For a chauffeur job in Melbourne, TransfersX allocates a Mercedes E-Class and a chauffeur in advance and holds both for the booking. Door-to-door from the address you give, luggage handled, fare locked at confirmation. From $89 including tolls, fuel, GST and gratuity.
Chauffeur service is what you book when the trip matters. The Mercedes E-Class is dispatched specifically to you, the driver knows your address before they arrive, the fare is fixed at $89+ from the booking. Rideshare can't promise any of those: the vehicle is whatever's nearest, the driver is whoever accepted, the price is whatever the surge algorithm chose. For a chauffeur job in Melbourne, the chauffeur model wins on every measure except ‘does it work for a five-minute ride to the supermarket'.
Why book a real chauffeur in Melbourne instead of premium rideshare? Three working answers. The vehicle class is held for your booking (you booked a Mercedes E-Class, you get a Mercedes E-Class). The fare doesn't move between booking and receipt. The driver is vetted, suited and on payroll — not a marketplace allocation. For chauffeur job, those three matter.
Airport pickups track your flight and arrive 10 minutes before scheduled landing. Melbourne pickups are dispatched 25 minutes ahead of the slot. Punctuality is the discipline behind every other promise.
Your quote is the price you pay. No surge in rain, no rate change on Grand Final night, no surprise tolls. The number on the booking is the number on the receipt.
Every vehicle is owned or leased by us. Less than three years old. Black on black. Detailed before every job. No subcontracting to a stranger's car.
"Booked TransfersX for a 5:30am airport run after burning through three Uber cancellations in a week. The driver was waiting in the building forecourt at 5:25am. Fare to the cent matched the quote. New Mercedes, calm driver, no chat. Bookmarked."
— Anjali, South Yarra"Booked four hours for a hen's day and it ran over by about forty minutes. No fuss and no surge, just the extra time added at the same rate. The driver was good-humoured about the whole thing."
— Georgia, South Melbourne"Two cars for a memorial service out at the cemetery and back to the house afterwards. One invoice, no fuss, and the drivers stayed with us the whole afternoon rather than disappearing between legs."

TransfersX runs chauffeur job as a pre-briefed, pre-allocated operation. The chauffeur knows the pickup address, the gate code, the flight number, the party size, the vehicle class and any specific requests before they leave the depot. The Mercedes E-Class has been detailed that morning. Dispatch leaves 25 minutes ahead of the slot. The booking system tracks the driver's progress to the pickup and adjusts the arrival ETA if traffic shifts.
Vehicles are owned or leased by TransfersX. Maintenance is on our schedule. Detailing is daily. Vehicles are replaced before they hit three years old. The fleet runs Mercedes E-Class, S-Class, V-Class and Sprinter; BMW 5 Series, 7 Series and X7; Audi A6, A8 and Q7; and Range Rover. Each vehicle is finished black on black to a single standard. The Mercedes E-Class for your booking is one of these, not a marketplace stand-in.
Fares from $89 are inclusive at booking and don't shift. CityLink tolls, EastLink tolls, fuel, gratuity, GST — bundled in. No surge. No card swipe at the end of the trip. Corporate accounts billed monthly with single-line tax invoices for travel-policy reporting. The fare on the booking is the fare on the receipt — that consistency is the entire chauffeur-model promise the rideshare model can't structurally make.
Yes. Meet-and-greet by name in arrivals (terminals T1 through T4 at MEL), luggage to the car, direct run back to Melbourne via the standard freeway route. Same fixed $89 fare. Flight is tracked: if the arrival shifts, the pickup time moves with it — no rebooking fee.
Apple Pay, Google Pay, Visa, Mastercard and American Express via Stripe. Corporate accounts can be invoiced monthly. Payment is taken at booking (fare locked); no card swipe at the end of the trip.
Anywhere in postcode 3000 — private residences, hotels, apartment buildings or street addresses. Door-to-door from the kerb or forecourt. Apartment buildings: the chauffeur waits with a discrete sign. Specify the address in the booking; gate code optional.
Yes. Melbourne to Avalon (AVV) runs $209-$269 depending on vehicle class. Avalon sits west of the city, so the drive is longer than the Tullamarine run from most suburbs and is quoted per route. Same flight tracking, same meet-and-greet, same fixed fare.
Melbourne to Melbourne Airport is 22 km via the major freeway route. Typical drive: 22-35 minutes off-peak, longer in Friday-evening peak. We dispatch the chauffeur to leave Melbourne 25 minutes before the slot to absorb traffic surprises.
