We turn up early
A taxi that arrives on time is doing the bare minimum. Our drivers aim to be outside five minutes before you asked.
About us
Your local taxi firm, in Wolverhampton
City Cars has been moving people around Wolverhampton and up and down the country for years — airport runs at four in the morning, school contracts at eight, and a minibus to Manchester on a Saturday night.
Our story
Built on airport runs and repeat customers
We started as a local firm doing what local firms do — short hops around Wolverhampton, school runs, the odd trip into Birmingham. What changed things was the airport work.
Once you have driven someone to Birmingham Airport at 3.30am and they have landed back safely a fortnight later to find the same driver waiting in arrivals, you tend to keep that customer. That is how the airport side of City Cars grew, and it is still the biggest part of what we do — along with everything that came with it: executive chauffeur work, minibuses for groups, courier runs and local authority contracts.
We are still a Wolverhampton firm. The phone is answered here, the drivers live here, and if something goes wrong you can speak to somebody who can actually do something about it.

How we work
Four things we don't compromise on
We quote straight
The price we give you is the price you pay. No traffic surcharge, no mysterious extras at the end of the journey.
We know our passengers
A lot of our work is the same faces every week — hospital runs, school contracts, the 5am Monday flight. That matters to us.
We take licensing seriously
Every driver is badged and DBS-checked, every vehicle is plated, inspected and insured. No shortcuts.
