Liverpool to North West Transfers — Pre-Booked, Fixed Fare
Picks Travel Ltd is a licensed private hire operator based in Liverpool, Merseyside, providing pre-booked Liverpool to North West transfers with fixed fares, named drivers and real-time flight monitoring.
Founded in 2019 by Ian Pickstock and licensed by Liverpool City Council under operator licence PHO0101, we carry passengers from Liverpool and across Merseyside to every corner of the North West — from Manchester Airport and Preston city centre to Blackpool seafront and the Lake District gateway at Lancaster.
Every Liverpool to North West transfer we operate is private, pre-planned and confirmed before you travel. Your fare is agreed at the point of booking and never changes on the day — not because of traffic, time of day, demand, or anything else.
A specific, DBS-checked, Liverpool-licensed driver is allocated to your journey in advance. The day before you travel, you receive a reminder confirming your driver's name, vehicle details and exact pickup time.
We cover all major towns and cities across Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Cheshire, Cumbria and the Fylde Coast from our Merseyside base — 24 hours a day, every day of the year, including Bank Holidays, Christmas and New Year.
Liverpool to North West Transfer Prices
All Liverpool to North West transfer prices are guide fares based on distance from Liverpool city centre. Your exact fixed fare is confirmed at the point of booking and depends on your precise pickup address, vehicle type and passenger count. Prices never change on the day.
