Hourly (or 'as-directed') hire is the model where a rider books a vehicle for a fixed block of hours and directs the driver to multiple destinations during the block. The dispatch system has to lock the vehicle out of auto-dispatch for the booked window, surface a clear hourly meter to the rider, and bill the actual block consumed plus any overage.

  • Migrate an existing Glasgow base to TaxiCloud without losing your hourly hire workflow.

What makes hourly hire dispatch in Glasgow hard?

Hourly hire fails when the vehicle is auto-dispatched to a passing on-demand trip mid-block. The Aurora console locks the vehicle out of auto-dispatch for the entire booked window; the driver app shows the hourly meter and elapsed block-time so both driver and rider see the same number.

How does TaxiCloud run hourly hire dispatch in Glasgow?

Pricing supports per-block-hour rates, overage rates, and waiting-time surcharges. Receipts itemise the block, overage, and any add-ons (parking, tolls).

How do you migrate Glasgow hourly hire dispatch to TaxiCloud?

Corporate accounts that use hourly hire heavily (production crews, executive day-rate work, event-day shuttles) configure default block sizes and overage thresholds at the account record.

FAQ

Hourly hire taxi dispatch Glasgow — questions answered.

Is the vehicle locked out of auto-dispatch during a block?
Yes. The booked window blocks auto-dispatch entirely; the vehicle is the rider's for the block.
How is overage billed?
Per-minute or per-15-minute overage rates, configurable per account; receipts itemise block + overage separately.
Can corporate accounts set default block sizes?
Yes. Default block size and overage threshold are configurable at the account level.
Is TaxiCloud Glasgow City Council licensing-compliant?
Yes. TaxiCloud generates Glasgow City Council Hackney + private-hire quarterly return formats, supports driver compliance auditing under both licence classes, tracks vehicle inspection deadlines on the GCC calendar, and auto-suspends vehicles with lapsed plates from dispatch. Compliance prep typically drops from 6-8 hours per quarter on legacy systems to under 30 minutes.
Does TaxiCloud handle Glasgow Airport pickup flows?
Yes. Airport pre-booked flows for GLA and Glasgow Prestwick (PIK) ship out of the box, including pre-booked-only rank rules at GLA. The AI Copilot ingests flight schedules and reshuffles dispatcher ETAs when arrivals slip, drafting SMS to waiting passengers automatically.
