Is Uber Cheaper Than a Local Croydon Cab?
It is one of the most common questions we hear. Ride apps can look cheaper on a quiet afternoon, but prices rise with demand, which is exactly when you need a car most: early airport runs, rainy Friday nights and bank holidays.
With Croydon Car Services your fare is agreed before you travel and does not change with demand. You can pre-book days ahead, choose an estate, executive car or 8-seat minibus, and speak to a real person in Croydon if your plans change. Read our full comparison: is Uber cheaper than a local cab?
