What we do (and who it suits)
Join Veritas Hire rents PHV cars to working drivers who need something reliable for day-to-day private hire work in Greater Manchester.
This page is for Wolverhampton-badged drivers doing airport runs (Manchester Airport and the surrounding areas). If you’re regularly on early shifts, late finishes, or doing pre-booked airport jobs, having the right type of car matters more than fancy extras.
Airport-run reality: what drivers usually prefer
Airport work often means motorway miles, stop-start queues, and sitting in holding areas.
- Drivers usually ask for comfortable saloons that are easy on fuel for longer runs.
- Plenty prefer automatic for the terminal loops and traffic around the M56/M60.
- A tidy, sensible car helps with luggage and the steady stream of short trips after drop-offs.
Eligibility rules (badge + where you live)
Badge: We only rent to licensed PHV drivers with badges from Wolverhampton, Sefton, Trafford, Knowsley, or Manchester councils.
Where you can work: You can work in Manchester/Greater Manchester even if your badge is from one of the other accepted councils.
Where you live: We only rent to drivers who live within about 50 miles of Manchester/Salford. If you live further than that, we won’t be able to offer a rental.
Vehicles you can expect (examples)
We provide practical PHV saloons suitable for Uber and Bolt. Examples of the kind of cars we may have include:
- Toyota Prius
- Skoda Octavia
- Kia Ceed
- Similar private hire-friendly saloons
If you’ve got a preference (automatic, hybrid, boot space for airport luggage), tell us when you get in touch and we’ll talk you through what’s available.
What to have ready (so we can check you fast)
- Your badge council (e.g., Wolverhampton)
- Your home postcode (to confirm the ~50-mile rule)
- A quick note on how you work: airport runs, days/nights, Uber/Bolt
- Any must-haves (automatic, hybrid, larger boot)
Next steps
Message or call with your badge council and home postcode. We’ll confirm eligibility first, then you can decide if you want to go ahead.
If you’re mainly doing Manchester Airport runs, mention your typical shift times and whether you prefer automatic/hybrid, and we’ll keep it practical.
