'''13cabs''' is an Australian [[Taxicab|taxi]] network with a fleet of over 10,000 vehicles. Named after their phone number (13 22 27 or “13cabs”), and a part of [[A2B Australia]], 13cabs operates in [[Sydney]], [[Melbourne]], [[Adelaide]], [[Brisbane]], [[Perth]] and [[Newcastle, New South Wales|Newcastle]]. 13cabs has expanded to the [[Northern Territory]], regional Victoria and regional Queensland, providing a 24/7 booking service via three Australian-based contact centres.
In March 2020, in an effort to counter the impact of the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] on the taxi industry, it was announced that 13cabs had established a subsidiary named 13things, a [[Delivery (commerce) |home delivery]] service that offers to pick up and deliver goods and parcels.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://13things.com.au/13cabs-announces-the-launch-of-13things-a-new-delivery-service/|title=13cabs announces the launch of 13things, a new delivery service.|website=13cabs| access-date=27 June 2022}}</ref>
Bookings can be made through the 13cabs app, enabling users to book a taxi as they would if they were travelling. They then fill in an option to mark it as a parcel.
==Community==
13cabs supports and creates community programs such as the 13cabs Taxi Driver Memorial Cup, an annual [[cricket]] match between a team of taxi drivers and a team of professional [[athlete]]s. In 2019, they facilitated over 8 million trips supporting passengers with a disability. Other initiatives include helping to deliver medical goods to hospitals, partnering with charitable organisations like Guide Dogs Australia, the [[Royal Children's Hospital]] and the [[Good Friday Appeal]].
