I will contact the customer before the trip to ask where they want to be picked up from. I will describe my vehicle and suggest that they arrive 10 minutes before. If they are close to one of the suggested pick up points I would be very grateful if they could make their way there. Cardiff has a lot of pedestrianized areas and a lot of places where it is difficult or impossible to pull up a large vehicle. It can also be very busy. The places that I have suggested are easy for me to use.
