A taxi is not just another courier
Holding a taxi licence changes what actually happens to your parcel in Paris traffic and on the motorway.
- One pair of hands only
- Certified meter, no opaque flat fee
- Free to leave the region
An urgent delivery between Paris and Bordeaux covers 586 kilometres and roughly 6h 40 of driving in a dedicated vehicle. The indicative rate is 1 552 € one way, tolls and fuel included. The vehicle leaves as soon as the parcel is loaded: it waits neither for a round to fill up nor for a flight or train schedule. Up to 700 km the same driver goes the whole way; beyond that a relay is arranged without the parcel ever leaving the vehicle.
For a Paris → Lyon shipment that must be there by tomorrow morning, the four options are far from equal.

Estimates are based on the most direct road distance, one way, dedicated vehicle, one pickup address and one delivery address. The taximeter remains the reference on arrival. Night, Sunday and public-holiday surcharges follow the prefectoral order in force. Tolls and fuel are already included in the figures shown.

A call, a WhatsApp message or the online form. We need three things: where to load, where to deliver, what is inside. The indicative rate is given immediately.
The nearest taxi heads for the pickup point. You get his first name and direct number. In Paris and the inner suburbs he is with you within thirty to sixty minutes.
The vehicle does nothing but your job. No other parcels on board, no detours, no sorting centre. Call the driver whenever you want to know where he is.
The parcel is handed to the named recipient. A time-stamped photo, the name of the person who signed for it and the GPS position reach you straight away. The receipt follows by e-mail.
About 6h 40 of actual driving for 586 km, barring exceptional traffic. Because departure happens as soon as loading is done, without waiting for a round or a flight, the door-to-door time is generally shorter than any other option.
The indicative rate is 1 552 € one way, dedicated vehicle, tolls and fuel included. That figure is the distance-based rate card applied to the real road distance.
Yes up to seven hundred kilometres. Beyond that, driving-time regulations require a relay: a second driver takes the wheel at an agreed point, but the parcel never leaves the vehicle.
It depends on the distance and the departure time. The vehicle stays assigned on site as long as needed, then drives back with your return shipment. Distance is counted both ways.
Nothing unusual: we drive at night as we do by day. The night surcharge set by the prefectoral order applies on the meter, and hand-over is made to the person you have named, whatever the hour.
For a destination inside the European Union, no customs paperwork is required. For Switzerland and the United Kingdom, the sender provides the ATA carnet, pro forma invoice or export declaration, which we present at the border post.
We answer on the first ring, day or night. Describe the shipment and we will give you the price and the arrival time.
