Peckham Minicabs cover the SE15 postcode around Rye Lane, Peckham Rye Park and Bellenden Road. The area has grown significantly busier over the past decade, and our drivers plan pickup timing around Rye Lane's market stalls and bus congestion rather than assuming a quiet residential street experience throughout the whole postcode at every hour of the day.
Heathrow from Peckham typically takes 50 to 60 minutes off-peak via the South Circular and A4, or the A202 and A3 depending on conditions. It's a genuine cross-town run, so we build in a realistic buffer rather than a tight estimate, particularly given how variable the South Circular can be at almost any time of day, not just during the obvious rush-hour windows.
Gatwick is a more direct option, usually 40 to 50 minutes via the A202 and A23, heading south from the start rather than fighting central London traffic. This tends to be the more reliable of the two major airport runs from Peckham, particularly for early departures when the roads are otherwise quiet.
Luton and Stansted both mean longer cross-London journeys via the M25, typically 70 to 80 minutes, quoted as flight-tracked fixed prices given how much the exact route depends on traffic. London City is a reasonable option via the A202 and A2 for business travellers doing a same-day return.
Every quote is fixed at booking, and because Gatwick is the more direct route from Peckham, that particular journey is usually priced more competitively than the longer Heathrow, Luton and Stansted runs, with no surcharge for busy Rye Lane pickups or the exact pickup address.
On arrivals we track your flight and meet you inside the terminal, adjusting automatically for early or late landings without any extra charge for the wait, whichever airport you're flying back into.
Saloons cover most solo and two-passenger Gatwick trips, while estates and MPVs suit family groups or the longer Heathrow, Luton and Stansted runs where extra luggage space matters more, particularly for family holidays with multiple suitcases and hand luggage.
This makes particular sense for regular Gatwick travellers — the A202/A23 link is more direct than fighting through central London, and drivers who know Rye Lane's market rhythm can save real time getting clear of Peckham before the airport run even starts. That same knowledge carries over to the longer Heathrow, Luton and Stansted runs too.
