Transportation be liable for any loss of profits, business, or for any indirect or consequential loss
whatsoever.
All luggage and personal items are carried entirely at your own risk. NYNJ Taxi Corp DBA NYC

7. HOW DO WE CHARGE FOR A ROUND TRIP
When reserving a round trip, NYNJ Taxi Corp DBA NYC Wheelchair Transportation will create one
confirmation which will only be charged once. This means that the initial quote sent by NYNJ Taxi Corp
DBA NYC Wheelchair Transportation only applies to one way and the receipt that we issue to you clearly
states so. To further put this into perspective, the routing information entails only a pick-up address and a
drop-off address which is covered by the cost in the description for example “each way amounts to 1X
188.0.” At the point that you acknowledge this and submit payment information, NYNJ Taxi Corp DBA
NYC Wheelchair Transportation has the liberty to charge for this one way and will further proceed to
create a return trip confirmation with a unique number which will also be charged as well. Based on the
foregoing NYNJ Taxi Corp DBA NYC Wheelchair Transportation will issue you with two receipts.
At the time that NYNJ Taxi Corp DBA NYC Wheelchair Transportation is creating the information, it is a
necessity that we save the information alongside a pick-up time therefore we recommend that unless you
are requesting a specific pick up time from NYNJ Taxi Corp DBA NYC Wheelchair Transportation, we
will not come for the return trip time as indicated in the return confirmation. In the alternative, the
confirmation will exist in a unique status where NYNJ Taxi Corp DBA NYC Wheelchair Transportation
will wait for you to contact us when ready for the return trip. This acts as a measure of ensuring our
customers do not pay waiting fees in the event they are not ready.
8. WRONG ADDRESS
In case we arrive at the address supplied by the customer, and we find out that this address is wrong, we
will update the correct address in the reservation, the customer will be responsible to pay the difference
cost due to the address change if any.
9. PRODUCT NOT AS DESCRIBED
When taking your reservation, we make sure to ask for all the details we need to perform your transport or
other services requested by you, the right way to perform the job, for example, but not limited to: A.
which vehicle to use, B. Which gear we use to perform the job, C. How many staff members will perform
the job is reserved to the dispatch manager to decide. Still, this is our responsibility to execute the job in a
professional and safe way, best suited to the conditions described by the booking person that booked this
trip/job. You agree not to dispute the charge for this job/ride, even if you do not agree with the decision of
how to execute this job by the dispatch manager
10. LATE ARRIVAL OF AMBULETTE OR AMBULANCE
We always plan ahead of the driver's route and make new reservations only if the timeline works, we will
never take new reservations if we know that the driver will be delayed for the agreed pick-up time. In rare
cases, when a patient that is riding with the driver that is scheduled to pick you up, has a medical
emergency, we will rush the patient to the nearest hospital, or ground the vehicle and wait for an
emergency unit to arrive and treat that rider. In this case, you understand that the driver will be late for the
agreed pick-up time as agreed.
11. PENDING PICK UP (HOSPITAL DISCHARGE ETC)
When you’re scheduling an Ambulette or an Ambulance service for a hospital discharge or transfer, or
any other transport where you not yet sure when will you be available for that pick-up, we will reserve the
transportation and send you a receipt at a random time, (as we need to select the exact time to be able to
save and create your reservation) but in our end, this ride will be marked as “Pending Pick-Up” that
means that we will not attempt to pick up at the time stated in the reservation, but we will wait for your
call to request the pick-up, in this case, as soon as you call to request the pick-up, we will send your
request for dispatch, and wait for the closest driver to become available for your pick-up, you understand
that each driver has a pre-scheduled route, and must attend to those rides first, we commit to you, to give
you priority and service you first, before servicing new reservations received from the same day of the
agreed service date.
There is no set time that we can guarantee, but in most cases, if your pick-up address is within NYC, wait
time can take one hour or more, and outside the NYC metro area can take 2 hours or more, but again time
may exceed one hour even in the NYC metro area.
12. BY HOUR SERVICE
The minimum time required for “By the hour service” is 3 hours, if the trip will last more than 3 hours,
we will add additional hours to the reservation and charge the card on file.
13. NEVER OFFER PAYMENT TO DRIVERS
Base rate and gratuity are collected at checkout; this is due to safety reasons and to make your experience
smooth by not having to worry about paying the driver on the day of your transport. Please never offer
payments to the driver as they can be viewed as a solicitation of our drivers for private rides outside of
NYNJ Taxi Corp DBA NYC Wheelchair Transportation services.
14. CAR TYPE
We offer regular or wheelchair-accessible vehicles, 3 Passengers, and up to 8 passengers in a wheelchair
accessible or up to 56 passengers in a regular passenger.
