Southside Travel provides pre-booked wheelchair accessible taxis in Southampton for local journeys, hospital appointments, airport transfers and cruise transfers. Our drivers take the time to help passengers in and out safely and are happy to handle mobility aids and luggage.

Because every passenger’s needs are different, please tell us about the wheelchair or mobility scooter when you book: its size and weight, whether the passenger will stay seated in the chair or can transfer to a car seat, and how many companions are travelling. We will then confirm the right vehicle.

Where we take wheelchair users

• Local journeys around Southampton, Eastleigh, Totton and Romsey
• Hospital and clinic appointments, with return pickups
• Southampton Central station and Southampton Airport
• All five Southampton cruise terminals
• Long-distance trips to Heathrow, Gatwick and London

Accessible cruise transfers

Cruise lines provide assistance once you are inside the terminal. We take you right to the terminal drop-off point, unload your bags and help you to the entrance. Tell us your ship and terminal when booking.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to book a wheelchair taxi in advance?

Yes, please. Accessible vehicles are limited, so booking ahead lets us make sure the right vehicle is available.

Can a companion or carer travel too?

Yes. Tell us how many people are travelling so we can confirm the seating.

Is there an extra charge for wheelchair users?

You get a fixed price for the journey before you book, the same way as any other fare.
