Information
Setting taxi fares isn’t as simple as sticking a number on a meter. Behind every price is a
careful balance between fairness for customers, sustainability for drivers, and the need to
keep a reliable 24/7 service running smoothly.
At Dunmow Minicab Company, we’ve worked hard to make our pricing system simple,
clear, and trustworthy — so you always know what you’re paying for and why.
Fairness Means Transparency We know that unexpected costs are frustrating. That’s why
we’ve moved away from confusing “zone-to-zone” pricing and now base every fare purely
on distance and time.
No hidden extras. No guesswork. Just transparent pricing that reflects the journey you
actually take.
For many local trips around Great Dunmow and surrounding villages, that means fares are
now lower than before — while longer journeys remain consistent and fairly priced.
Why Taxi Pricing Isn’t One-Size-Fits-All Every journey is different. Factors such as
mileage, vehicle size, and time of day can affect the fare — and that’s completely normal
across the taxi industry.
Our aim is to make sure those factors are applied consistently and openly. Whether you
book online, through our app, or over the phone, the quote you see is what you’ll pay.
We don’t use surge pricing or unpredictable on-demand models — just steady, reliable
fares that make sense.
Why Some Hours Cost a Little More Late nights and early mornings can be tricky times to
find transport. To make sure we can always offer drivers and vehicles at unsocial hours,
we’ve introduced small time-based adjustments:
+10% on Sundays (to support Sunday coverage and availability) +35% between 23:00 and
03:00 (for late flights, night work, and pub-run chaos!)
These rates simply reflect the reality of running a 24-hour service while keeping things
sustainable for both customers and drivers.
What You Get in Return Choosing Dunmow Minicab Company means choosing reliability,
not roulette. Here’s what our customers can always expect:

We believe fairness isn’t about being the cheapest — it’s about being clear, consistent,
and dependable every single time.
Why Local Still Wins Uber and other apps may show up in Great Dunmow, but local
service still makes all the difference. Our drivers live and work here, meaning quicker
response times, local knowledge, and real accountability. When you book local, your
money stays local — supporting real people and families within our community.

why our commitment is simple: fair pricing, honest service, and no surprises.
