Frequently asked questions about booking, rides and invoicing
How can I book a ride?
You can book Aargauer Taxi online in three short steps via “Request a ride” or by phone on 076 225 23 23, around the clock. After your request, you receive a binding confirmation with a booking number.
Where can I find your taxi, do you have a taxi rank?
Yes. Our fixed taxi rank is at Lenzburg station. If our car is there, simply get in. If it is out on a ride, call 076 225 23 23 or send a WhatsApp message; we pick you up at the station or at any other address. Planned rides are best booked ahead, and we confirm a fixed pick-up time. The company's registered office is at Zürcherstrasse 46 in Windisch.
Can I book a ride for someone else?
Yes. In the request, under “Details”, choose the option “For someone else” and enter the passenger's name and phone number. This is how relatives book doctor's appointments or shopping trips for their parents, for example; the confirmation and the invoice go to the person who made the booking.
Are recurring rides possible?
Yes. State the frequency and the weekdays in your request, or arrange a series of recurring appointments by phone. Companies and institutions plan series via their business account.
Can I book a return trip?
Yes, in a single request. We schedule the return ride at a fixed time or on call after your appointment, if you state this in your request.
Do you offer patient transport?
Yes. Aargauer Taxi drives patients from the Lenzburg, Aarau, Brugg and Baden area to doctor's appointments, to hospital, to dialysis or to therapy, helps them get in and out and, on request, escorts them to the registration desk. The passenger travels seated in a regular vehicle; this is not an ambulance transport.
Is patient transport a medical ambulance transport?
No. We are not an emergency service and do not provide medical care. Patient transport is for people who can travel seated in a regular, suitable vehicle. Please check directly with your health insurer whether it will cover any costs.
Will the driver escort me to the registration desk?
Yes, by arrangement. In the request, under “What helps the passenger?”, choose escort to the registration desk. The driver will then accompany you to the reception of the practice or hospital.
Can my company pay by monthly invoice?
Yes. With a business account, you receive a monthly collective invoice for all rides, split by cost centre on request.
Can cost centres be specified?
Yes. For every ride, you can enter a cost centre or order reference. It appears on the trip overview and on the invoice.
Do you offer express and courier rides?
Yes. Aargauer Taxi delivers documents, keys, small parcels and spare parts in the Lenzburg, Aarau, Brugg and Baden area directly to the destination without reloading, with proof of handover. Express rides subject to availability; standing orders for companies can be planned.
Can I pre-book an airport transfer?
Yes. Aargauer Taxi drives you from the Lenzburg, Aarau, Brugg and Baden area to Zurich Airport and picks you up there again, as a return trip with flight number and luggage details. We give you the price in advance as a binding quote.
