In addition to our regular taxi service, First Direct offers a number of specialised services to make your life easier:

  • First Direct “Eco-Cabs” is Christchurch's original fleet of fuel-efficient, low greenhouse gas emission taxis. The rapidly growing Eco-Cab Fleet has the most environmentally friendly taxis in the city to help reduce your carbon footprint. Currently all vehicles in the fleet are hybrid (petrol/electric) 4 and 6 seater cars and vans. Ask the operator for an Eco-Cab (booking recommended).
  • Carbon Reduction Services: If your organisation is reducing its carbon output perhaps we can help in a number of ways. Contact Nick Jackman to discuss your requirements. This service is free of charge.

  • Group Transport & Travel Planning:
    • Do you have groups of people that need to move from multiple pick-up points to multiple drop-off points?
    • Does your group need a shuttle to move quickly and easily to and from the airport or around the city?
    • Do you need to get everyone home safely after the function?
    • Is public transport letting your employees down when they commute?
    Let us relieve the stress of planning your organisation's travel plan or the transport for your next event. Taking a cab can be more cost-effective than you think. We are Christchurch's leading experts in shared transport and will always plan the most advantageous routes for you at no extra cost.
  • Tours & Sightseeing: Our cars and vans take groups of up to 11 people anywhere you want to go. Winery tours, rest home outings, sightseeing tours of Canterbury or beyond - you name it we'll take you there and back. Let one of our experienced drivers show you the sights.
  • School Transport: We have the biggest fleet of minivans in Christchurch, perfect for smaller school outings, such as senior classes on sports trips or work experience. We can do multiple pick-ups too if required

Other ways we can help - please ask our operator when you call if you would like:
