    Sittingbourne has had a massive facelift, with a new cinema complex, multistorey carpark, even the stations Hackney carriage area has had a facelift. To be able to drop off and pick up from here the car has to be a Hackney carriage, and have paid over £200 station rights per year per car. iCars doesn't wish to take part in this extortionate charge.

    So we pickup our customers from the pickup area just inside the car park on the left, where it says Pickup and drop off on the road.

    It is a short walk from the station forecourt. If you have mobility issues, please let the controller know on booking so we can endeavour to make the transition easier.

    Please help us to help you by waiting in the right area.

    For many people who use a wheelchair, a simple task such as going shopping or to a Dr's appointment is a nightmare, bus services on the island are patchy at best, and the only other option would be to book a taxi and ensure there was enough space in the boot of the car for the wheel chair, and ask for assistance to get out of the chair and into the vehicle, and that’s assuming they can transfer, these sort of obstacles can take away peoples independence, if your wheelchair bound, then the anchors are well laid into the ground preventing users from getting out and enjoying the area!

    ​

    From day one that has been something Neil and Jan have wanted to change and something they have acted on, as a result iCars have several vehicles available to customers, and since they have come into use we have a legion of delighted customers, we have eliminated the indignity of transferring a customer from their chair into a car, now the car pulls up the ramp slides out and in you go, travelling in your own chair, and there is no extra charge for this service!
