Your ride from Purmerend
Book a taxi from Purmerend to Schiphol with Schipholride for a fixed all-in price from €70 (Comfort); the 38 km trip takes around ±40 minutes outside rush hour. That price covers everything: VAT, luggage and the parking fees at Schiphol — nothing is added afterwards, not even at night. If you'd like more space or comfort, choose Premium (€85, Mercedes E-Class or similar), a Van for 5-8 people (€95) or VIP (€140, S-Class or similar). Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before departure. On the way back your flight is tracked live and you get 60 minutes of free waiting time after landing, so a delay costs you nothing extra. The driver picks you up in any neighbourhood of Purmerend, from Weidevenne to the Purmer.
From Purmerend you join the A7 towards Amsterdam almost immediately via the N244 or the Laan der Continenten. At the Zaandam interchange you switch to the A8, then via the Coenplein through the Coentunnel onto the A10-West ring road. At the De Nieuwe Meer interchange you change to the A4, which takes you straight to the Schiphol exit. Outside rush hour you cover those 38 km in roughly ±40 minutes. During the morning peak (broadly 07:00-09:00) the A7/A8 stretch towards the Coentunnel is the main bottleneck and travel time can rise to ±55 minutes; in the evening peak the same applies to the A10-West and the link onto the A4. The driver keeps an eye on current traffic and picks an alternative where needed, for example via the N235 past Ilpendam and Amsterdam-Noord if the A7 is gridlocked.
Pick-up in Purmerend
Schipholride arranges rides from all over Purmerend: Centrum, Overwhere, Wheermolen, De Gors, Purmer-Noord, Purmer-Zuid and Weidevenne, and also from Middenbeemster and the other Beemster villages within the municipality. When booking you simply give your home address; the driver is at your door at the agreed time. If you'd rather leave from a station, Purmerend, Purmerend Overwhere and Purmerend Weidevenne are all fine pick-up points with a clear set-down spot. For companies on De Koog or the Baanstee, collection at the office address is just as easy — handy for business travellers with an early flight.

You cover the 38 km via the A7, A8, A10-West and A4 in ±40 minutes outside peak times. During the morning and evening peak this can rise to ±55 minutes, mainly because of congestion towards the Coentunnel. The driver plans around the current traffic and can divert via the N235.
There's a direct train from Purmerend to Schiphol — so why take a taxi?+
True: from the three Purmerend stations a direct sprinter runs to Schiphol in just over half an hour. A taxi wins on door-to-door convenience: no hauling suitcases to the station, collection at home in for example Purmer-Noord or Weidevenne, and even at 04:30 you're at the airport on time. With 3-4 people the fixed price is quickly comparable too.
