cab company?

I am planning a surprise party for DH but don't want to have to worry about driving. Can anyone recommend a cab company that I can scheduled a pick up with before hand, along with a return time? I don't want a car service that I have to pay $$$ for to sit over 5 hours when we are just heading from Smyrna to Odessa. 

Re: cab company?

  • there aren't many that i'm aware of.  When my husband and I lived in chesapeake city we would go drinking at chesapeake inn and always had to have sober driver because there wern't any taxi services available.

    we did one time reach a cab service and they charged us $20 each way to drive us over the bridge. it was rediculous. but we had a group of people so we were able to split it. but seriously the ride was 5 minutes.

  • Thanks for sharing! I've tried google and I've only found one cab company for DE so far, the rest are all car services. I'm wondering what the rate would be now that you've brought that up for about a 30m ride. I've seen cabs around Dover but they all look pretty beat up. I'm just trying to figure out how to get DH to his surprise birthday without him being like why aren't we just driving. 
  • I've looked before and the only one I really found was http://www.championtaxide.com I never called for quotes or anything, but it was the only one that didn't say limo service. Hope that helps!

  • PhilPhan that is perfect! Thanks!! I will check them out - I wanted a company with a set pick up time, not just hey call and see if a cab is available. 
  • I'm no help, but I'm curious about the party!  Is it for his birthday?
  • There is one on Middletown. I can't remember the name, but I found it with google. We were going to use it from Chesapeake Inn to home (near Christiana Hospital) and it was going to be like $40-50. I've used another cab service previously as well. I found a bunch when I googled cab companies in Delaware. The ones I've planned on using were agreeing to a set time for us to use. Hope you find one!

    Yes - DH will be 30. Planning a party at Cantwell's tavern - well in the historic bank building as a surprise! It's this summer but I'm also a MOH in my sisters wedding so I'm planning like 100 things at the moment and trying to stay ahead of the game.
