Alpha Cars Andover: taxi and private hire in North Hampshire

Alpha Cars Andover operates as a taxi and private hire company in Andover and the surrounding area. The company states that it has been active in the taxi industry in North Hampshire for more than 35 years and that it has recently launched its services in Andover. Its own presentation describes it as Andover's biggest and best taxi and private hire company, a claim attributed to the operator rather than an independent assessment.

The service is aimed at both the local community and businesses. The company presents reliability, driver standards and the use of technology to support drivers as the basis of its operation, and it maintains a 24-hour call centre for bookings.

Airport transfers and door-to-door transport

Alpha Cars Andover provides transport to and from all major UK airports, train stations and sea ports. According to the company, this is a full door-to-door service available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The airport transfer service is one of the main blocks of its offer alongside local journeys and wedding hire, which are listed among its services.

Corporate accounts and business transport

For companies, the operator offers a corporate priority account intended to cover business transport needs of any size. The company describes the scope as ranging from a basic taxi journey to an important delivery, presenting the account as a way to remove the logistical burden from the client.

Fleet, booking volume and safety measures

The company reports a fleet of 300 vehicles and more than 20,000 bookings a week, figures that correspond to its own description of the operation. It also states that all its cars have safety screens fitted to protect passengers, a measure linked in its communication to the COVID-19 pandemic. The company refers passengers and drivers to separate COVID-19 information for each group.

Booking channels and mobile app

Bookings can be made through the 24-hour call centre, online and through the company's mobile app, which it invites users to download. The call centre number is the same one used for general contact.

Location and coverage

The company is based at 9 Winchester St, Andover SP10 2EA, England, UK, and states that it serves Andover and the surrounding areas. Its activity is framed within North Hampshire, the area where it says it has been operating for more than three decades.
