Epping is where the Northern Line meets the Metro, and a lot of journeys finish here a few kilometres short of home. Call and a cab meets you at the station, on Rawson Street or at your front door, on a fixed quote.
The railway cuts Epping's centre in two, and that matters when you book a car. On the western side are Rawson Street, Beecroft Road, the Coles and the Epping Club. On the eastern side are the older shops along Oxford Street and Langston Place, with a kiss and ride beside the station. Give us the wrong side and your driver ends up waiting across the tracks from you.
Away from the station, Epping still feels like an old north shore suburb: big gardens, jacarandas in flower along Rawson Street in late spring, and quiet streets around Boronia Park on Bridge Street. The newer apartment towers close to the station bring plenty of pickups too. So do school families, students on their way to Macquarie University along Epping Road, and anyone whose train was replaced by a bus.
A sedan or SUV takes up to four people. For more, book a maxi taxi for groups of up to 11. We fit baby seats and boosters on request, carry pets and parcels, and run airport transfers at any hour. Every trip has a fixed upfront quote with tolls and GST included, and no surge pricing.

Off-peak road estimates. School zones on the streets around Epping and works near the Epping Bridge can add time on weekdays.

The M2 and the Lane Cove Tunnel into the city. Tolls are part of the quote.

Straight along Epping Road. Tell us the building, residence or car park.
North to Westfield Hornsby or Hornsby Hospital, useful when the Northern Line is under trackwork.
West past Carlingford. Tell us which building or entrance you need.
Buses use the stands on Beecroft Road, so we won't block them. These are the spots that work.
| Place | Where we meet you |
|---|---|
| Epping station, east side | The kiss and ride on Langston Place. Epping Bridge works can affect those spaces, so we may confirm a spot nearby. |
| Epping station, west side | Rawson Street, a short walk from the Beecroft Road side of the station. |
| Coles and the Epping Club | Rawson Street. Say which door you are coming out of. |
| Oxford Street shops | Oxford Street itself, on the eastern side, away from the station traffic. |
| Boronia Park | 37 Bridge Street, by the gate. Good after weekend cricket. |
| Epping Aquatic and Leisure Centre | Dence Park on Stanley Road, about a kilometre east of the station. |
The interchange
Epping is one of the few stations where Sydney Trains, intercity services and the Metro all stop. That makes it a great place to change, until trackwork, a late finish or a missed connection leaves you standing on Beecroft Road.
Trains towards Hornsby one way and Strathfield and the city the other. When trackwork brings out replacement buses, a cab home is often the quicker option.
The old Epping to Chatswood line reopened as Metro on 26 May 2019. Metro closures still happen, and we collect from the station when they do.
The bridge carrying Beecroft Road and Carlingford Road over the railway is being replaced. Traffic control comes and goes, so we check the approach before we set off.
Tell us who is travelling when you call. The right car arrives, whether that means an 11 seat maxi, a capsule fitted for a newborn, or the wheelchair accessible vehicle, which should be booked ahead.
Epping to Sydney Airport
Off-peak, an Epping to Sydney Airport taxi takes 40 to 50 minutes. The M2 gets busy early on weekdays, so for a morning flight we set the pickup with that in mind rather than going by an app estimate.
Coming back, add your flight number to the booking and your driver is timed to your landing. See our airport taxi page for terminal pickup details.
Carlingford, Eastwood and Marsfield are covered on the Northern Suburbs taxi page.
Open 24/7
Call for a car from either side of the station or your home, with the fare fixed before you go.
