CLEAR BEFORE YOU TRAVEL
How our fares work
A published fixed fare comes first. For journeys without one, this is our guide to the pricing.
Usually the meter
Shorter journeys normally use the local meter tariff unless we agree a fixed fare. Any website meter estimate is a guide: waiting and traffic can affect the final metered fare.
See the meter tariffs →£2.80 per road mile
For an unlisted destination, the mileage estimate uses the road route from our Seaford Station base to your destination. Pickup positioning and extra stops may be added, depending on your route.
For example, a 50-mile Seaford-base route has a £140 base estimate, before any applicable additions. This is an illustration, not a quote for a particular destination.
A personal quote
We’ll look at the route, timing, pickup and any stops, then agree the fare with you. Send the details or call us to discuss the trip.
Pickup points and extra stops
If we need to travel off your main route to reach the pickup, positioning is £3 per one-way road mile. Within one road mile of the route, there is no positioning charge; beyond that, the full measured distance applies.
Extra stops on the route or within half a road mile have no off-route charge. Further away, the full one-way off-route distance is £3 per mile. We’ll confirm any additions and the total before booking.
Distances use road routes. Short journeys outside the normal local pricing area, complex trips, festive dates and unusual arrangements need a personal quote.
