I am prob not in the correct section but not sure where is the best to ask!!!
We live in south county Dublin beyond Dunlaoghaire..Parents having a 6oth party the All Ireland Final weekend and need to try source a taxi driver or number that we can call to book taxis to bring people back into town after ... I had a few numbers but would have to block book them for a few hours and not sure what time people would leave at ....Prob not till early hours..... I know you prob say go out to road but we a bit away from a main rd that cabs would be passing... Does anyone know someone / some company that does runs ( they could be working that night and we would call and no prob waiting hour or whatever once we knew someone would come!!
Any help needed

Check the yellow pages, there are hundreds of companies and most would cover your area.Most companies use satnav so there is a good possability that there will be lots of cabs in your area. Try, city cabs,national,xpert digi who all use satnav, the job is booked and given to the nearest car in your area.

Thanks Dub Tom.... I have lots of phone numbers but they will all only take bookings on the night... hence why looking to see if someone knows a hackney or something taht we could book to do runs at the end of the night!

go with the mini bus..
it wont cost much if it fills..
get onto people who will be going, to tell them there will be a bus available if they would like to avail of it, try and get numbers of roughly how many will use it..

Thanks Femmy
Looked into buses and quite expensive! Dont want to put pressure on people to book times etc just wanted to have a number we could call on the night to take people home when they are ready and they pay the taxi fare....
Im hoping it will be ok on the night to call the local company and make bookings an hour / 2 in advance and there wont be problems but would love ease of mind if had a guaranteed contact !!!
