We will also help you gain a taxi badge from Argyll & Bute council.

Vehicle Options:
* Use your own licensed vehicle – keep more of your earnings.
* Use a Lorn Taxis vehicle – drive one of our cars on a rental basis. A percentage of your earnings will go towards covering car hire and running costs, meaning less hassle for you.
What We Offer:
