Whiteside Taxis The company was founded by Thomas Whiteside in 1880 and is the oldest taxi company in England. The story goes that he won a horseโ€™s harness in a raffle. Annes.
(312)

Established in 1880, and successfully run by four generations of the Whitesides, we are a family owned company in Blackpool & Fylde with over 146 years' experience in offering the utmost customer care, comfort and reliability at competitive prices. He then borrowed a horse and cart from his uncle and started a haulage business and as the saying goes, the rest is historyโ€ฆ

Since those humble beginnings Whiteside Taxis has grown, and is the largest taxi company in the Fylde with our new purpose built offices situated in the heart of St.
