PRE-BOOKED STATION TRANSFERS

SE11 to London Paddington private hire

Pre-book a car from Kennington or Oval, planned around your train and luggage. Request a quote based on your journey and vehicle, or call our 24-hour office on 020 8870 8888.

PLAN YOUR ARRIVAL

Arrive ready for your train

Agree a station arrival target before your train departs, allowing time to reach your departure area and for any assistance you need.

Agree the drop-off approach

London Paddington is on Praed Street, W2 1HQ. The APCOA car-park entrance on Bishops Bridge Road is separate from the rank approach, and station drop-off guidance says waiting is not permitted. Agree the road approach with our office.

Plan station assistance

Paddington lists a staffed assistance drop-off point on the deck above platform 12. If you need help inside the station, arrange it with your train operator, preferably in advance, and discuss your drop-off and arrival target with our office.

YOUR DOOR-TO-STATION JOURNEY

A pickup that starts in SE11

A pre-booked car can collect you from your address in Kennington or Oval, so you do not first have to make your way to an Underground station with your luggage. You will still need to allow time to get from the Paddington drop-off to your departure area.

Give the office your train departure and the earlier time you want to reach the station. If your pickup address has access restrictions, discuss a practical meeting point with us.

VEHICLE CHOICE

Room for your party and luggage

Discuss a saloon, estate or MPV for your journey, or ask about executive, minivan and luxury options. A six-passenger vehicle is an option for groups; ask the office about seven- or eight-passenger vehicles.

Tell us how many people are travelling and the number and size of cases and cabin bags, along with any pushchair, folding wheelchair or unusual item. The office can agree a suitable vehicle for the combined load.

A SEPARATE RETURN

London Paddington back to SE11

A return collection is arranged separately, with its own meeting point. Give the office your arriving train operator and service, its origin, travel date and expected arrival time, plus a contact number for the traveller. The office will agree where to meet you at Paddington.

If your train is delayed or your exit changes, contact KB Cars on 020 8870 8888 and agree the revised arrangement. A separate return does not automatically reserve the outward driver or vehicle; waiting or changes can affect the cost.

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions about your station transfer

The details that help you plan your car and onward train.

What do you need for a quote?

The quote is based on your exact journey, vehicle and any agreed extras. Send your full SE11 pickup address, destination, date and time, passenger numbers and luggage. Include your train service, departure and requested station-arrival time, and tell us about any extra stop.

What if I need help inside the station?

Arrange station assistance separately with your train operator; booking the car does not arrange it. Tell our office about your mobility and boarding needs, any folding wheelchair and an accompanying carer when arranging the car.

Guidance to the car and loading ordinary bags or a folding wheelchair are free when arranged in advance. Please tell us about the help you need; this does not limit any assistance a driver is legally required to provide. An additional escort inside a building is assessed separately, with arrangements and any cost agreed. KB does not currently have wheelchair-accessible vehicles.

Does the transfer include my onward ticket?

Your car journey and rail ticket are separate bookings. Keep the service details to hand so the transfer can be arranged around the right departure.

When is my car booking confirmed?

Your booking is confirmed when KB sends confirmation by SMS and/or email. An enquiry, quote or payment alone is not confirmation of a car.
