Car Hire at Liverpool Hunt's Cross Station

Part of our guide to car hire in Liverpool.

How to Find Your Car Hire Desk at Liverpool Hunt's Cross Station

• Book through eCarBookers first: Your booking confirmation from eCarBookers locks in your price and your vehicle class before you arrive. You pay the balance at the desk on collection, and the terms confirmed at booking are the terms you receive. Always confirm your hire in advance to guarantee your price from the moment you collect the keys.
• Where the branch is: Both suppliers list this pick-up as Liverpool Hunt's Cross Station, with a branch address of 25 Goodlass Road, Liverpool, L24 9HJ, in the Speke area on the southern edge of the city. Hunt's Cross railway station lies in the south-east of Liverpool, so the listed address and the station are not the same site.
• Where the desk is: One listing asks you to call the branch at least 15 minutes before you arrive so that a representative can meet you. The exact meeting point and arrangement for your hire are shown on your booking voucher, which is the definitive source, so check it before you travel and follow it on arrival.
• Opening hours: The listings show the branch open from 08:00 to 18:00 every day. Plan your arrival inside those hours, and confirm the hours for your date in your booking confirmation.
• Arriving by train: Hunt's Cross station is served by Merseyrail's Northern Line, with trains from Southport via Liverpool Central about every 15 minutes from Monday to Saturday and half-hourly on Sundays. Northern also runs an hourly service between Liverpool Lime Street and Warrington Central. The station has a small car park.
• What to bring: The main driver should carry a valid driving licence, photo identification and a credit card in their own name with a limit high enough to cover the excess hold. Visitors from outside the UK should also carry their passport and, where required, an international driving permit. UK licence holders may be asked for a DVLA check code, and the driver age range is shown in your booking confirmation.

Pick-Up, Drop-Off, and Refuelling at Liverpool Hunt's Cross Station

• Returning the car: Return the car within the branch's opening hours shown in your booking confirmation, and confirm the drop-off instructions with the supplier at collection. A key drop box for out-of-hours returns has not been confirmed for this branch, so ask what arrangement applies if your return falls outside those hours.
• Nearest petrol stations: BP Speke (Speke Hall Road, L24 9HD) and Go Garston Way (Garston Way, L19 2JA) are both listed as open 24 hours a day. Refuel before you return the car, and allow time to do so before the branch closes.
• Fuel policy: Confirm the fuel type shown on your booking confirmation before you refuel, and ask at collection which fuel policy applies to your hire, so that you return the car as the supplier expects.
• Before you drive away: Photograph the vehicle thoroughly at collection and again at return, including all four sides, the wheels, the windscreen and the interior. Dated photographs give you a clear record of the condition you received.
• Driving around the branch: Goodlass Road lies in the Speke industrial area, close to Speke Boulevard (A561) and the airport. Set the satnav before you move off, and allow extra time on weekday mornings and late afternoons.
• Clean air zones and tolls: Liverpool has no charging Clean Air Zone, no ULEZ and no Congestion Charge. The Mersey Tunnels to the Wirral are tolled, with a Class 1 toll of £2.40 from 1 April 2026, paid at the AUTO lanes, and an unpaid toll carries a £16 administrative charge if it is still outstanding after 14 days.
