A fixed-price alternative to hailing a cab
For journeys within Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen or any other Scottish city, YourCabit gives you a price before you get in the car rather than watching a meter climb through traffic.
Built for regular use
Commuting to work, the school run, a regular hospital appointment, or just avoiding a night out driving home  city bookings make up a large share of what we do, alongside the longer intercity routes.
No surge pricing, ever
Friday night, a big event in town, terrible weather  none of it changes your price. What you are quoted at booking is what you pay.
Booking a city ride
Enter your pickup and destination in the tool above for an instant price. For regular or recurring journeys, get in touch directly and we can arrange a standing booking.
Covering more than one city
City rides aren't limited to Edinburgh — the same fixed-price approach applies within Glasgow, Aberdeen, Inverness, Dundee, and Stirling, priced from your exact pickup and destination each time.
Late-night and early-morning bookings
Availability doesn't change outside normal hours — a 2am airport run or a late finish from a night out is priced and booked exactly the same way as a daytime journey, with the same fixed price shown upfront.
What happens after you book
You'll get a confirmation email immediately with your driver's details sent through 24 hours before pickup, once a driver has been formally assigned to your job rather than just accepted in principle. On the day, your driver will confirm they're on the way with a short message, so you're never wondering whether the booking actually went through.
If your plans change
Journeys can be rescheduled free of charge up to 24 hours before pickup — just reply to your confirmation email or call the number on it directly. Inside 24 hours, get in touch as early as possible; we'll always try to accommodate a change even if we can't guarantee it at short notice.
A straightforward complaint policy
If something genuinely goes wrong — a late driver, a booking error, anything short of what we promised — tell us. We'd rather know and put it right than have you quietly never book again.
How pricing actually works
Every price is built from three things: distance, vehicle type, and any add-ons like a child seat or Meet & Greet. There is no base call-out fee stacked on top, no peak-time multiplier, and nothing added after the fact — the number shown at booking is the complete number, luggage and passengers included as standard within each vehicle's stated capacity.
Vehicle options explained
Standard saloons suit up to four passengers with modest luggage; estate and larger vehicles handle bigger groups or more bags; executive options add a higher specification of vehicle for the same route at a modest premium. The booking tool shows exactly what's available and priced for your specific journey once your route is calculated, rather than a generic list that may not actually be available on the day.
Licensed, insured, accountable
Every driver is licensed through the relevant local authority and DBS-checked before ever taking a booking. This isn't a marketing claim we make lightly — it's a minimum bar, and one a surprising number of informal or unlicensed operators in the private hire space do not consistently meet.
