As a private service, Mobile Companion Taxi can go above and beyond for clients. In addition to transportation services, Christopher is more than happy to provide:
A History of Community Support
The idea for Mobile Companion Taxi began while Christopher worked as a personal driving instructor for students attending Maharishi International University. The university recruited him to join their drive team, picking up students from nearby airports. Taxiing students to campus led him to pursue certification and licensing for an official taxi service.
His license was approved on March 11, 2019, and Mobile Companion Taxi has serviced the Fairfield area ever since. Since the certification, Christopher has built on-call relationships with Jefferson County Hospital and Clinic, Jefferson County Police, Sheriff, and Fire Departments, and local nursing homes in efforts to assist those most in need of a ride.
If someone requires transportation or delivery services and cannot afford it, Mobile Companion Taxi will work with local community services to help accommodate their needs.
