On-demand apps apply surge pricing that peaks exactly when you most need to travel — early mornings, late nights, holiday weekends and bad weather. A RushXO fare does the opposite: calculated on genuine road distance, quoted as a single fixed figure at booking, and never altered. No surge multiplier, no peak uplift, no night premium, no Bank Holiday surcharge. Whatever the traffic does, the driver absorbs the delay; your fare does not move.
Chatham is the largest of the Medway towns in north Kent, about 30 miles east of central London on the M2 and A2, famous for its Historic Dockyard and long naval heritage. Grown together with Rochester, Gillingham and Strood into a single Medway conurbation, it shares the ME4 postcode and centres on a busy High Street, the regenerated waterfront and the Dockside Outlet. Its position on the M2 with fast links to the M25 makes Chatham well placed for transfers to the London stations, the airports and the Channel ports. We collect door-to-door from anywhere across the town and the Medway towns, plan the timing around your service, and lock the price at booking.
Rochester is a historic cathedral city on the east bank of the River Medway in Kent, one of the Medway towns about 30 miles east of London on the A2. Dominated by its great Norman castle keep and second-oldest cathedral in England, with a Victorian High Street rich in Charles Dickens associations, it sits beside Chatham and Strood. We take you door-to-door to any address across the city and its Medway surroundings.

For families and groups the journey is far simpler in one vehicle than split across cars or managed by public transport with its changes. A single RushXO MPV or 8–9-seater carries everyone and all the luggage door-to-door for one fixed fare — frequently cheaper per head than the alternatives, and far less stressful with children or early starts. Child seats and boosters are provided free on request; just tell us the ages and number of children at booking.

You receive the driver's name, number, and the vehicle's make, model and registration before pickup. A female chauffeur can be requested for lone or late-night travellers, at no surcharge.
