Wheelchair Accessible Taxi

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.

Disability Taxi

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.

NDIS Transport

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.

Medical Appointment Transport

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.

Rehabilitation & Therapy Transport

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.

Aged Care Transport

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

A Suburb That Grew Up All at Once

Duncraig's development began in the late 1960s and the bulk of the suburb was built through the mid-1970s, with the infrastructure arriving almost simultaneously: Davallia Primary School in February 1974, Duncraig Library in July 1974 and Duncraig Primary School in February 1975. Nearly 16,000 people now live across its eight square kilometres. A suburb that was built in one concentrated burst also ages in one concentrated burst, and that is precisely what has happened here: a great many of the people who bought into Duncraig as young families in the 1970s are still in the same houses fifty years later.

The result is a steady, predictable demand for aged care transport and rehabilitation trips, from homes that were designed for people who could take the front steps two at a time. Duncraig also has something most of our suburbs do not, which is a rehabilitation hospital of its own. Call 0483 926 000.

AREAS WE COVER IN Duncraig

Split-Levels, Sloping Blocks and Steep Crossovers

The specific problem in Duncraig is topography combined with 1970s design taste. Many homes here sit on blocks with a noticeable fall, and the split-level layouts that were fashionable when the suburb was built put several steps between the street and the front door, sometimes with a further level change inside. Crossovers on sloping blocks fall away toward the street, and a rear ramp deployed onto a slope is not safe to push a powerchair up, so on plenty of Duncraig addresses the flatter part of the street is a better loading point than the driveway.

Mature street planting from the mid-1970s has produced substantial canopies and, in places, lifted footpath slabs that make a footpath approach unreliable for a chair. The compensations are real: Glengarry Private Hospital on Arnisdale Road provides aged care and rehabilitation inpatient services within the suburb itself, and Joondalup Health Campus, with its 25-bed public rehabilitation ward, is a comfortable run north. That combination makes rehabilitation and therapy transport the single largest part of what we do in Duncraig.

Why choose us in Duncraig

Why Duncraig Households Choose Us

Rehabilitation and discharge work exposes an unreliable operator faster than anything else, because the passenger is usually tired, sometimes unwell, and in no position to arrange an alternative. We hold your booking against a specific vehicle and driver rather than releasing it into a dispatch pool, so it cannot be dropped for a longer fare. On discharges we work off the ward's actual clearance rather than an optimistic first estimate, because we have seen enough of them to know the difference.

Drivers hold a current Western Australian passenger transport driver authorisation, are background-checked, and must undergo special courses and trainings, which are reviewed and upgraded on a regular basis. Our medical appointment transport bookings include an agreed drop-off point so nobody is navigating a hospital campus in a chair. Call 0483 926 000.

The Duncraig Neighbourhoods We Serve

Across eight square kilometres, Duncraig varies more than a single suburb name suggests. The streets around the Davallia and Duncraig Primary School catchments hold the oldest housing from the mid-1970s peak and the most mature verge trees, which is where lifted footpath slabs and steep crossovers are most common. The pockets on the sloping ground have the split-level entries that need the loading point agreed in advance.

Around Arnisdale Road we are in and out of Glengarry Private Hospital constantly on discharge and outpatient runs. The suburb sits directly alongside Greenwood, Kingsley, Warwick and Carine, and because our passengers' appointments rarely respect suburb boundaries we cross between them all day. If your street is on a boundary or you are simply not sure, call 0483 926 000 and we will confirm immediately.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything you need to know about our Wheelchair Accessible Transport In Duncraig

What does wheelchair accessible transport cost in Duncraig?

Metered trips run on the standard Western Australian on-demand fare structure and the PTSS subsidy then applies to cardholders, at 75% of the fare up to a $35 subsidy on a purple wheelchair card or 50% up to $25 on a yellow card. Local runs within Duncraig or across to Glengarry Private Hospital on Arnisdale Road are short enough that the subsidy covers most of it. Longer trips to Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital in Nedlands will reach the cap, so ask for an estimate first. For private hourly bookings we quote the job. Call 0483 926 000.

Can you collect me from Glengarry Private Hospital when I am discharged?

Yes, and discharge trips are worth planning slightly differently to an ordinary booking. Glengarry Private Hospital on Arnisdale Road provides aged care and rehabilitation inpatient services, and rehabilitation discharges rarely happen at the time first quoted, because paperwork, pharmacy and a final sign-off all have to line up. Rather than fix a time and leave you waiting in a chair by the lift, we work off a call from you or the ward when you are genuinely cleared. Tell us if your mobility has changed during the admission, because the vehicle we send may need to change too. Call 0483 926 000.

Are Duncraig's split-level homes a problem for a wheelchair?

They are the defining local challenge, and they are the reason we ask about your entry before the first trip. Homes built through Duncraig's mid-1970s peak commonly sit on sloping blocks with split-level entries, several steps to the front door and a crossover that falls away towards the street. A ramp needs firm level ground, so a steep crossover often means loading from the flatter part of the street rather than the driveway itself. None of that is a barrier once it is known. Tell us at booking and we record it against your address so it is settled permanently.

Do you cover Carine, Sorrento and Marmion as well?

We work right across this part of the northern corridor, and Duncraig sits centrally within it alongside Greenwood, Kingsley, Warwick and Karrinyup, all of which are on our regular list. The suburbs named on this site are where we work most often rather than a hard boundary line. If your address is in a neighbouring street or suburb and you are unsure, call 0483 926 000 and we will confirm on the spot rather than leaving you to guess.

Do you take people to Joondalup Health Campus from Duncraig?

Yes, regularly. Joondalup Health Campus is the major hospital for Perth's northern corridor and runs a 25-bed public rehabilitation ward along with aged care and rehabilitation services, so it is a frequent destination for Duncraig passengers on both outpatient and discharge trips. It is a comfortable run north rather than a cross-city expedition. We book backwards from your appointment time and include your actual loading time rather than a generic allowance, and we will agree the specific drop-off point in advance so you are not navigating a large campus in a chair.

Can I set up a standing weekly booking in Duncraig?

Yes, and with a rehabilitation hospital in the suburb it is a common arrangement here. You give us the day, the time and the destination once, and the slot stays yours without rebooking each week. Your access notes, including the crossover and entry details that matter so much in Duncraig, are stored against the booking. If a week needs skipping you tell us and we release that week alone without losing the slot. Call 0483 926 000 to set one up.
