It's cheaper though to call to the taxi company then to pick up the car on the street. You can save around 40-50% of the money. You can call the company, ask the rate, tell your address, or at least some store, bar, disco or some building with the number and street name near which you are standing and wait for 5-7 minutes for the taxi to come.
Most taxies have a meter. Make sure it is on zero position when you get in. If you are not satisfied with the rate - call and complain to the company, drivers don't want to lose their job.
Nowadays the optimal rate is 11-14 hryvnya for 5 kilometers.
