Looking for wheelchair accessible taxis 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.

人们还会问什么？
Can I stay in my wheelchair for the whole trip?
Yes. In both the wheelchair accessible van and the Maxi WAT you remain seated in your own chair. The driver secures it with four-point restraints and fits a lap-sash seatbelt for you. If you prefer to transfer to a seat and travel in a sedan, that is also possible, and a folding chair can go in the boot.
My power chair is quite heavy. Which vehicle should I book?
Book the Maxi WAT. It uses a hydraulic hoist rather than a ramp, which makes it the better choice for heavier power chairs and larger tilt-in-space models. If you are unsure, describe the chair when you book or phone us, and we will confirm which vehicle suits it before the day.
Can my carer and family come with me?
A carer travels with the passenger. The van seats four passengers as well as the wheelchair user, and the Maxi seats six alongside two wheelchairs, so family members can usually come too. Tell us the total number of people when booking so we allocate a vehicle with enough room for everyone.
Do you accept MPTP cards?
Yes, we accept Multi Purpose Taxi Program cards. Have your card with you and the driver will process it at the end of the trip. We also bill approved NDIS and aged-care accounts. Mention how you are paying when you book so the right details are ready before your driver arrives.
How far ahead should I book a wheelchair taxi?
We run around the clock, but accessible vehicles are popular, so book as early as you can, particularly for early appointments, weekends and public holidays. The online form takes about two minutes and you will receive an SMS or email confirmation. Same-day requests are worth trying too, so call us if plans change.
Questions about wheelchair accessible taxis from mount eliza
How long does it take from Mount Eliza to 墨尔本市中心（CBD）?
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 wheelchair accessible taxis from Mount Eliza?
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 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.
