Looking for wheelchair accessible taxis from Seaford? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Seaford 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 through Seaford can be busy at peak times and on warm weekends when beachgoers head for the foreshore. The Frankston Freeway and EastLink give quick access north and to the airport. Seaford and Kananook stations are on the Frankston line, with frequent metropolitan services. Beach parking fills up in summer, so a pick-up point off the highway may be easier. Many residential streets are quiet and flat, which makes kerbside wheelchair loading straightforward. Peak-hour traffic builds on the routes leading onto the Frankston Freeway, and in summer the foreshore can be crowded on weekends. Tell us which side of the highway you are on.

Cos’altro chiedono le persone?
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 seaford
How long does it take from Seaford to Centro di Melbourne (CBD)?
About 45 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 Seaford?
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 Seaford?
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 Seaford or Kananook station?
Yes. Tell us which station and which side you will exit, and roughly when your train arrives. Both stations are on the Frankston line. If you are travelling with a wheelchair, our ramp van or Maxi WAT can meet you at the station and take you home or to your appointment.
How do I get from Seaford to Monash Medical Centre in Clayton?
We take Seaford residents to Monash Medical Centre regularly, usually via the freeways. Give us your appointment time and department when booking. For the return trip, choose a set time or the pick up when ready option, then tap I'm ready or call us when you are finished.
Can you drop us at the Seaford foreshore for a beach day?
Yes. We can drop you at a foreshore car park or pathway near the pier and pick you up at a set time. In summer, parking areas get crowded, so agree a clear meeting point. Wheelchair accessible vehicles are available, and the driver can help with gear.
