How to Choose a Chauffeur Service in Melbourne: A 10-Point Checklist
To choose a Melbourne chauffeur service, check CPVV accreditation and insurance, confirm a fixed all-inclusive fare, ask about flight tracking and waiting time, verify the exact vehicle class, and read the cancellation terms. Prefer providers that publish prices and answer these questions in writing.
Ask for the fare in writing, including tolls, airport fees and GST. Confirm how long the chauffeur waits at the airport and whether it is free. Check the cancellation window before paying. A published fare table is a good sign: it shows the provider is confident in its pricing.
The 10-point checklist
- Accreditation: is the operator and driver accredited with Commercial Passenger Vehicles Victoria (CPVV)?
- Insurance: does the vehicle carry commercial passenger insurance?
- Fixed fare: is the price locked at booking, with no surge pricing?
- Inclusions: are tolls, airport access fees and GST in the quote?
- Flight tracking: does the pickup time follow your actual landing time?
- Waiting time: how many free minutes at the airport, and what happens after?
- Vehicle class: can you choose and guarantee the vehicle for your group and luggage?
- Invoicing: do you get a GST tax invoice automatically, and are corporate accounts available?
- Cancellation: what is the free cancellation window?
- Contact: can you reach a real person 24/7 if plans change?

Frequently asked questions
How do I check a Melbourne chauffeur is accredited?
Ask the provider for its accreditation details and check them with Commercial Passenger Vehicles Victoria. Reputable operators supply this on request.
What should be included in a chauffeur quote?
The quote should state the vehicle class, pickup and drop-off, the total fare, and confirm that tolls, airport fees and GST are included.
Should I choose the cheapest chauffeur?
Compare like with like. A low headline price that excludes tolls, parking or waiting time can cost more. Choose the provider with a clear, all-inclusive fixed fare.
