Getting here from Earley

Head to our Reading store

7 Bridgewater Close,
Reading, RG30 1JT

It's about 4.6 miles by road, roughly 13 minutes in clear traffic: west from Earley on Wilderness Road and Pepper Lane to the A327 Shinfield Road, into Reading by Christchurch Road and Southampton Street, then round the inner ring road and out on the Oxford Road to Bridgewater Close. That's an estimate from map routing rather than a timed drive, so allow longer at busy times.

That is short enough to fill a small unit over a few evening trips, with smart entry open any day from 6am to 10pm.

Directions from Earley
Free parking and trolleys

Illustrative sizes and contents. Unit types and availability vary.

Reading has two floors, and the floor changes the price. A 20 sq ft unit starts at £15 a week on the first floor and £19 on the ground floor, and a 50 sq ft unit at £29 or £38.50. Every size is listed on our Reading storage prices page, and storage is billed every four weeks rather than by calendar month.

Why Earley people store with us

Earley is a town of around 32,000 people just north of the M4, and the University of Reading's Whiteknights campus lies partly within it. That mix shapes who stores from here: students clearing a room, families between completions, and people decorating or extending.

Moving home

Bridge the gap between completion dates with storage for your move on a rolling stay.

Decorating and extending

Furniture out of the way for a few weeks, close enough to fetch a piece back.

Business storage

Stock or equipment topped up as you need it. See business storage.

Students at Whiteknights

A term or a summer break is fine from two weeks. See student 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.

I compared different storage centers and ultimately decided to go with Pink Hippo due to their competitive pricing, convenient location, excellent facilities, and flexibility. Plus, the staff—Peri and Emma—are incredibly friendly and helpful! I highly recommend Pink Hippo and would happily suggest it to anyone looking for a great storage solution.

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.
