Cabrio Taxi Is Hiring In San Francisco and Sacramento

Do You Have What it Takes?

If you are friendly, driven, and want to make the most out of every day, consider applying for a position as a pedicab driver with Cabrio Taxi. We are looking for a select few pedicab drivers to work with our company. We pride ourselves on hosting the best pedicab operators in the nation and our drivers often say that pedicabbing is the best job they’ve ever had. 

Our pedicabbers are gregarious, fit, independent, and locally informed. You should feel comfortable initiating conversations with people on the street as well as be able to entertain people on your pedicab while you bring them to their destination. If you are looking for a job in San Francisco that is fun, challenging, and rewarding: Cabrio Taxi is offering exactly what you are looking for.

Know the process

Pedicab operators are self-employed and independently licensed.  This means that to become a pedicab operator in San Francisco, you will have to obtain a pedicab operators license on your own.  This involves credentialing, paperwork, and a few trips to state and city municipal institutions (DMV & SFPD).  For your convenience, we've broken the process up into two stages.  Please be familiar with this process before you apply to ride with us, but note: you can not begin your process with SFPD without paperwork from Cabrio Taxi.
