Pre-booked Sway pickups
Sway Taxi & Private Hire
Arrange a private hire pickup from Sway station, a village address, holiday property or local venue. King Taxi serves Sway from Brockenhurst by advance booking, with availability and fare confirmed before travel.
Advance booking and availability
We do not claim to have a car permanently stationed in Sway. Provide enough notice for a driver to be allocated, especially for an early train, evening return or time-critical connection.
Based in Brockenhurst, covering the New Forest
1 Sutton Place, Brockenhurst. We collect from every village in the forest, not just the base.
Licensed private hire operator
Licence 225, held by King Transfer, issued by New Forest District Council.
DBS checked drivers
Drivers are licensed by the council and enhanced DBS checked as a condition of that licence.
Fully insured
Private hire insurance is held on the vehicles we operate.
11+ active vehicles
Saloons, estates and six seaters, so a group booking does not usually depend on one car being free.

Sway station and village pickups
For a station collection, send the train time and direction of travel as well as the destination. A working mobile number is important if the service is delayed or the meeting point needs to be clarified.
Village addresses can be close together while their entrances are not. Include the house or accommodation name and full postcode, and add access details for an unmarked lane, gate or shared drive.
Plan the return, not only the outward trip
Sway journeys often form one link in a longer day: a station arrival, an appointment in Lymington or an evening elsewhere in the forest. Requesting all known legs together makes it possible to check the complete schedule and quote the right vehicle.
A pickup is only reserved after the quote has been accepted and availability confirmed. Sending a form does not create an automatic booking, and an outward booking does not hold a car for an unspecified return.
Travelling from Sway to an airport?
Airport journeys have different timing, luggage and terminal requirements. Use the dedicated transfer page for that request.
