Close to our Croydon base
West Wickham is just over the border from Shirley, on the eastern edge of Croydon. That makes it one of the easiest areas outside the borough for us to cover. We do lots of local runs between West Wickham, Croydon and Beckenham, as well as longer airport transfers.
Airport transfers from BR4
Gatwick is a run across Croydon and down the A23 and M23. London City Airport is to the north-east, through Lewisham and across the river. Heathrow is the longest of the three. For early flights, book the day before and give us your flight number for the return. See our Croydon to Gatwick taxi page for terminal details.
Trains from West Wickham
West Wickham station is on the Hayes line, with trains into London Bridge and Charing Cross. For journeys with heavy luggage, or trains from other terminals, a taxi straight to the station can save a change. See our Croydon to Charing Cross taxi page.
Walks on the common
West Wickham Common and Hayes Common are great for walking, and lots of dog owners use them. Ask for our pet friendly taxi if your dog is coming.
Local trips around BR4
Many of our West Wickham journeys are short: to the station, to the High Street, to schools in the area or to see friends in Coney Hall and Hayes. Others head west into Croydon for shopping at the town centre or appointments at Croydon University Hospital. Short trips are booked in exactly the same way as airport runs, with a fixed fare agreed in advance.
Late-night returns
After an evening in Croydon or central London, book a car back to West Wickham rather than relying on the last train on the Hayes line.
Families and groups
For family holidays, a 6 seater taxi is a popular choice. Child seats are available on request.
