and we organised the 75 sq ft unit at Wigwam as shown in the photo.
Access is really easy (from 06:00 to 22:00 365 days a year) and it's controlled by an app that opens the main gates, roller shutters, your unit etc. There's plenty of parking and the site is easy to find (opposite Champions Timber on Curtis Road).
I'm using Wigwam because I am refurbishing my property and I need to enable my builders to swing a cat or two*. What really works well for me is that I can drop in on my way to LIDL or Waitrose (I go there most days) and stack up some more boxes or pick up a pair of clean socks - or whatever.
* No cats were harmed during the making of this post...

A great sign-up experience at this facility when I walked in; quick and no fuss with an ideal unit available. Clean, modern and secure, with good access times. All gates and doors are managed through a phone app.
Rates are reasonable, and the starting discount was a bonus.
Claudia couldn't have been more helpful and efficient.

Wigwam have provided a clean and safe local storage environment which proved very useful to us at a competitive price.
We have no complaints at all and must compliment Claudia on her customer service; always polite, cheerful, friendly and efficient.
Definitely 5 stars.

In the midst of some house-move chaos/stress, I wanted/needed to get a storage unit sorted without undue procedure, delay or expense. A quick phone call with Claudia outlined the necessary steps, and when I visited Wigwam Dorking the next day it was straightforward to get everything set up on the spot. Claudia explained everything and showed me round - she was very efficient, helpful and friendly. And when I visited two days later, on a Sunday, the access to the site and my unit via the app worked seamlessly.

This is an excellent facility. Clean, secure, well-organised and easy to access. You use an app to unlock it but it’s straightforward and no-nonsense. There are trollies to move your stuff, the lift is reliable. Out of probably a dozen visits I only encountered anyone else here two or three times. It’s fit for purpose and I would definitely use it again.

A truly seamless experience. Great customer service from Claudia showing me around various units together with offering clear instructions on how to complete the contract. Nothing appeared to be too much trouble for her and she was able to answer all my questions. She is a credit to the company and without her help and guidance I probably would not have secured a unit.

A huge thanks to Claudia. I only met her a couple of times but she was so helpful, friendly and efficient. As the face of the company at your Dorking site she really couldn't give a better impression and because of her I had full confidence in your storage facility.
I would not hesitate to recommend.

Charlwood storage: useful things to know
Is there a Wigwam store in Charlwood?
No. We serve Charlwood from Wigwam Dorking on Curtis Road, about 11 miles away by road.
Is Dorking really 11 miles from Charlwood?
By road, yes. It is only about 7 miles in a straight line, but the direct way uses minor lanes, so plan on the 11-mile road figure and allow longer at busy times.
When can I get to my unit?
Any day from 6am to 10pm, using smart entry, so a long trip can start early. The office is open Monday to Friday 8:30am to 6pm and Saturday 9am to 4pm.
How do I move furniture into an upper-floor unit?
The upper floors are step-free throughout and trolleys are provided. For something bulky, ground-floor units have drive-up access.
Do I need to pay a deposit?
No deposit is needed. We're not currently taking deposits from new customers.
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.
Do I need insurance?
Everything you store needs cover: our contents protection, or your own policy if it covers goods in self storage. Send us proof within 14 days of moving in and we'll refund the contents protection charges.
