School Run Taxi Service
Safe, Reliable School Transport for Mid Sussex Families
Take the stress out of school runs with our professional, DBS-checked drivers. Perfect for busy parents, working families, and children attending schools outside catchment areas. Door-to-door service with term contracts available at discounted rates.
The School Run Solved
The daily school run can dominate family life - especially for working parents juggling drop-off times with office hours, or families with children at different schools with overlapping start times. Add in traffic around Haywards Heath at 8:30am, limited parking at school gates, and the impossibility of being in two places at once, and it's no wonder so many parents feel constantly stressed.
Our school run service removes this daily pressure entirely. We provide safe, reliable door-to-door transport for children across Mid Sussex, serving all major schools including Warden Park, Oathall, Burgess Hill Academy, Downlands in Hassocks, and independent schools like Ardingly College and Cumnor House. Every driver is DBS checked, experienced with child passengers, and understands the importance of punctuality - we've never made a child late for registration.
Particularly popular with families where children attend schools outside their catchment area, working parents who start before school drop-off time, single parents managing multiple children, and during temporary situations like a parent's hospital treatment or vehicle repairs. We offer term-time contracts (book once for the whole term) with 15% discount for regular bookings, or ad-hoc transport when needed.

Absolutely fantastic service under the new management! Booked a Gatwick airport transfer at 4am and the driver was already waiting. Immaculate car, very professional. Best taxi company in Haywards Heath by far.

Heathrow transfer was seamless. Driver tracked our flight and was there when we landed. Very comfortable car with plenty of room for luggage. Much better value than the other airport taxi firms.

New Year's Eve taxi booked weeks in advance and they were absolutely on time. No surge pricing nonsense like the apps. Honest, reliable, local business. Wouldn't go anywhere else.
