Tolworth is a good place to run a taxi firm. The A3 runs through it, the Ewell Road heads north to Surbiton and south to Ewell and Epsom, and the A243 leads down to Chessington. Within fifteen minutes' drive, we can reach the towns of the Royal Borough of Kingston, the Elmbridge villages of Surrey, and the Sutton side of Worcester Park.
The areas below are where we collect most often. Each has its own page with local landmarks, station tips and advice for airport runs from that area.

Kingston and Surbiton
The closest areas to us are the neighbourhoods of the Royal Borough of Kingston. Surbiton and Berrylands are just to the north, Hook and Chessington to the south, and Kingston town centre a little further on. This is where we're busiest: station runs, school journeys and hospital trips every day.
The Maldens and Worcester Park
To the east, Old Malden borders Tolworth across the Hogsmill, with New Malden and Worcester Park beyond. New Malden's easy access to the A3 makes it a common starting point for Heathrow runs.
The Surrey villages and towns
West and south of us, across the Surrey border, are Long Ditton, Thames Ditton, Hinchley Wood, Esher and Claygate. To the south-east are Stoneleigh, Ewell and Epsom, where Gatwick is often as easy to reach as Heathrow.
