Getting a taxi on the road should not mean tying up thousands of pounds in a car before you have earned a penny. HT Taxi Rentals supplies fully prepared Toyota hybrid taxis to drivers across Kirklees, Calderdale and Wolverhampton, so you can be out working and earning without the upfront cost of buying your own vehicle.
Finance deals, repair bills, depreciation, insurance headaches, owning a taxi adds up long before a single fare is taken. Renting takes that weight off your shoulders and gets you driving quickly, with everything sorted through one point of contact. Call or WhatsApp us on 07857 362646 and we can usually have you set up within days.
Our fleet is built around Toyota hybrids, and that is a deliberate choice. Fuel is one of the biggest costs a working driver faces, and around town, where most taxi work happens, a hybrid sips fuel while a diesel drinks it. Drivers regularly tell us the fuel savings alone make a real difference to their weekly take-home.
Toyota hybrids are also famously reliable, comfortable for passengers, and meet the standards local licensing authorities expect from private hire vehicles. Every car goes out clean, maintained and ready for licensed work, and if anything does go wrong, you deal with us directly rather than a faceless leasing company.
To rent one of our vehicles or join the 50/50 scheme, you will need a full UK driving licence and a private hire driver’s licence for your local council area, or to be in the process of applying for one. If you are new to the trade and unsure where to start with licensing, get in touch anyway, we are happy to point you in the right direction.
We keep things simple. There are two options, and you pick whichever suits your circumstances.
If you would rather not commit to a fixed weekly rent, join as a company driver. We provide the car, you provide the driving, and earnings are split 50/50. There is no rent to find in a quiet week, which makes this a low-risk way to start out, or to test whether full-time driving is right for you before you commit to anything bigger.
Prefer to keep everything you earn? Rent one of our vehicles at a fixed weekly rate and every fare you take is yours. This suits experienced drivers who know their earning power and want full control of their income. You choose your hours, you keep your takings, we look after the car.
Not sure which route fits you best? Message us on WhatsApp at 07857 362646 and we will talk it through honestly, no pressure either way.
