Magnum Taxis

In Stoke-on-Trent, a journey may begin before dawn for an airport run or end late after a day at work. Magnum Taxis arranges rides around the clock and operates its booking center in the city. The company traces its roots to 1984 and handles both everyday trips and journeys that need more planning, from a local ride to a scheduled transfer beyond the city.

Customers can book by phone, through the website, in the app, or by chat. The app lets passengers request a car, track its progress, pay, and book again; it also keeps trip history and offers loyalty points or promotions. Digital bookings show a price before confirmation. The company says it honors that quote as long as details such as stops, route, or waiting time do not change.

For local rides, Magnum serves Stoke-on-Trent and nearby places including Hanley, Tunstall, Burslem, Longton, Fenton, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Wolstanton, Biddulph, Alsager, Crewe, Congleton, Sandbach, Kidsgrove, Leek, and Stone. Coverage extends across Staffordshire and parts of Cheshire, Shropshire, and Derbyshire. Availability depends on pickup, destination, time, and requested vehicle, particularly for trips outside the urban center.

Airport transfers are a major part of the service. The company lists connections to Birmingham, Manchester, and Liverpool, along with other UK airports on its FAQ page. It also offers executive rides in vehicles such as Mercedes, BMW, and Audi models; five- to eight-seat minibuses for groups; and business accounts with priority bookings, monthly invoicing, and dedicated account management.

The range also includes wheelchair-accessible vehicles, courier service, and a taxi option for NHS staff. Keele students can request a 5% discount on trips booked and paid for by card through the app, after signing up with a university email address and entering the company’s published code. Other passengers can see a fare by entering their journey or contacting the booking center.

Magnum Private Hire lists its office on Sandbach Road in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire ST6 2DU. The company identifies this as its operating base; passengers do not need to visit to arrange a ride. Phone, app, and online booking are available for immediate or scheduled trips, including group travel and airport connections. The firm also operates alongside its sister company, Autocab, in the local area.

For a family, a group of friends, or a work team, the practical choice is to match the vehicle to the trip: a local taxi, a group minibus, and an executive car are booked differently. The company recommends prebooking when arrival time matters, particularly for airports and events; the fare and vehicle type are confirmed during the request.
