Greensboro Taxi Fares Explained

Greensboro licenses taxicab companies and sets maximum meter rates, so fares follow a city tariff rather than surge pricing. Meters charge a flag drop plus distance and waiting time, and drivers cannot exceed those rates.

A typical 5 km ride between downtown and Friendly Center costs about $10 to $12 before tip. Airport trips from Piedmont Triad International often use company flat rates, which can differ from the metered fare.

Waiting time is charged when the taxi is stopped in traffic or waiting for the passenger. Extra passengers may add a small fee, and most rides are booked by phone or through local dispatch apps.
