Looking for medical & hospital trips from Mount Eliza? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Mount Eliza 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.
Nepean Highway runs along the bay side of Mount Eliza and gets busy at school drop-off and pick-up times. The Moorooduc Highway, on the inland side, links quickly to Peninsula Link and Frankston. Mount Eliza Village can be congested on weekends, so a side-street pick-up may be faster. Some streets towards the bay are narrow and winding with steep driveways. The nearest rail link is Frankston station, where the Frankston line begins. Canadian Bay Road and the streets leading down to the bay have limited stopping space, so pick a driveway or side street for loading. Traffic towards Frankston can build on weekday mornings.

Cos’altro chiedono le persone?
How does “pick up when ready” work?
Book your trip home in advance and choose the pick up when ready option instead of a fixed time. When the hospital clears you to leave, tap “I’m ready” on your booking or phone us, and we send a vehicle then. It suits hospital discharge, day surgery and appointments that tend to run late.
Can you drop me at a particular department?
Yes. Tell us the department, clinic or ward when you book and the driver will head for the most suitable drop-off point at that hospital or medical centre. If the entrance is a short walk from where vehicles can stop, the driver will help you get there.
Can someone else book a medical trip for me?
Absolutely. Family members, carers, support coordinators and clinic staff often book for patients. Give us the passenger’s name, pick-up address and any mobility needs, and choose whether the confirmation goes to the passenger or the person booking. The driver will ask for the passenger by name on arrival.
Do you go to hospitals in Melbourne as well as on the Peninsula?
Yes. Alongside Frankston Hospital and Rosebud Hospital, we regularly take passengers to Monash Medical Centre in Clayton and specialist hospitals in the city. We travel anywhere in Melbourne, so you can book a return trip for treatment, follow-up appointments or visiting a relative in hospital.
I need a regular trip for dialysis. Can I set that up?
Yes. Many passengers have standing bookings for dialysis, chemotherapy or rehabilitation on the same days each week. Let us know the schedule, the treatment centre and whether you need a wheelchair vehicle. MPTP cards are accepted, and approved NDIS and aged-care accounts can be billed for these regular trips.

About 55 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 medical & hospital trips from Mount Eliza?

Can you pick me up from my home, a hospital or an aged-care home in Mount Eliza?
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 do regular trips to schools in Mount Eliza?
Yes. Parents and guardians can set up recurring bookings for school runs to and from schools in Mount Eliza and nearby suburbs. Give us the student's details, the school gate or meeting point and the times. Let us know if a wheelchair accessible vehicle is needed. School zones are busy, so we plan pick-ups with a little margin.
What is the easiest way from Mount Eliza to the train?
Frankston station is the closest metropolitan station, and a taxi gets you there via the Nepean or Moorooduc Highway. Tell us which train you are aiming for so we can time the pick-up. For daily commuters, a standing booking saves calling each morning, and you will get confirmation by SMS or email.
Can a wheelchair taxi pick me up from Mount Eliza Village?
Yes. The village can be busy, so we usually suggest a quieter side street or a spot with enough room behind the vehicle for the ramp or hoist. Describe where you will be waiting in the booking notes, and the driver will come to you and help with loading and restraints.
