NDIS Transport Assistance in Adelaide

Accessing your community, attending appointments, and visiting friends are essential parts of an independent life. But we understand that transport can be a significant barrier.

Humanity Care’s NDIS Transport Assistance is more than just a ride; it’s a reliable, safe, and friendly service designed to connect you with your community. Our local Adelaide drivers are trained to provide door-to-door support, ensuring you get where you need to go safely and on time.

Your Reliable Door-to-Door Transport Solution

Our NDIS transport service is designed to be flexible and to fit your life. We don’t just pick you up and drop you off. We can provide a support worker to assist you from the moment you leave your home to the moment you return.

Our drivers are not just drivers; they are trained support workers who can assist you:

  • From your home into the vehicle
  • Out of the vehicle to your appointment or activity
  • During your community outing (if required)
  • Safely back into your home

Where Can We Take You?

Our service is designed to support your NDIS goals and daily living needs. We can provide transport to almost any destination in the greater Adelaide area.

Type of Travel Examples of Destinations & Support
Health & Wellness Doctor's appointments, specialist visits, therapy sessions (Physio, OT), or the chemist.
Community & Social Visiting friends and family, attending social groups, going to a café, or community events.
Daily Living Going to the supermarket, local shopping centres (like Westfield Marion or TTP), or the bank.
Work & Study Travelling to your workplace, TAFE, university, or other educational programs.
Recreation Getting to the park, the movies, the library, or your local sports club.
Independence isn't just about what you do at home. It's about having the freedom to go where you want, when you want. We're here to make that journey possible.

Who is this Service For?

Our transport assistance is perfect for NDIS participants who are unable to use public transport or other forms of transport due to their disability.

We cater to a wide range of needs and can provide vehicles that are:

  • Accessible: Including options for wheelchairs and other mobility aids.
  • Comfortable & Safe: All vehicles are modern, clean, and fully insured.
  • Private: This is not a “taxi” service; it is a dedicated, pre-booked support service just for you.

Is NDIS Transport Support Right for You?

  • Do you find public transport difficult or impossible to use?
  • Do you need to attend regular medical or therapy appointments?
  • Do you want to participate more in community activities but lack transport?
  • Do you require a support worker to assist you while travelling?
  • Are you looking for a reliable, safe alternative to standard taxis or ride-shares?

If you answered yes to any of these, our transport service is designed for you.

Understanding NDIS Funding for Transport

Funding for transport in your NDIS plan can be confusing. It’s typically funded in one of two ways:

  1. Core Supports (Assistance with Social & Community Participation): If you need a support worker to travel with you and actively assist you during an outing (e.g., help you shop), the support worker’s time and travel can be claimed from this budget.
  2. Specific Transport Funding (Core Supports): In some cases, your NDIS plan may include a separate, specific budget for transport. This is for participants who cannot use public transport due to their disability.

We're Here to Help You Understand

Don’t worry about the complexity. Our Adelaide team can sit with you and your NDIS plan to help you understand exactly how your transport funding works. We can also provide clear quotes to your Support Coordinator or Plan Manager.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is this different from the NDIS transport allowance?

Yes. The “transport allowance” is a periodic payment some participants receive in their bank account to help with general travel costs. Our service is a provider-managed transport service where we provide the vehicle and driver (support worker) and claim the cost directly from your NDIS plan, just like any other support.

Can you help me with my groceries when we get to the shops?

Absolutely! This is a key part of our service. Our driver is also your support worker. They can assist you with your shopping, carry your bags, and help you unpack them when you get home. This is funded under “Community Participation” or “Assistance with Daily Life.”

Do you have wheelchair-accessible vehicles?

Yes, we have access to a range of wheelchair-accessible vehicles (WAVs) to ensure we can meet your specific mobility needs. Please let us know your requirements when you book.

How much notice do I need to give to book a trip?

We recommend booking as far in advance as possible, especially for regular appointments. We can often accommodate trips with 24-48 hours’ notice, but advanced booking ensures we can lock in your preferred time and support worker.
