Finding a taxi cab when you need it can be a frustrating process. It’s always a good idea to be prepared with a list of local taxi cab services and their contact information. You can keep a list of these services in your wallet or even store the numbers in your cell phone for when you’re faced with the need for a service.

When researching taxi cabs, you can generate an online search by keying in your city and state name, followed by the key words “taxi cab services.” This online search should prompt a list of local services in your area.

A second option is to locate a national referral service for taxi cabs such as 1-800-taxicabs. This service provides a toll-free telephone number for you to call and recruit a taxi service from anywhere in the U.S. This company also offers a website.

Yet another way to search is to flip through your local yellow pages to “taxi cabs.” This type of search should offer telephone numbers, addresses (so you can see how far the service is from your point of origin) and a website address should you want to view more information about the company.

There are a variety of taxi services throughout the United States, so whichever option you choose, you’re sure to find the service you need.
