What Is a Wheelchair Accessible Taxi Liverpool (WAV)?
Our fleet consists of standard-fit Hackney black cabs licensed by Liverpool City Council. Every wheelchair accessible taxi Liverpool we provide is a standard vehicle equipped with manual ramps and designed primarily for manual wheelchairs.
📏 Standard Dimensions
We provide standard Liverpool Hackney vehicles. We do not provide technical assessments or measurements for specific chair models. It is the passenger's responsibility to ensure their equipment fits a standard taxi.
🏁 Manual Ramps
All boarding is via manual ramps. These are designed for manual wheelchairs and lightweight pavement scooters only. They are not hydraulic lifts.
⚠️ Headroom & Clearance
Roof heights are standard. We cannot guarantee clearance for high-seated or "tall" wheelchair setups. Booking is at the user's own risk.
How to Book a Wheelchair Accessible Taxi Liverpool
1. Request
Call 0151 459 0188. Please mention if you are using a manual wheelchair or a small Class 2 scooter specifically.
2. Confirm
We verify availability and provide your fixed fare quote immediately. No hidden charges or meters.
3. Board
Your driver arrives in a Hackney-style WAV and assists with boarding via the manual ramp system.
4. Pay
Pay by cash or card after your trip. You only pay the guaranteed fare confirmed during your initial booking.
⚠️ Mandatory "No-Fit" Payment Policy
As we are not medical transport specialists, we cannot advise if your specific equipment fits. By booking, you agree to:
- User Discretion: You must ensure your chair is compatible with a standard Liverpool Hackney cab. We do not carry large road-legal (Class 3) scooters or heavy powerchairs.
- Financial Commitment: If the vehicle arrives and cannot safely load the chair due to height, width, or weight, the £40 minimum fare is still 100% payable.
If you are in any doubt about your chair fitting a standard taxi, please do not book, as the call-out charge will still apply.
Wheelchair Accessible Taxi Liverpool FAQ
Do you provide accessibility transport in Liverpool?
Yes — We provide Hackney-licensed WAVs for manual wheelchairs and Class 2 scooters.
Picks Travel provides this service using traditional black cabs. Every vehicle in our fleet is equipped with manual ramps to ensure safe boarding for standard manual wheelchair users.
Can I send a photo or dimensions of my chair for you to check?
No — We cannot provide technical assessments of your equipment.
Our dispatch team cannot guarantee fit based on photos or measurements. We provide standard-fit Hackney taxis. If you are unsure if your chair fits a standard black cab, booking is at your own risk. The £40 minimum fare is still payable if the chair does not fit.
What happens if the vehicle arrives and my chair doesn't fit?
The £40 minimum fare remains 100% payable.
If a vehicle is dispatched and your equipment is too tall, wide, or heavy for a standard Hackney cab, the full minimum fare is collected to cover the driver's time and fuel. We do not provide refunds for "no-fit" scenarios caused by non-standard equipment.
Do you take large road-legal (Class 3) scooters?
Strictly No.
Large scooters with mirrors and indicators are too long and heavy for standard taxi ramps. We strictly only accommodate manual wheelchairs and small Class 2 pavement scooters.
Is the service fully licensed?
Fully Licensed & Insured Liverpool Operator.
Yes. Picks Travel Ltd operates under Liverpool City Council licence PHO0101. Our drivers are expertly trained in manual ramp boarding and passenger safety.
