South London
Sell my caravan or motorhome in Croydon
South London's largest borough town, with mixed home and yard storage.
Local context
Touring, storage and condition in Croydon
Croydon has a mix of suburban driveways where a caravan just about fits and terraced streets where it doesn't, so storage is split between home and yards towards Surrey. Owners here typically tour Kent, Sussex and the South Coast.
Purley and Coulsdon towards the Surrey border have larger plots with genuine driveway space, which is why home storage survives here in a way it doesn't in Thornton Heath or Norbury's tighter terraced streets. This split within the same borough means condition and access can vary a lot from one Croydon postcode to the next.
The A23 and M23 give quick access south towards Gatwick and the Sussex coast, and this is the route most local owners use for regular touring, distinct from the M25-focused pattern seen further into outer London. Sanderstead and Addington sit close enough to this route to make touring genuinely practical.
Where yard storage is used, it tends to be just over the Surrey boundary rather than deep into Kent, kept close enough that collecting the caravan for a trip doesn't itself eat into the holiday. This proximity is one of the things that distinguishes Croydon from boroughs further from the M23 corridor.
Home collections work where there's room to hitch and pull forward. Otherwise we'll come to the storage site.
Collection
How we reach vehicles in Croydon
Home collections are realistic in Purley and Coulsdon where driveways allow room to hitch and turn, but terraced streets around Thornton Heath and Norbury are tighter and may need on-street arrangements instead. Storage yards just over the Surrey border are the usual alternative, generally straightforward to reach via the A23.

Why owners sell
What prompts a sale in Croydon
Terraced street storage limits
Owners in Thornton Heath or Norbury without driveway space sometimes sell rather than commit to ongoing yard fees.
Reduced South Coast trips
As regular Sussex or Kent touring becomes less frequent, some Croydon owners decide the vehicle isn't earning its keep.
Surrey yard costs rising
When a nearby storage yard's fees increase, some owners choose to sell rather than continue paying.
