Taxi Woodley Reading: Pre-Booked Rides From RG5
Nationwide Cars runs pre-booked taxis from Woodley, the RG5 town three to four miles east of Reading along the A4 London Road. Whether you’re setting off from the Crockhamwell Road shopping precinct or from your own front door, we collect you at the address you give us and take you where you need to go, day or night.
Woodley has aviation in its bones. The former Miles Aircraft factory and Woodley Aerodrome site is part of the town’s story, and it was at the Woodley airfield in 1931 that Douglas Bader lost his legs in a flying accident. So it suits us that airports are a big part of what we do: Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Stansted and London City, all bookable from Woodley.
We’re based in Reading and have been on the road for over 10 years, with nearly 5,000 happy customers and more than 25,000 miles driven. You book, we confirm your fare, and a driver turns up.
