Pick-up in Dover, drop-off at NEC Birmingham
Pick-up is at your door anywhere in Dover or the Kent towns and villages around it, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At NEC Birmingham we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for exhibitions and shows when the roads around the venue are closed.
The drive is about 182 miles; the driver checks closures and event-day traffic orders and picks the fastest route on the day, so the time above already allows for normal traffic.
NEC Birmingham to Dover: the journey home
NEC Birmingham to Dover is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. Book both legs together and the driver waits at the agreed meeting point at the end of exhibitions and shows, however late it runs; the driver takes you back to your door in Dover. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.
For the trip back to Dover, give us the pickup point at or near NEC Birmingham and a time; the fare is fixed when you book, not when you get in.
How much is a taxi from NEC Birmingham to Dover?
A saloon from NEC Birmingham to Dover is a fixed £465, the same as the Dover to NEC Birmingham fare, for about 182 miles. Booked together, both legs cost £837.
Event days at NEC Birmingham
For exhibitions and shows we plan around the venue, not the postcode: the drop-off point that is actually open, the corner we meet on afterwards, and a departure time that beats the car-park queue. An 8-seater takes the whole group from Dover for little more than two saloons, and a wait-and-return price keeps the same driver on site for the day. Late finishes are normal for us; the fare is the same at 1am.
