Serving Billericay
Since 2000
Swift began as an independent private hire company in Billericay more than 26 years ago, and in 2023 joined two other long-running local operators under the Basildon Taxis Ltd group. The dispatch got smarter, the fleet got deeper, and the promise stayed put: the nearest car, a fixed rate, and a driver you can identify before you step outside.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to the questions we hear most.
Billericay first, always: it has been our patch for over 25 years. Around it we work Basildon, Wickford, Stock, Ingatestone, Brentwood, Laindon and the rest of south Essex daily, with fixed-quote runs to anywhere in the UK.
Three ways: the Swift Cars app on iPhone or Android, this website, or ringing 01277 757575, where our 24/7 office staff will help you. The app is the fastest and best way to book, with priority on app bookings: it quotes the fare, takes payment, and shows the car driving to you.
Local runs start at £3.80 plus roughly £2.20 a mile on the standard tariff, so a short hop across Billericay is typically a few pounds. Airports are fixed rates set when you book — from £48 to Southend and £117 to Heathrow. The app quotes your exact fare before you commit.
ASAP jobs go straight to the nearest free car, so it is usually minutes rather than a wait. Book on the app and you see the live ETA tick down on the map — or pre-book and the car arrives at the time you set.
Any date, any time. Tonight, next Thursday, or a 4.15am airport start in October. Pre-booking is the sensible move for flights and anything with a hard deadline.
Saved cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay in the app, chip & pin or contactless in the car, cash on local trips, and monthly accounts for businesses.
All of them, through Basildon Borough Council or Castle Point Borough Council, with DBS checks built into the licensing. The vehicles pass the same council inspections.
The dispatch office has not closed in years. Ring at 3am on Boxing Day and someone picks up and sends a car.
Book on the app and the assigned car appears on a live map with the driver's name, the vehicle make and model, its registration and a ticking ETA. Phone bookings get the car details sent by text.
Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton, City and Southend, all at fixed rates set when you book. All incoming flights are tracked with an hour of waiting included, and your driver contacts you the moment you land. Cruise terminals and Eurostar too.
Not on top, no. Where a route uses the crossing, the toll is already inside the quoted rate.
We do — minibuses that take up to 8 passengers plus luggage, ideal for airport runs and group nights out. Pick a minibus in the app or ask the office when you ring.
If you need a wheelchair-accessible vehicle, ring 01277 757575 and the office will do their best to arrange one — the more notice, the better. Assistance dogs travel free in every car.
