Looking for ndis & aged care from Rye? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Rye 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.
Point Nepean Road through Rye is slow in summer, with foreshore camping, beach parking and pedestrians crossing to the beach. The Mornington Peninsula Freeway ends near Rosebud, so trips north follow local roads towards Rosebud before joining it. Roads to the ocean beaches are narrow and can have sandy verges, and some holiday streets are unsealed. There is no train service here. When booking a holiday rental pick-up, include the full address and any name on the property, as numbering can be hard to spot at night. On ocean beach days, car parks at the back beaches fill early and stopping space near the paths is limited.

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.
Questions about ndis & aged care from rye
How long does it take from Rye to Centro di Melbourne (CBD)?
About 80 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 Rye?
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 Rye?
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 take us from Rye to Peninsula Hot Springs?
Yes. Peninsula Hot Springs is in Fingal, close to Rye, and we take visitors there often. Book your return trip in advance or use the pick up when ready option, because demand rises in the evenings. Wheelchair accessible vehicles are available, and groups can travel together in the Maxi WAT.
I am staying in a holiday rental in Rye. How do I make a booking?
Book online or by phone with the full street address, plus any property name or description that helps the driver find it at night. Rye holiday streets can be dark and poorly numbered. Add your mobile number so the driver can reach you, and your confirmation will arrive by SMS or email.
Do you go from Rye to the ocean back beaches?
We do. We can drop you at back beach car parks such as St Andrews Beach and pick you up later. Mobile reception can be patchy near some ocean beaches, so it is best to book your return at a set time. Note that the paths down to the sand are often steep and not suited to wheelchairs.
