Drive with a local private hire firm

Chessington Airport Transfers is a local private hire service based in Chessington, KT9. We run fixed-fare journeys to the London airports and mainline stations, plus everyday local trips. As our customers grow, we are always happy to hear from reliable, friendly PCO drivers who know the area and take pride in good service.

Most of our work is pre-booked, so you know where you are going before you set off. Many jobs start or finish close to home, in places like Hook, Surbiton, Kingston upon Thames and Epsom.

The kind of work you will do

What you need to drive with us

To carry passengers with us you must be fully licensed to work in private hire in London. In practice that means:

  • A valid TfL private hire driver's licence (PCO licence).
  • A full UK driving licence with a good driving record.
  • A vehicle licensed by TfL as a private hire vehicle, clean and well kept.
  • Valid hire and reward insurance for the vehicle you drive.
  • A smartphone, good English and a polite, professional manner with passengers.
  • Good knowledge of local roads around Chessington, Kingston and north Surrey, and the main routes to the airports.

We will ask to see your licences and documents before you start, and we check they stay valid.

Why drivers choose us

We are a small local firm, so you deal with people who know you by name. Fares are agreed with the customer at booking, so there is no haggling at the kerb. Airport jobs are tracked against flight times, which means fewer wasted trips and less waiting around. And because we take bookings 24 hours a day, there is work early in the morning, through the day and late at night.

How to apply

There is no online form for driver applications. Instead, call us on 020 3198 8497 or email info@chessingtonairporttransfers.co.uk with:

  • Your full name and mobile number.
  • Your PCO licence number and expiry date.
  • Your vehicle make, model, year and number of seats.
  • The days and hours you would like to work.

We will get back to you to talk through the work and arrange the next steps. You can find out more about the team on our about us page.
