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.

The Heathrow Travelodge has rooms available from ?39 - lower than any taxi fare I believe and offering the chance of a good night's kip and a decent waking hour, well worth considering if one hasn't anything going on the night before.

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.

    • Hi Merry Christmas no joy with that Paul Hackett email thanks 
    • Miss Robson is the last of the old school independent vets. All the chains are have seriously hiked their prices over the last few years which now makes pet ownership only possible for the wealthy few. Even with pet insurance -( which often excludes items or has ‘deductibles’ ) it is just so much money. A visit with some medication is often £150 - £200. The vets themselves are excellent. 
    • Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
