KB CARS · PRIVATE HIRE
Pre-book a car from your Wallington or Hackbridge address to Paddington, planned around your train. Request a quote based on your journey and vehicle needs, or speak to our 24-hour office.
BEFORE YOU TRAVEL
Choose a station-arrival target before your train departs, allowing time to get inside and reach your departure area.
Tell the office your train operator, service and requested station-arrival time, rather than just the departure time. Paddington is on Praed Street; the car park entrance on Bishops Bridge Road is separate from the station's rank approach. Station drop-off guidance says waiting is not permitted.
Paddington lists a staffed assistance drop-off point above platform 12. Arrange station assistance with your train operator, preferably in advance, and tell our office about your mobility needs so we can plan the car journey.
YOUR LOCAL PICKUP
SM6 covers Wallington and Hackbridge, which have different rail stations. A pre-booked KB Cars journey starts at your chosen address, so you do not need to get yourself and your luggage to a local station first. You will still need to make your way inside Paddington to your onward departure area.
If you are connecting to Heathrow, Paddington has Heathrow Express and Elizabeth line services. Give the office your onward service and preferred station-arrival time when planning the car journey.
ROOM FOR YOUR JOURNEY
Discuss a saloon, estate or MPV with the office, or ask about executive, mini van and luxury options. A six-passenger vehicle is a group option; enquire about seven or eight-plus passengers. We will consider the whole party and its luggage together, rather than seat count alone.
Tell us the number and size of suitcases and cabin bags, and about pushchairs, folding wheelchairs or unusual items. An accompanying carer also needs a seat.
RETURN TO SM6
Arrange your Paddington-to-SM6 return separately. Give the office your arriving train operator and service, date, expected arrival time and a contact number; we will agree the car meeting point with you.
If your train or plans change, the booker or authorised contact should call the office on 020 8870 8888 to request a change. The office will confirm any accepted revised arrangement and applicable cost. A separate return does not automatically reserve the outward driver or vehicle; waiting or changes can affect the cost.
GOOD TO KNOW
The practical details for your journey and onward train.
The quote reflects your exact journey and vehicle needs. Send your full SM6 pickup address, destination, date, passengers and luggage, plus your train service and requested station-arrival time. Include any extra stop and return plans. KB Cars is registered with the ICO; our Privacy Notice explains how we handle your booking information.
An enquiry, quote or payment alone does not confirm a car. KB confirms a booking by SMS and/or email.
Railway assistance is a separate arrangement with your train operator; booking a car does not arrange it. Tell our office about your mobility needs too, including any accompanying carer or folding wheelchair.
We can arrange guidance to the car and loading of ordinary bags or a folding wheelchair without charge. If you need an extra escort inside a building, discuss the task and any cost with the office. KB does not currently have wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
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.
