Mr Maxi Cab is a taxi service in Auckland based in Manurewa, with standard taxis for up to 4 passengers, maxi vans for up to 11, and mobility taxis with wheelchair space, running 24 hours a day. You can book online or by phone and pay by cash or card.

Which taxi service in Auckland suits my trip?

The right taxi service in Auckland depends on three things: how many people are travelling, how much luggage you've got, and whether anyone needs wheelchair space. Get those right and the rest is easy.

A standard taxi suits solo travellers, couples and small families with a few bags. If there are five of you, or the boot's already full, a maxi van is usually simpler than splitting across two cars. It carries up to 11 passengers, which makes it a good fit for family get-togethers, school and club runs, and groups heading to the same place. Our maxi taxi Auckland page covers the vans in more detail.

How do I book a taxi in Auckland?

You can book online in about a minute, or by phone at any hour. If you've ever typed taxi Auckland into your phone late at night and got a wall of apps and directories, this is the direct route.

On our booking form, choose Car Booking or Maxi Van Booking. Enter your pickup and drop-off, and add stops if you need to collect someone on the way. Select your passengers and bags, choose cash or card, and press Book Now. Need to get home again? You can add a return trip in the same booking. If you need a child car seat, just tick the option on the form.

Mobility bookings go by phone on +64 204555000 so we can plan the trip with you properly. And if you haven't heard from us within 15 minutes of booking, call us. Online forms fail now and then, and we'd rather you phone than stand on the kerb wondering.

How does an Auckland airport taxi work?

Book ahead, tell us your flight details, and your driver meets you at an agreed pickup point after you land. That's the easiest way to get an Auckland airport taxi without queuing or guessing where to stand.

Auckland Airport licenses the companies that can work its taxi ranks, so for arrivals, pre-booking and agreeing the meeting point first is the dependable route. You can check the current rank locations on Auckland Airport's taxis and shuttles page. Leaving is simpler. Any taxi company can drop you at the terminal, and a pre-booked Auckland airport cab from us means your driver is already on the way, whatever time your flight leaves.

That matters most for early flights. Early departures are common, and the last thing you want at 4am is to be refreshing an app. Book the night before, put your flight time in the booking, and we'll plan the pickup around it. Travelling with a big family or a lot of luggage? Choose the maxi van, and everyone, bags included, goes in one vehicle.

Our airport taxi page has more on pickups and timing.

Is there a taxi service in Auckland that runs 24 hours?

Yes. Mr Maxi Cab runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so you can book a late-night ride home, an early-morning airport run, or anything in between. Night shifts, late flights, after-dinner pickups and 5am starts are all normal bookings for us.

Booking ahead is still the safest way, particularly on busy nights when everyone is looking for a ride at the same time. Put your pickup time and address in the form, and we'll take it from there.

Can I get a wheelchair-accessible taxi in Auckland?

Yes. Our mobility taxis take 1 to 6 passengers plus 1 wheelchair, so a wheelchair user can travel with family or a carer in the same vehicle. Because every trip is a little different, mobility bookings are made by phone. Call us on +64 204555000, tell us where you're going and what help you need, and we'll plan it with you. Our mobility taxi service page has more detail.

Which parts of Auckland do you cover?

We're based in Manurewa and cover South Auckland, including Manukau, Papakura, Papatoetoe, Ōtara and Māngere, along with the CBD, the airport and the suburbs in between. If you're not sure we reach your address, give us a call or put it in the booking form.

Local knowledge is the main reason people book us over a faceless app. We know which streets back up after events, where the drop-off bays are, and how long the Southern Motorway really takes at 8am.

Who's behind Mr Maxi Cab, and are the drivers licensed?

We're a Manurewa-based taxi and maxi cab service, and our drivers are licensed. Every taxi driver in New Zealand needs a passenger (P) endorsement on their driver licence, issued through NZTA Waka Kotahi, so it's fair to ask any company to confirm theirs. Ask us, and we'll tell you ours.
