Looking for ndis & aged care from Melbourne CBD? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Melbourne CBD 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.
Getting out of the city towards the south-east usually means Kings Way and the Monash Freeway, or the West Gate Freeway and CityLink, then EastLink and Peninsula Link down to the Peninsula. Peak hours and major events can slow these routes considerably. Many CBD streets have tram lanes, clearways and loading zones where stopping is restricted, so we agree a legal pick-up point in advance, such as a side street, a hotel drop-off area or a hospital patient pick-up zone. Large events at Melbourne Park and the MCG create heavy traffic around Olympic Boulevard and Punt Road.

Τι άλλο ρωτούν συχνά;
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.
Questions about ndis & aged care from melbourne cbd

About 25 minutes without traffic. We add time for loading and securing your wheelchair, and for peak-hour traffic, when we plan your pick-up.
How much does it cost for ndis & aged care from Melbourne CBD?
Fares depend on distance, time of day and waiting time. The booking form shows an estimate, or ask us for a fixed quote.
Can you pick me up from my home, a hospital or an aged-care home in Melbourne CBD?
Yes. We pick up from any address — homes, hospitals, clinics, aged-care homes and day programs — and help you from the door to the vehicle.
Can you pick me up from a Parkville hospital and take me home to the Peninsula?
Yes. We regularly collect patients from the Royal Melbourne, Royal Women’s, Peter Mac and Royal Children’s hospitals for the trip back to Frankston and the Peninsula. Choose the pick up when ready option if your discharge time is uncertain, then tap I'm ready or call us. Tell us the hospital and your ward or department when booking.
Will you collect me after a game at the MCG or a concert at Rod Laver Arena?
We can. Book in advance and nominate a pick-up point away from the main crowds, since the roads right beside the venues are often closed or jammed after events. We will confirm the spot by SMS or email. A group can share the Maxi WAT, and it also suits fans travelling with wheelchairs.
I am arriving by V/Line or coach at Southern Cross. Can you meet me?
Yes. Southern Cross Station is a common pick-up for passengers heading to Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. Give us your expected arrival time and we will agree a meeting point outside the station. If your service is delayed, call us and we will adjust. Wheelchair accessible vehicles are available for passengers who travel in their chair.
