Working Out Your Pickup Time
Start from your departure time, take off two hours for a domestic flight or three for an international one, then take off the drive. For a 9am domestic flight from Macleod you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 36 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 6:20am.
We run 24 hours. Pickups between 5pm and 9am use the evening and overnight rate shown in the table, so an early start costs a little more than a midday one.

Macleod to the terminal is 28.2 km of driving, normally about 24 minutes and nearer 36 in peak hour.
Drivers use M80 Ring Road, a toll free route the whole way. Nothing is added to the 28.2 km fare for road charges.
If your pickup is closer to Bundoora 3083, Greensborough 3088 and Templestowe Lower 3107, those areas have their own pages with their own estimated fares.
We cover all of Macleod 3085, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.
How the Macleod Fare Is Worked Out
The Macleod estimate is not guesswork. By day it is day rate flag fall $5.40 and distance (28.2 km at $2.10 per km) $59.22, which totals $65. We show it as $61 – $75 because the exact street you are picked up from, and the route on the day, move the distance slightly.
Your pickup time sets the rate. A standard taxi from Macleod is typically $65 by day, $72 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $80 on a Friday or Saturday night after 10pm or a public holiday. Your estimate uses the rate for the time you choose when you book. For a fixed price, call or email us and we will agree the fare before you travel.
An SUV from Macleod is $78 – $96, the standard fare plus a $17.80 surcharge, and worth it if you are carrying extra bags or want more legroom. A maxi seating up to eleven is $78 – $96. Travelling with young children? A baby seat is $40 per seat, fitted before your driver arrives, so tell us the age and weight of each child when you book.
Airport to Macleod
Back to Macleod is the same 28.2 km journey. The only addition is the $5.26 airport pickup fee, which is the airport's charge rather than ours. Add your flight number when you book and your driver works to the real landing time.
Your driver collects you from the terminal your flight lands at: Terminal 1 for Qantas domestic, Terminal 2 for international flights, Terminal 3 for Virgin Australia and Terminal 4 for Jetstar and other low cost domestic airlines. Turn your phone on once you are off the plane and your driver confirms the meeting point. Bags on a domestic flight usually take 20 to 30 minutes, and an international arrival through customs takes longer, so book for your landing time and let the flight tracking do the rest.
Add meet and greet for $35 and your driver is waiting inside the arrivals hall with your name on a sign, with an hour of waiting built in.

I use this service twice a month for airport transfers. The service is exemplary and I have no hesitation in recommending them. The drivers are always smart, professional and courteous.

This service takes the stress out my journey and I can rely on them to get me to the airport and home again without issue.
Always a professional, reliable and relaxing ride. Been using them for 5 years and highly recommend.
I commute to Melbourne for work and always use Deep Taxi Services. They only use hi end cars which are always spotless with friendly polite drivers. You can book at the last minute any time and they are there within minutes. No waiting in the Taxi or Uber lines, pick up is from the first level at Melbourne airport. Many of my fares are short trips ( which is cause for aggression / angst with both regular cabs and Uber drivers), it’s no problem with Deep. Have recommended them to all my friends, couldn’t be happier with their service.
Very great service by deep taxi services always on time time and very friendly.highly recommend his service.
I have been using Silver taxi to and from Melbourne airport few times. Their services always top notch. Highly recommended
