A dependable Somerville taxi service, day and night
Somerville is an old orchard town about 50 km south-east of Melbourne’s CBD. It sits in the Shire of Mornington Peninsula, and its postcode is 3912. The railway arrived in 1889, and Somerville station still serves the Stony Point line. However, trains do not reach every street, so a Somerville taxi service fills the gaps.
Airport Taxi Cabs Melbourne runs a Somerville taxi service 24 hours a day. You can phone us or use the booking form on this page. Then we confirm your fixed fare before the car leaves.
Your driver pulls up at your address and helps with the bags. Because we set the fare when you book, traffic cannot change the price. So you can plan the whole trip with confidence.
Taxi from Somerville to Melbourne Airport
Melbourne Airport at Tullamarine is roughly 88 km from Somerville. Off-peak, the drive takes about 70 minutes. However, freeway traffic can stretch that, so a pre-booked Somerville taxi service driver leaves with time in hand. Our airport transfer service page explains the pickup at both ends.
Early flights are common from the peninsula. Because we work around the clock, a pickup at 3 am is no trouble. Tell us your flight time, and we then work backwards from it. Also check Melbourne Airport for current passenger advice before you leave.
Flying from Avalon instead? That drive is longer, so book early. The Avalon Airport taxi fares page lists typical times.
Shopping, trains and everyday trips around Somerville
The town has a Woolworths, Coles, Target and Aldi, so most people shop close to home. However, heavy bags and a long walk do not mix. A Somerville taxi service gets you and your groceries back quickly, and it suits anyone with a pram or limited mobility.
Many locals catch the train at Somerville station. If a late service leaves you stranded, call us, and we collect you from the station. Plus, we run trips to nearby Tyabb and Pearcedale when buses are slow.
East of the township, Yaringa Marina gives boat access to Western Port. Boaties can book a ride there and arrange the return later. Dinner at the Somerville Hotel works the same way, because nobody has to drive home.
Somerville taxi to hospitals and appointments
Frankston Hospital on Hastings Road has an emergency department and sits about 18 km from Somerville. A pre-booked Somerville taxi service means you arrive on time without hunting for parking. For specialist clinics, Monash Medical Centre in Clayton is a longer trip, so allow extra time. Our Frankston taxi page covers pickups at that end too.
If you use a walking frame or need a steady arm, say so when you book. We can book the return leg as well, so no one waits at the kerb after a check-up. For regular staff or client rides, ask about our corporate taxi service.
School runs and community days in Somerville
Somerville has Somerville Rise Primary, Saint Brendan’s Catholic Primary and Somerville Secondary College. Wet mornings make the school run harder, so a Somerville taxi service can help on days when the family car is busy. Plus, weekend sport at Jones Road Oval and Fruitgrowers Reserve means plenty of drop-offs.
In the early 1900s, Somerville held a harvest festival with special trains from Flinders Street. Today visitors still arrive by train, so a taxi from the station is a simple way to get around.
