Established in 1968 on the Edinburgh Castle esplanade, when 33 like-minded cabbies came together to form a radio company that offered a better level of service to the people of Edinburgh.That aim remains the same almost 50 years later and our communal spirit has made us Edinburgh's biggest and best taxi company.

Mercedes taxis are larger wheelchair accessible passenger vehicles with space for up to 6 passengers and increased luggage capacity. Mercedes M8, Vito and Viano taxis make up approximately 30% of our entire fleet. Our wheelchair accessible Peugeot E7 vehicles can seat up to 6 passengers with capacity for luggage.

We are very proud that in 2011 Central Taxis became the UK's first Carbon Neutral black taxi company and we have worked to retain accreditation ever since. We offset the emissions from every journey through the purchase of carbon credits and investing in sustainability projects.

Carbon Neutral accreditation is available to businesses which have reduced emissions to net zero in accordance with The Carbon Neutral Protocol which ensures that a business's claims of carbon neutrality are clear, credible and transparent.We have partnered with the Carbon Footprint Company, a world leading provider of carbon reduction solutions, to reduce our emissions to zero.

We are delighted to be able to announce that the Winner was the Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity. Known throughout Edinburgh as the Sick Kids Friends Foundation, the charity has recently undergone a rebranding with a new name and logo but their aim remains the same, 'to transform the experiences of children and young people in hospital so they can be a child first and a patient second'.
