Need an accessible ride in Sunshine? Wheelchair Taxi Cab Melbourne provides pre-booked wheelchair taxi and maxi cab transport for local appointments, airport trips and community outings. We serve Sunshine and nearby western suburbs. Tell us your route, timing and the passenger’s access needs; we can check vehicle suitability and availability for the requested trip.
Call 0452 614 272, send a text or WhatsApp, or use the booking form to request a trip. A request is not confirmed until our team replies with the booking details. For a faster check, include your pickup and destination addresses, date and time, return-trip needs, passenger count, wheelchair type and any mobility aid or luggage.
Trips around Sunshine and the western suburbs
We can arrange local journeys from homes, care settings and community locations to Sunshine Hospital, nearby medical practices, Sunshine Station, shops, family visits and activities. We also travel between Sunshine and other Melbourne destinations. Service availability depends on the vehicle and schedule, so share the full route when you enquire, especially for multi-stop trips or a return later in the day.
Give us the street address and a useful meeting detail, such as an entrance name, reception desk, unit number or safe place to stop. For hospital or care-home pickups, say who will meet the driver and whether staff need advance notice.
We take bookings in Sunshine and nearby western suburbs. Ask about destinations farther afield; we will confirm whether we can take the trip.
Match the vehicle to the passenger
Wheelchair access depends on the passenger’s chair and the vehicle configuration. When you contact us, tell us whether the chair is manual or powered, its approximate dimensions and weight if known, and whether the passenger will remain seated in it during travel. Please also mention scooters, walkers, oxygen equipment, luggage and the number of accompanying people.
Our fleet includes wheelchair-accessible vehicles with ramps or lifts and wheelchair restraint systems. The available vehicle, equipment and passenger capacity can vary by trip. We will confirm what can be accommodated before accepting the booking. If two wheelchair users are travelling, or the chair is especially wide, tall or heavy, share the make or measurements so we can check suitability. Do not assume every vehicle can carry every chair or group size.
The driver can operate the access equipment and secure a compatible wheelchair using the vehicle’s restraint system. Tell us about boarding needs. Drivers do not provide clinical care or personal support; a carer should travel when the passenger needs assistance during the journey.
Medical, NDIS and aged care journeys
We take bookings for medical appointments, hospital visits, treatment schedules, rehabilitation and discharge journeys. For Sunshine Hospital or another facility, allow enough time for boarding and traffic, and check the appointment’s arrival instructions. For a return journey, tell us whether you want a set pickup time or would prefer to call when the passenger is ready; we will explain what is available.
NDIS participants, families and support coordinators can ask about trips to therapy, day programs, work, community activities and appointments. Funding and payment arrangements depend on each participant’s plan and the service being booked. Before travel, confirm with your plan manager or provider whether the trip can be claimed and what records are required. We can discuss available payment methods when quoting; do not assume that a funding type is automatically accepted for every booking.
Older passengers can travel with a wheelchair, walker or companion, subject to vehicle capacity. For care-home pickups, provide the facility’s name, pickup point, contact person and any handover instructions. Families or staff should ensure the passenger is ready at the agreed time and that someone is available to assist with needs outside the driver’s role.
Airport and group bookings
We can quote accessible transfers between Sunshine and Melbourne Airport, and can check requests for Avalon Airport. Send the flight time, terminal, airline if known, luggage count, passenger and wheelchair details, and whether the trip is outbound or a pickup. We will advise the pickup time and meeting arrangement once the booking is reviewed. Flight delays, terminal changes and waiting arrangements should be discussed when you book.
A maxi cab may suit a passenger travelling with family, carers or support workers, but the number of seats changes when wheelchair positions are in use. Share the full group size and luggage so we can confirm the layout. For events, shopping or longer trips, include any planned stops and the expected return time in your enquiry.
Booking and payment
Request a trip by phone, SMS, WhatsApp or the online form. Provide clear pickup and drop-off addresses, the date, requested pickup or arrival time, passenger and companion numbers, wheelchair details, and a contact number for travel day. Mention steps, narrow access, a difficult loading area or a preferred pickup entrance. We will check availability, vehicle suitability and the fare or payment arrangement, then confirm the trip with you.
We accept several payment methods, including EFTPOS and Cabcharge; ask which options apply to your trip. If you plan to use NDIS, MPTP, TAC or WorkCover funding, confirm eligibility and payment responsibility before booking. Check the cancellation and refund policy.
