Hospital Transport Tarneit
Hospital Transport Tarneit is one of our key services. Many Tarneit residents travel regularly to Werribee Mercy Hospital, which is a major hospital for Melbourne’s south-west.

- Physiotherapy and rehabilitation
- Surgery follow-ups

Medical trips need care and timing. Appointment times can be strict, and wheelchair passengers often need extra time to board, travel safely and get to the correct entrance. Our drivers understand this and plan the trip properly.
For regular treatment, such as dialysis or rehabilitation, we can also assist with recurring bookings. This helps families, carers and support coordinators keep transport organised.

We accept NDIS, MPTP, TAC and WorkCover where applicable. Payment options include EFTPOS, Cabcharge, online payments and bank transfer.
Maxi Cab Tarneit for Families, Carers and Groups
