Frequently asked questions
Where does the chauffeur pick me up in Essendon?
Standard pickup in Essendon 3040 is at your Essendon address door-to-door. If access is restricted (private driveway, apartment lobby, or busy loading zone), the driver will SMS on arrival and hold in the nearest legal spot until you're ready — no rush.
How much waiting time is included on a Essendon booking?
Essendon bookings include 15 minutes of complimentary wait at pickup and 10 minutes at each intermediate stop. Beyond that, extra wait is billed in 15-minute blocks at the vehicle's hourly rate — no surprise fees, the driver will always confirm by SMS before the meter starts.
What determines the price of a chauffeur booking from Essendon?
Three factors drive your Essendon 3040 fare: (1) distance and route — e.g. Essendon → Melbourne Airport (MEL) is 11 km from $120, or Essendon → Melbourne CBD is 8 km from $85; (2) vehicle class — sedan, SUV, people mover or wedding car; (3) any extras — extended wait, additional stops, or after-midnight surcharge on New Year's Eve. Tolls and GST are always included; no surge pricing.
How early should I book a chauffeur in Essendon?
Same-day Essendon bookings are usually confirmed within a few hours subject to fleet availability. For guaranteed vehicle choice (S-Class, Rolls-Royce, V-Class people mover) we recommend 24–48 hours ahead. Weddings and multi-car bookings in Essendon: 2–4 weeks ideally.
Do you charge extra for tolls, airport surcharges or GST from Essendon?
No — every fare quoted from Essendon is all-inclusive. CityLink/EastLink tolls, Melbourne Airport pickup fee, meet & greet, 60 minutes wait time, bottled water and 10% GST are all built into the price you see before you confirm. The only optional extras are wait beyond the free allowance and any child seats you add.
Can I book a same-day return trip from Essendon?
Yes — return bookings from Essendon can be combined into one reservation with a small discount on the return leg. The driver holds nearby (or waits with you as hourly hire) so you get the same chauffeur both ways. Ideal for medical appointments, restaurant nights out or event drop-and-collect.
