A new town near Stansted
Harlow is a post-war new town in Essex, just over the Hertfordshire border, known for the many public sculptures dotted around its streets and the green wedges that separate its neighbourhoods. The Water Gardens sit in the town centre, Harlow Town station has trains to Liverpool Street and Cambridge, and the Princess Alexandra Hospital serves the wider area. We collect from homes, the station and the hospital.
Stansted is roughly 30 minutes from Harlow on clear roads, one of the quickest airport runs we do. Luton Airport is about 37 minutes, Heathrow around 49 and Gatwick close to 1h 02m. We track your flight on the way home, and you pay no extra if it lands late.
Appointments at the Princess Alexandra Hospital are a common Harlow booking, along with station drop-offs and family visits across the border in Hertfordshire. For London, King's Cross is about 40 minutes on clear roads, often easier than a change of trains.
