Looking for group & maxi travel from Frankston? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Frankston 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.
Frankston’s centre can be congested around Nepean Highway, Young Street and the station precinct, especially at school times and on weekend afternoons. Frankston Hospital on Hastings Road is busy throughout the day, and drop-offs work best at the main entrance or the patient pick-up area; tell us your department. The Frankston line and Stony Point line meet at Frankston station. Summer events on the foreshore, such as the waterfront festivals, can close roads near the beach. Peninsula Link and the Frankston Freeway are the quickest routes north. Around Monash University’s Peninsula campus, class change times bring a lot of student traffic.

Cos’altro chiedono le persone?
How many people fit in a Maxi taxi?
Our Maxi WAT carries up to six seated passengers plus two wheelchair users. Every passenger has a lap-sash seatbelt, and wheelchairs are secured with four-point restraints. If your group is bigger than one Maxi, we can send an additional vehicle and coordinate both so the group travels at about the same time.
Can the Maxi pick people up from different addresses?
Yes. List each pick-up address in order when you book, and the driver will collect everyone along the way. The same works in reverse at the end of a night out, with passengers dropped at their own homes. Giving us all the addresses upfront lets us plan the most sensible route.
Is the Maxi only for wheelchair users?
No. The Maxi is a wheelchair accessible taxi, but it is just as useful for groups without any wheelchairs. Families, friends, work teams and sporting groups book it for airport trips, dinners, events and day trips simply because everyone can travel in one vehicle together.
Will our luggage fit for an airport trip?
Tell us how many suitcases, prams, golf bags or other large items you have when you book. We will confirm whether everything fits in the Maxi with your group, or suggest a second vehicle if needed. Space depends on how many seats and wheelchair positions are in use on the trip.
How far ahead should we book a Maxi?
As early as possible, especially for weekend nights, public holidays, the summer season on the Peninsula and big event days in Melbourne. Maxi vehicles are popular with groups and wheelchair users alike. Book online in about two minutes or phone us, and you will receive an SMS or email confirmation.

We send the nearest suitable car, including a wheelchair accessible vehicle if needed. The driver meets you at the hospital entrance and can help with bags and getting settled at home.
How do I get from Frankston to Melbourne Airport early in the morning?
Book the night before and give us your flight time so we can plan the pick-up with plenty of margin. Early morning traffic is usually lighter, but we still allow for roadworks and freeway closures. For return trips, add your flight number and we track your arrival so the driver adjusts to delays.
Do you pick up from Frankston station for people coming off the train?
Yes, many passengers use us to finish a journey that started on the Frankston line or the Stony Point line. Tell us which side of the station you will exit and roughly when your train arrives. If you are travelling with a wheelchair, our ramp van or Maxi WAT can meet you at the station.
