Looking for ndis & aged care from Dandenong? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Dandenong in a wheelchair accessible taxi with a ramp or hoist, four-point wheelchair restraints and a driver trained to help you in and out safely.
The Princes Highway and Lonsdale Street are busy through central Dandenong, especially at peak times and on market days. EastLink and the Monash Freeway provide fast access north and towards the city, while EastLink and Peninsula Link connect south to Frankston and the Peninsula. Dandenong station is on the Pakenham and Cranbourne lines. Industrial areas in Dandenong South are large and confusing at night, so give exact gate details.

Cos’altro chiedono le persone?
Can my NDIS plan pay for the taxi?
We bill approved NDIS accounts, so if your plan includes transport funding and the arrangement is in place, trips can be invoiced rather than paid on the day. Talk to your plan manager or support coordinator about what your plan covers, then tell us how you would like billing handled when you first book.
Do you provide transport for aged-care clients?
Yes. We bill approved aged-care accounts and regularly carry older passengers to appointments, shopping, social groups and family visits. Drivers help from door to door and are used to walking frames, folding wheelchairs and passengers who need a little extra time. Residential care staff and family members can book on a client’s behalf.
Can a support coordinator book on my behalf?
Yes. Support coordinators, plan managers, support workers and family members all make bookings for passengers. Give us the passenger’s details, any mobility needs and who should receive confirmations, and we will keep that information with future trips. The driver will always ask for the passenger by name on pick-up.
Can I set up a regular weekly booking?
Yes, and many passengers prefer it. Tell us the days, times and addresses for your regular trips, whether to a day program, therapy, work or shopping, and we will set them up. If something changes, such as a cancelled session or a public holiday, just let us know and we adjust the booking.
Does my support worker pay a separate fare?
A carer or support worker travels with the passenger as part of the same trip. If you are unsure how this applies under your particular funding arrangement, mention it when you book and check with your plan manager, and we will make sure the trip details are recorded clearly for billing.
