Whittlesea Bell has been in business for over 70 years and has built a solid reputation on providing quality transportation service. Currently, Whittlesea Blue Cab and Henderson Taxi operates Ford Escapes, Transconnect & Dodge Caravans as part of their fleet

In days gone by, Whittlesea used Checkers. As in other past blogs, the ICTA loves to showcase current taxicab operators that used Checkers in the past.  We believe that past use of Checkers is perhaps one reason why these taxicab operators are still in business today.  The high standards of Checker, clearly impacted all aspects of their business and cl may be one of the reason why these former Checker operators are still in business today.

It appears that Whittlesea used Checker from the early sixties to the end of Checker production in 1982.  The unique three tone paint jobs are striking, red, white and blue with a accent curved diamond on the hood.  It would be pretty hard missing one of these coming down the street.

Today Whittlesea claims that their drivers are seasoned professionals, held to the highest safety and customer service standards and is known as the leader within the transportation industry.

Their website claims their continued success is solely dependent upon providing the quality of service that their customers and passengers have come to expect and that we promise to provide.

Please enjoy these great Whittlesea photos of their past Checker fleet.
