Go Carz, Shropshire’s largest private hire and taxi firm, has joined forces with Diamond Cars to boost its offering in Telford and across Shropshire.

The joining of forces creates a 650 strong fleet of licensed vehicles in Telford.

Operating under the existing and well-known Go Carz brand, residents and businesses in Telford will benefit from increased capacity at peak times. The deal also helps the local driver-partners by reducing the dead-mileage between bookings and creates more opportunities to earn.

Passengers can still make a booking by using the existing telephone numbers for Diamond Cars. However, the Diamond Cars mobile app is no longer accepting bookings, passengers should now use the Go Carz mobile app.

Linda and Nigel Horler, the founders of Diamond Cars, will oversee the transition to Go Carz and retire after 31 years in the business. Whilst their son Dan, a driving force in the Diamond Cars business for many years, will join the Go Carz management team.

Graham Hoof, Regional Director, said: “We are delighted that Diamond Cars and Go Carz are joining forces and look forward to working with Dan. We now have more cars all operating from one system which means passengers in Telford can expect an even better service.”
