Looking for taxi co reccomendations to Heathrow

Not a taxi company, but if you are able to drive, you might consider self-drive using ZipCar Flex. Loads of these cars around ED. They've recently made Heathrow T5 a drop-off zone - you park the car in the short term car park right next to the terminal. Cost (based on 7 trips I've made) is approx ?20 all-in, which is much less expensive than any taxi. Works the other way too (Heathrow to ED - park on the street).

Thanks, but it?s not for me and this person does not like driving in cities.

I always use the local Rye Cars - they are always on time, and good value

020 7732 7000


If I am travelling solo and can manage my luggage, then I catch public transport - which is really cheap and adds on very little time

I go from Brockley to Canada Water - then Jubilee Line to Green Park, then Picadilly line all the way to Heathrow.


There is also the trains from Paddington (and a slightly slower, (not the express) but cheaper train all the way to Heathrow.

    • FH is so much greener and IMO nicer than ED, sorry. Less commercialised.  The Great North Wood, Hornimans Gardens, Brenchley Gardens, One Tree Hill ) yep, some of that borders ED, so split between the two) 
    • Tesco sell pudding rice https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/254877391   And as for olive oil, my preference is the Spanish 2L cans in Sainsbury, it has a real nice peppery taste, not bland like the Italian one's I've tasted, but that's personal preference I suppose. 
    • It feels like a group who don't believe that private motoring should be discouraged and have no answers to the air quality problem, whereas the original Cleanairdulwich are campaigning to reduce pollution. Sadly we live in a world where if you are rich, you will generally live in nicer houses, have nicer environments and cleaner air.  That is capitalism for you, but I doubt whether there would be greater health equality in the former Soviet Union either.  Dulwich village was once full of industrialists and the like who didn't want to live in polluted central London where most would have made their money.  I will contact Cleanairdulwich and hopefully provide a better perspective.  Whether it is one individual or a whole community I support agree with what they are doing.  
    • ??? When they refer to "all Dulwich", I took that to mean including the residents of the streets where the traffic has been directed into due to the LTNs, which are presumably experiencing greater pollution/stress,  whereas the "privileged few" in the LTN areas are experiencing lower pollution due to less traffic. Hence the reference to inequality. Sorry if I've got the terminology wrong.
