Matchday at Molineux: Your Wolves Taxi Game Plan

There is nothing like a night game under the lights at Molineux, right up until the final whistle when thirty thousand people all try to leave at once. Matchday travel is the difference between a great evening and a frustrating one, and after more than three decades running Wolves fans to and from the ground we know exactly how to make it painless. Here is how to plan it.

The official taxi of Wolves since 1991

We are proud to be the official taxi service of Wolverhampton Wanderers FC, a partnership that goes all the way back to 1991. That is not just a badge on the website. It means our drivers know the streets around Molineux inside out, they know which approaches jam solid an hour before kickoff, and they know the quiet pickup points that get you away quickly when everyone else is stuck.

Being a family-run local firm, matchday is in our blood. Plenty of our drivers are Wolves fans themselves, so you are in good company on the way to the ground.

Pre-book, always

The single most important piece of advice for matchday is simple: book your return before the game, not after it. The moment the whistle blows, demand across the whole city spikes, and if you wait until you are standing outside the ground in the cold you will be waiting a while behind everyone with the same idea.

When you pre-book through the app, you lock in a car for your chosen time and pickup point. Book the outbound leg to drop you close to the ground before the crowds build, and book the return for shortly after full time from a spot away from the immediate crush. It takes thirty seconds and it is the difference between a five minute wait and a forty minute one.

Where to get picked up

The roads immediately around Molineux get closed or clogged on matchday, so the smart move is a pickup point a short walk from the ground where a car can actually reach you. When you book, our dispatch team will suggest a sensible meeting spot based on the fixture and the expected crowd. A few principles we always follow:

• Walk two or three minutes away from the stadium to a clearer road rather than expecting a car on the doorstep of the turnstiles.
• Agree the exact pickup point when you book so there is no confusion in a crowd of thousands.
• For big European or cup nights, allow extra time, the whole city centre fills up and the road network slows right down.
• Travelling as a group? Tell us the numbers so we send the right vehicle first time.

Getting to the ground from your area

Wherever you are watching from, we cover the run in. We pick up right across the Wolverhampton borough, from Wednesfield and Ashmore Park to Bushbury, Fallings Park and the city centre. You can see the full list of areas we serve on our areas we cover page. Give us your postcode and kickoff time and we will get you to Molineux with time for a pint before the teams come out.

More than just the football

Our connection to the club goes beyond ferrying fans about. We are a supporter of the Wolves Foundation, the club's charity arm that does genuinely brilliant work across the community. When you ride with us on matchday, you are backing a local firm that puts something back into the city the club represents.

So next time there is a game on, do future-you a favour. Open the app or call 01902 305 333, book the car there and back before kickoff, and spend the evening thinking about the football instead of the journey home. Come on you Wolves.
