Answer 2
Always check trip advisor for reliable & trustworthy companies first.
Also we had a right problem when we did not book but had to wait at the airport in Malaga for a taxi and the local taxi chaps were moaning at all of our luggage.
Have you tried www.solhop.com? They were really helpful with questions about all of our extra luggage and they contacted the driver to make sure he was waiting when we were running late. You will have to ask them directly for a quote, but you don't have to pay anything until they pick you up anyway.
