Hackney Carriage Tariff

Hackney Carriage Pubic Hire Taxi Fares

All of our journeys and all of our fares from the Dorking Station Taxi Rank and Dorking High Street Taxi Rank (or if hailed within Mole Valley) are on the meter and based on the hackney carriage pubic hire rate. The meter rate calibrates distance and time and is set by Mole Valley District Council. These fares are the maximum fares charged and are clearly visible to passengers during the journey. The minimum fare is £3.90. Normal fares apply from 07.30 to 23.00 Monday to Saturday. Time and half fares applies from 23.00 to 07.30 Monday to Saturday and from 23.00 Saturday to 07.30 Monday. The price you see on the meter is the price you pay. Waiting time is calibrated by the meter and will be included within your fare.

Pre-Booked Taxi Fares

Generally, local runs in and around Dorking are on a fixed set rate of £6 & £7. (These often work out less than the meter price, they are always rounded to the pound and it saves you having to worry about that small change) Most journeys will be quoted, so you will always know the price before the start of your journey, otherwise the fare will be on the meter. Minimum fare for pre-booked journeys start at £6.00 (£10 on Sundays and Bank Holidays). If you would like a quote for any journey, just go to our Booking Form page.
