Pick-up in Hackney, drop-off at Reading
Pick-up is anywhere in the London Borough of Hackney: your home, a hotel, an office or a station, with the driver named the day before and a text when the car is outside. At the other end we drop at the address you give us in Reading: a hotel, the station, an office or a family home, with the driver checking the best route on the day. Coming back, the same fixed fare applies and the driver meets you at the door.
Allow 73-106 min for the 46-mile drive. For a fixed start time we build in a buffer and confirm the pick-up time with you.
Reading to Hackney: the return leg
Reading to Hackney is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. Pick-ups at an airport, station or venue are tracked and met at the agreed point with waiting time included, so a delay never changes the price. Book both legs together and the return is 1.8 times a single; if plans change, one message moves the booking.
Why book a car from Hackney to Reading rather than the train
Door to door from Hackney with the luggage in the boot, no change at a London terminus, no rail-replacement bus on a Sunday and one price for up to four people in a saloon or eight in a minibus. For business travel the fare is a fixed line on the expense claim; for a family it is usually cheaper than four rail tickets bought on the day.
