Before you travel

Good to know about Lime Street.

Where your driver meets you

Your chauffeur waits at the Lime Street forecourt, name board up, and takes the luggage from there. The exact spot is confirmed with your booking so there is no wandering the concourse.

Payment & accounts

Pay by card online, by cash to your driver, or on a corporate account with consolidated invoicing. The price you agree is complete — tipping is appreciated, never expected.

Tolls & charges included

Every road toll and pickup fee is built into the price we quote. What you agree is what you pay.

Nearest Underground

Connections here are the Merseyrail underground platforms here link the city and the Wirral. Useful for a light, single hop; with cases or a tight onward schedule, the car door-to-door usually earns its place.

When to book

Friday evenings and the first and last trains of the day are the busiest windows. Booking 24–48 hours ahead secures your preferred vehicle class; same-day is often possible.

Licensed, insured, vetted

Every driver is fully licensed private hire, insured and vetted, so the service reads the same wherever in the UK you are.

Off the train at Lime Street, into a waiting car

Liverpool Lime Street is served by avanti · northern · merseyrail, and the walk from platform to street is where a long journey either ends well or falls apart. A pre-booked chauffeur means no taxi queue and no last-minute price changes at the barrier — your driver is on the concourse with a name board before the train arrives, tracking the service rather than the timetable.

The booking works the way it should. The fare is fixed when you book, with tolls and pickup fees inside it. Delays are absorbed automatically — we watch the train and move the pickup to match, with 15 minutes of complimentary waiting on top. Luggage is handled, child seats on request (£8 each), and cancellation costs nothing up to 24 hours before pickup.

Transfers from Lime Street start at £47 for a saloon; estates, executive cars, MPVs and 8-seat vans are priced the same transparent way. It is typically 5–25 min across liverpool — door to door, one price, no meter running.

questions.

Anything else — call us any time on 020 8742 2888.

Where will I meet my driver at Lime Street?

At the Lime Street forecourt, holding a name board and ready to take the luggage. We confirm the exact spot with your booking.

How much is a Lime Street transfer?

Fixed fares from £47 for a saloon to Liverpool, confirmed before you book. Larger vehicles are priced up front too.

Can you help with mobility or heavy bags?

Step-free across the concourse. Tell us if you need assistance and the driver meets you at the most convenient point and handles the luggage.

When is Lime Street busiest?

The pinch is commuter peaks and event nights near the waterfront. Your driver knows the approaches at those hours and, with the train tracked, meets your real arrival rather than the timetable.

Do you provide child seats?

Yes — infant, child and booster seats on request (£8 each). Add them when you book.

How long does the journey take?

Typically 5–25 min across Liverpool, depending on your exact destination and the traffic.

Why book a car rather than take the tube?

Connections here are the Merseyrail underground platforms here link the city and the Wirral. Quick enough travelling light; with luggage, a group or a cross-city hop, the door-to-door car usually wins once you count the changes.
