The service
UK long distance taxi — door-to-door, any distance
A long distance taxi is a pre-booked, fixed-price private hire journey between cities — anything beyond about 25–30 miles. Instead of trains with changes and luggage racks, you're collected at your door and delivered to your exact destination, at your chosen time, with your bags in the boot the whole way.
RushXO runs long distance and intercity taxi transfers across England, Wales and Scotland, 24 hours a day. Core coverage runs from London, Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted and Luton outward to every major UK city — and we regularly carry passengers on 200–500 mile journeys including London to Manchester, London to Edinburgh, and cross-country routes the railways don't serve directly.
Every journey is fixed-price at booking: the fare covers the driver, fuel and door-to-door service. No meter running in traffic, no surge at busy times, no surcharge for nights, weekends or bank holidays. On journeys over two to three hours, comfort stops at motorway services are included at no extra cost.
Why RushXO
Built for the long haul
Long journeys demand a committed driver, a prepared vehicle and a price that won't move. That's exactly what we do.
Fixed at booking
No meter, no surge, no night, weekend or bank-holiday surcharge. Traffic and comfort stops never change your fare.
Motorway specialists
Drivers who know the M1, M6, M4, M40 and A1(M) — and the diversions when there's disruption.
No luggage limits
Your bags travel with you in the same vehicle. MPVs take 8 large cases; the minibus more still.
TfL licensed
Private Hire Operator licence 11588. Drivers contracted to RushXO — not a gig-economy app pool.
24/7 UK dispatch
Call any hour and reach a UK-based controller, not an overseas call centre. Overnight journeys welcome.
Comfort built in
Climate control, USB charging, bottled water and free comfort stops on longer routes. Your time back.
