What we buy in Newcastle
The North East cab trade. We know it.
The North East fleet
Toyota Prius, Corolla Hybrid, Hyundai Ioniq and Hackney cabs run the Newcastle trade. High mileage on city and A1(M) work is normal for us. We check hybrid battery health at collection with OBD2. Mileage alone is not what we price against.
Clean Air Zone: £12.50 per shift
Newcastle's CAZ charges non-compliant vehicles £12.50 a day. At 5 shifts a week that's over £3,000 a year. We buy those cars at trade value for the export and out-of-CAZ market. Sell now and stop the bleed before it gets worse.
Free collection across NE postcodes
Free collection across all NE postcodes: Newcastle, Gateshead, Sunderland, South Shields, North Tyneside. Our North East route runs every 7 to 10 days, paired with the Edinburgh run. Usually 24 to 48 hours after you accept.

Common questions
What Newcastle drivers ask first.
Newcastle's CAZ charges £12.50/day for non-compliant taxis, what does that mean for my resale?+
Pre-Euro-6 diesel Hackneys and PHVs pay the CAZ charge every shift, roughly £3,750 a year at 5 days a week. Local resale on those cars dropped sharply through 2023. We pay trade value, not the depressed retail price. Sell now and recover most of the gap before the charges mount up further.
Do you collect across the North East, Gateshead, Sunderland, North Tyneside?+
Yes, free across NE1-NE99 plus Sunderland, South Shields and the wider Tyne and Wear region. Our North East route runs every 7 to 10 days, paired with the Edinburgh run, usually 24 to 48 hours after you accept.
I'm a Newcastle hackney plate-holder, do you handle the surrender paperwork?+
Yes. We need plate-removal confirmation from Newcastle City Council Licensing before settlement, and we can submit the surrender request for you. Add 5 to 7 working days for the paperwork. Your payment is still same-day on collection, whatever the council timeline.
Faster Payment to a Northern bank, any timing issues?+
None. Faster Payment is the same speed UK-wide. It clears into your account within 90 seconds, before the driver moves the vehicle.
