Taxi Dingley Village - 24/7 Cab Service (3172)

Dingley Village is one of the closer suburbs in the Kingston corridor to Melbourne Airport, sitting around 43 kilometres from Tullamarine by the most direct route. That puts it in a useful middle position: close enough that an airport fare is affordable, and far enough from the city that a taxi is often the only practical option when you have luggage and an early flight.

Silver Taxi Melbourne covers Dingley Village 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our base is in Clayton, which is roughly 10 minutes from the centre of Dingley Village, so response times here are among the fastest in the Kingston service area.
