Getting here from Blackwater
Head to our Reading store
7 Bridgewater Close,
Reading, RG30 1JT
It's about 19.6 miles by road, roughly 32 minutes in clear traffic: along the A30 London Road, north on the A321 and the A3095 to Nine Mile Ride, then on towards Reading by the A329 and the A3290. You come into Reading on the A4 and leave the centre by the Oxford Road for Bridgewater Close. That's an estimate from map routing rather than a timed drive, so allow longer at busy times.
Plan the trip around a big job: once your unit is loaded, smart entry means you can come back any day between 6am and 10pm.
Worth the drive?
It's a long run from Blackwater, so it suits a full house or a stay of several months, where you load once and collect once. Call us to talk through sizes before you set off.
Choose the space you need
Use these as a starting point. The Reading team can help you choose.
Illustrative sizes and contents. Unit types and availability vary.
Reading has two floors, and the floor changes the price. A 35 sq ft unit starts at £27.50 a week on the first floor and £30 on the ground floor. The ground floor also holds the biggest units, up to 450 sq ft for a whole house, and the site is step-free throughout. Every size is listed on our Reading storage prices page, and storage is billed every four weeks rather than by calendar month.
Why Blackwater people store with us
Blackwater is a Hampshire town of around 7,000 people that grew up round a ford over the River Blackwater and sits almost joined to Camberley. Most storage from here follows a move, a renovation or a change in household size, and small businesses that have outgrown the spare room.
Moving home
Load a whole house once and collect it once, with storage for your move on a rolling stay.
Renovating
Empty a room or two for the builders and bring it all back when the work is done.
Business storage
Stock and equipment from a small firm that has run out of room at home. See business storage.
Changing household size
Keep the furniture you are not ready to part with while you decide, using decluttering storage.

Great company. I wasn't sure what size unit I needed and they were so helpful with plenty of advice even offering to let me see the units before I decided. When I booked my unit it was so quick and easy I just needed some ID docs and signed the contract then straight away I had my unit. They use an app to access the storage facility and it was so easy to use. Also they were the best value. They even phoned me to check everything was okay and that I didn't have any problems with the app or access. I would definitely recommend Wigwam for storage with lovely friendly staff and easy to set up and access.

I have used a number of storage facilities in the South East in recent years and the Pink Hippo is by far the best in the Region clean and well maintained.
The advice and support provided by Piri is excellent.

They're in a very convenient location, with lots of parking for cars and also close to the 17 bus. The facilities are always clean and well-lit, and I cannot say enough about the fantastic staff. Peri and Emma are always cheery, helpful, and friendly. Reasonable prices, as well. It's great!

After being with Pink Hippo Reading for quite a while now, I cannot express how happy I am with their service. The lockers are well-priced and the facility is clean, however, the staff really make the company what it is. They have been understanding, professional and incredibly helpful with the organisation of my unit from overseas. I couldn´t have asked for more and I would recommend them a thousand times over.
