Taxi and car service between Westchester and New York

Westchester is the county directly north of the Bronx, and its southern towns are closer to Midtown than parts of Brooklyn. That makes it a natural place for a prearranged car: a short hop into the city, a comfortable run to an airport, or a late return from Manhattan that the last convenient train does not cover. TaxiService.nyc prices these trips on the exact addresses and agrees the total before the car leaves.

Bookings tend to fall into airport runs to JFK, LaGuardia, Newark and Westchester County Airport, evening rides into Manhattan, corporate travel from headquarters in White Plains and Purchase, and family events in the villages along the Hudson and Long Island Sound.

Distances from the main Westchester towns

The figures below are rounded road distances to Midtown Manhattan, with the airport that generally suits each town. They indicate the length of the trip; they do not set your price.

Town To Midtown Manhattan Usually closest airport
Yonkers about 15 miles LaGuardia
Mount Vernon about 15 miles LaGuardia
New Rochelle about 18 miles LaGuardia
Scarsdale about 22 miles Westchester County (HPN)
White Plains about 25 miles Westchester County (HPN)
Tarrytown about 27 miles Westchester County (HPN) or Newark
Rye about 28 miles Westchester County (HPN)
Armonk about 38 miles Westchester County (HPN)

Roads and bridges

Westchester's routes run north to south. The Hutchinson River Parkway and the Bronx River Parkway lead toward the Bronx, the Saw Mill River Parkway follows the Hudson side, and Interstate 95 serves the Sound shore. Further west, the Major Deegan Expressway and the Henry Hudson Parkway lead into Manhattan, and the Cross County Parkway links east and west across the county.

Several of these parkways are limited to certain vehicle types, so a larger vehicle may need a different route from a sedan, and the route matters for timing. We confirm the route for the assigned vehicle and say so in the quote, so you do not discover it at the kerb. At rush hour, the Hutchinson and the Cross Bronx approaches are the usual bottlenecks.

Yonkers and White Plains car service

Yonkers borders the Bronx, so many trips are short city runs. The Saw Mill River Parkway and the New York State Thruway run north–south through it, and the Major Deegan continues into Manhattan. From the waterfront or Getty Square, Midtown is usually 30 to 50 minutes, and LaGuardia 25 to 40.

White Plains is the county seat and its business centre, with the courts, the office towers around Main Street and Mamaroneck Avenue, and a Metro-North station. It sits where I-287 meets the Bronx River Parkway and the Hutchinson, and it is ten to fifteen minutes from Westchester County Airport. Midtown is usually 40 to 60 minutes away, longer at rush hour.

For both, give us the building and the street. Office campuses and apartment complexes often have several entrances.

Westchester County Airport and the New York airports

Westchester County Airport sits in Harrison, a short drive from most of the county. Drive times, terminal and FBO pickups, and how it compares with LaGuardia are on our Westchester County Airport (HPN) page. For flights from the major New York airports, LaGuardia is the closest from the southern towns, and our LaGuardia airport page covers terminals and pickup rules.

JFK and Newark are a longer haul from Westchester. For JFK the route runs through the Bronx and Queens, and for Newark it crosses the George Washington Bridge. See the JFK page and the Newark page for the airport side of each trip, and give yourself extra time on both.

Corporate and group travel

Westchester has a large corporate base, and a booked car is often the easiest way to move a visiting executive from an office park to an airport or to Midtown. Our corporate transportation page covers account bookings, multi-stop schedules and roadshows. For a group going to a wedding or event, a Sprinter carries up to 14 and the group transportation page sets out how we plan the passenger and luggage mix.

Weddings, proms and nights out

For a wedding, a prom or a group night in the city, the car usually stays with you for several hours. Those bookings, including estate driveways, school prom rules and how the parkways affect stretch limousines and Sprinters, are covered on Westchester limo service.

Your questions, answered

Do you serve Westchester County?

Yes. We book rides between Westchester towns and every New York City borough, to Westchester County Airport in Harrison, and to JFK, LaGuardia and Newark. Send the full street address, because a town name alone covers too much ground to price accurately.

Do you cover Westchester County Airport?

Yes, for airline and private flights. Our HPN page has the drive times from each town, how terminal and FBO pickups work, and when HPN is a better choice than LaGuardia.

What is the best way from Westchester to JFK?

By car, the usual route is south through the Bronx and across the Whitestone or Throgs Neck bridge, then along the Van Wyck Expressway. It is a long trip that rewards an early start, and we plan the pickup backward from the airline's recommended arrival time.

Is a car better than Metro-North from Westchester?

For one person heading to Grand Central, the train is hard to beat. A car makes more sense for an airport run with luggage, a late-night return, a family or group, or an address away from a station. Compare the quote with the train fare plus the cost of reaching both stations.

Do you also run limousines in Westchester?

Yes. Stretch limousines, SUVs and Sprinter limos for weddings, proms and nights out are covered on our Westchester limo service page, including venue driveways and how the parkway rules affect larger vehicles.
