Free 2-hour shopper parking at Waitrose Leatherhead with EV charging
Waitrose Leatherhead Car Park is a private surface lot reserved for Waitrose shoppers. It offers 220 marked bays including 12 disabled-access spaces nearest to the store entrance. Access is free for up to 2 hours via ANPR validation—overstay fees apply via RingGo. The tarmac surface is inspected monthly, with drainage channels cleared weekly and potholes patched within 48 hours. LED bollard lighting illuminates the lot during store hours (7 am–10 pm daily), and four CCTV cameras cover entry, exit, and pedestrian walkways. Pedestrian paths lead directly to Waitrose main entrance (1 minute walk) and to bus stops on Kingston Road (3 minutes). Four 7 kW Type 2 EV chargers are available on a pay-as-you-go basis near the trolley bays. Weekly sweeping and monthly hedge trimming preserve a clean retail environment.
