We have reached the era where transport can be booked with the tap of a button on our phones.

When making short and unplanned trips this method can prove not only practical but efficient. However, if you’re making regular trips for work or long-distance travel then booking transport at random may not be your best option.

When you find an independent private hire company that is trustworthy and reliable you not only have peace of mind, but it may even save you money in the long run.

To help you choose the best private car hire service we have put together some useful tips.

Reliability
Many services will describe themselves as reliable but there are ways you can tell. Look for all hour services, with well trained, experience drivers who are easy to get hold of. The cars should be clean and comfortable. Experience car hire services should have knowledge of the roads, usual traffic and be able to take that into account when setting off to collect you for your journey.

Variety of Services
It’s always advantageous to use a private hire car company that has a range of services. That way you can choose the same reliable service for all your travel needs. This can include business travel, personal, airport or seaport transfers and transport for students.

Competitive Prices

As with most services, you want to make sure you get what you pay for. Competitive pricing is always a priority for any private car hire service, but it’s important to remember that paying less for something isn’t always for the best. We advise you get a selection of quotes especially when travelling long distances.
