What is a drop taxi / one way taxi?
A drop taxi is a one-way outstation cab. You travel from one city to another and pay only for the one-way distance — not for the car's empty return journey. Our one way fare starts at ₹15/km for a sedan.
How is the drop taxi fare calculated?
Fare = kilometres travelled × per-km rate + driver bata. Driver bata is ₹300 for trips under 300 km and ₹500 for trips over 300 km (₹500 for Tempo Traveller). Toll, parking, hill-station charges and inter-state permits are extra, only if applicable.
Is there a minimum distance or minimum fare?
Yes. The minimum billing is 130 km. Trips shorter than 130 km can be booked, but are charged as 130 km — for example a sedan costs at least ₹2,250 including driver bata.
Do you cover all districts of Tamil Nadu?
Yes. We pick up and drop in all 38 districts of Tamil Nadu — from Chennai to Kanyakumari and Coimbatore to Nagapattinam — including smaller towns and villages.

Is advance payment required?
In most cases no advance is needed; you pay the driver at the end of the trip by cash or UPI. For some long-distance or peak-season bookings we may request a small advance to block the car.
Are toll charges included in the fare?
No. Toll charges are paid as per actuals on the route. Parking fees and hill charges (for Ooty, Kodaikanal, Yercaud etc.) are also extra where applicable.
Do you offer round trips and group vehicles?
Yes. Round trips, multi-day tours and Tempo Traveller (up to 12 seats) bookings are available — call us for a quote.
Do you do airport pickups and drops?
Yes. Choose the Airport tab in the booking form. We cover Chennai, Coimbatore, Madurai, Trichy, Thoothukudi, Salem and Bengaluru airports. Minimum billing is 130 km.
What is your cancellation policy?
You can cancel free of charge up to 2 hours before pickup. For late cancellations or if the driver has already reached the pickup point, a small cancellation fee may apply.
Is One Cab Service available at night?
Yes, we operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including night pickups from railway stations and airports.
Can I stop on the way?
Yes, short stops for food, restrooms or a quick temple visit are fine. Long halts may attract waiting charges.
Do you travel outside Tamil Nadu?
Yes, we also do drops to Bengaluru, Puducherry, Tirupati and Kerala. Inter-state permit charges apply.
Is it safe for women and senior citizens to travel alone?
Yes. We assign experienced, verified drivers and share driver and car details before pickup so your family can follow the trip.
Can I carry luggage and pets?
A sedan fits 2–3 medium bags; Innova, Crysta and Tempo Traveller take more. Pets are allowed on request — mention it while booking.
