Comparing Taxis and Private Car Hire in Barkingside

Private Hire vs. Taxi Service: What’s the Difference?

A private hire vehicle, or minicab, must be pre-booked and can't be hailed on the street. A taxi can be hailed. Metro Radio Cars is a Private Hire Vehicle service, providing a safe, reliable ride with a fixed fare that you agree to before you travel, unlike a metered taxi fare that can go up in traffic.
