We take pride in delivering a specialised transport experience that prioritises your comfort, dignity, and independence every single step of the way. Our purpose-built, fully accredited WAVs (Wheelchair accessible vehicles) are meticulously equipped with advanced hydraulic hoists, and secure four-point restraint systems, ensuring a smooth ride without ever requiring you to transfer out of your wheelchair.
At the heart of our service is a dedicated team of professionally trained, empathetic drivers who understand the nuances of assisted travel.

Experience the difference of a local transport provider that truly cares - use our banner form above to secure your Dianella accessible taxi booking today.
Stay in your own chair, anchored on four-point tie-downs, from your front door to the destination door. Certified ramps and hoists, drivers held to the national wheelchair-restraint competency, and a vehicle reserved for your booking rather than dispatched from the nearest rank.
For passengers who need patience more than they need a ramp. A held booking, a driver who walks you to the door instead of the kerb, and PTSS processed on the spot, whether or not you travel seated in a wheelchair.
Transport that clears your plan manager first time. Self-managed and plan-managed participants handled, itemised to the line, with standing weekly bookings for work, study, therapy and day programmes in a wheelchair accessible vehicle with certified ramps and restraints.
Booked around the appointment time, not the traffic. Agreed meeting points at Sir Charles Gairdner, St John of God Subiaco and Midland, Joondalup Health Campus and Osborne Park Hospital, with your chair secured properly and a driver who waits when discharge runs late.
The same driver, the same time, every week, so getting to therapy stops being the hard part of therapy. Standing bookings to physiotherapy, occupational therapy, hydrotherapy and day programmes across Perth, set up once and never rebooked again.
Door through door, not kerb to kerb. An arm down the front steps, the shopping carried in, and a driver who has allowed enough time that nobody has to hurry, whether you use a walking frame or a powerchair.
OUR STORY
Ageing in the Houses They Bought in the Sixties
Dianella's most significant growth came during the boom years of the 1960s, after the suburb was formed in 1958 by amalgamating the localities of North Inglewood, East Yokine, Morley Park and Bedford Park. Six decades on, a very large number of those homes are still occupied by people who moved into them young, and that single fact drives most of our work here. The housing ranges from modest post-war dwellings through to contemporary double-storey homes, but the older stock has a consistent characteristic that matters to us: a stepped front entry, frequently without a handrail on both sides, and almost never with a ramp retrofitted.
That is entirely liveable until a hip goes, a stroke happens or a walking frame arrives, at which point the front steps become the reason somebody stops going out. A great deal of our aged care transport in Dianella is simply about getting a person past their own front steps and to an appointment. Call 0483 926 000.
AREAS WE COVER IN Dianella
What Sixty-Year-Old Housing Does to a Pickup
The practical difficulties in Dianella are consistent enough that we plan for them by default. Crossovers were poured for a family sedan, so they are narrower and often steeper than a long-wheelbase vehicle with a rear ramp would like, and a ramp set down on a sloping crossover is not safe to push a powerchair up. Side access to many of these homes is narrow, which rules out approaching from anywhere but the front.
Mature street trees planted when the suburb was built now have substantial canopies and root systems, which in places has lifted footpath slabs enough to make a footpath approach genuinely hazardous for a chair. Verge parking is heavier than it was when the streets were designed.
The suburb's multicultural fabric adds a different kind of local knowledge rather than a difficulty: established Jewish, Greek, Italian and Asian communities mean culture-specific aged care and community facilities are on the doorstep, including the Maurice Zeffert Home, so a lot of our trips stay inside the suburb rather than heading into the city. For anything further afield, medical appointment transport to Osborne Park Hospital or Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital in Nedlands is a straightforward run from here.
Why choose us in Dianella
Why Dianella Families Book Us
The thing families tell us most often is that they had stopped trusting the alternative. A parent who has been left waiting, spoken over, or hurried up their own front steps will frequently decline the next outing altogether, and that withdrawal is far harder to reverse than a missed appointment. Our drivers are selected for temperament as deliberately as for skill, are background-checked, and hold a current Western Australian passenger transport driver authorisation. Because bookings are held against a specific vehicle rather than released into a dispatch pool, nobody is rushing your mother to get to a better fare.
Where a wheelchair is involved, drivers must undergo special courses and trainings, which are reviewed and upgraded on a regular basis, and our disability taxi vehicles carry certified ramps and four-point restraints. Short local fares are taken rather than quietly ignored. Call 0483 926 000.
AREAS WE COVER IN Dianella
The Dianella Neighbourhoods We Serve
Dianella still carries the shape of the localities it was assembled from in 1958, and those older pockets are where most of our work sits. The streets on the Inglewood side hold some of the oldest housing and the most mature street trees, which is where lifted footpath slabs are most likely. The Yokine side runs into similar post-war stock and the two suburbs blend without any real break. Towards the Morley side the housing gets slightly later and the blocks a little more regular, which generally makes for easier crossovers.
We collect from the aged care and retirement accommodation within the suburb, including the Maurice Zeffert Home, and from the community and religious facilities that serve Dianella's Jewish, Greek and Italian communities. Neighbouring Yokine and Morley are both on our regular list, so trips between them are routine. Call 0483 926 000 to confirm your street.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Everything you need to know about our Wheelchair Accessible Transport In Dianella
What does aged care transport cost in Dianella?
Most Dianella trips are short, which is exactly where the PTSS subsidy is most effective. A yellow standard card covers 50% of the fare up to a $25 subsidy per trip and a purple wheelchair card covers 75% up to $35 when you travel seated in your chair, processed by the driver at the end of the journey. On a run to a local GP, a pharmacy or a nearby aged care facility, that usually leaves a small gap rather than a real fare. If you are still holding paper TUSS vouchers, they stopped being accepted on 1 October 2025 and you need the card. Call 0483 926 000.
Can you help me down the front steps of an older Dianella home?
Yes, and in this suburb it is most of what the job involves. Homes built through Dianella's 1960s boom typically have two to four steps up to a front entry, no handrail on at least one side, and no ramp ever fitted, because nobody was planning for a walking frame sixty years ago. Your driver comes to the door, offers an arm or steadies the frame, stows it properly, and sees you into the vehicle rather than watching from the kerb. What we will not do is a physical lift or a hoist transfer at your home, because that is a manual handling task for a support worker or an occupational therapist to arrange properly.
Do you collect from aged care homes and retirement villages in Dianella?
Yes, and these pickups run better when arranged with the facility rather than around it. Dianella has long-established aged care in the suburb, including the Maurice Zeffert Home, and larger sites usually have a designated visitor or ambulance bay that suits a ramp far better than the main entrance. Tell us the facility name and the resident's name at booking, and whether staff will bring the resident down or the driver should come to the room. Standing bookings work particularly well here for weekly family visits or regular podiatry and allied health appointments.
Can your drivers work with passengers who speak limited English?
Yes, and in a suburb with Dianella's mix it comes up regularly. Our drivers are selected for temperament as much as skill, and the practical technique is simple: speak to the passenger rather than over them to a family member, allow time, and confirm the destination clearly before setting off. Where a family member or support worker wants to travel along to interpret, tell us at booking so the right vehicle goes out and the fare is quoted with everyone included. If it helps, the booking itself can be made by a family member and the access notes kept on file so nothing has to be re-explained each trip.
How far is Dianella from the major hospitals?
Comfortably placed, which is one of the practical benefits of an inner-northern suburb. Osborne Park Hospital, with its stroke rehabilitation and aged care and rehabilitation services, is a short run west. Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital in Nedlands, which shares a campus with Perth Children's Hospital, is a straightforward trip rather than the cross-city expedition it becomes from the outer north-east. St John of God Subiaco is similarly manageable. We still book backwards from your appointment time and include your loading time. Call 0483 926 000.
Do you cover Yokine, Morley and Inglewood as well?
Yes. Dianella was itself formed in 1958 out of localities including North Inglewood, East Yokine and Morley Park, so the boundaries between these suburbs are administrative rather than real, and our trips cross them constantly. Yokine and Morley are both on our regular list. If your address sits in one of the surrounding streets and you are not sure whether we come there, call 0483 926 000 and we will tell you straight away rather than leaving you to work it out.
