Fixed price
Taxi Boostedt: a fixed price to and from Neumünster
Boostedt lies a good eight kilometres south of Neumünster and has its own railway station, so in the daytime the train usually does the job. It stops early. After the last evening train, on Sundays when the village bus does not run at all, with shopping in the rain, and whenever you need to go from one front door to another, we drive. The price is agreed before you get in, and our office is staffed around the clock.
As soon as both addresses are chosen, you continue automatically.

Where Boostedt actually is
Boostedt is a village in Schleswig-Holstein, the northernmost German state, in the Kreis Segeberg. A Kreis is a rural district, the layer of government between the village and the state, and this one has its seat in Bad Segeberg to the east. The village sits a good eight kilometres south of Neumünster, which is the nearest town of any size, and just under sixty kilometres north of Hamburg. Kiel and the Baltic coast are the other way, to the north.
For a visitor the useful thing to understand is the scale. Boostedt is not a suburb of Neumünster. There are open fields between the two, the road out crosses them, and in winter that stretch is the first to ice over. The village has its own shops, doctors, pharmacies, a church, a school for younger children and a station on the railway. It does not have a hospital, and it does not have a school beyond the Mittlere Reife, the intermediate leaving certificate that pupils take at around sixteen. For a clinic, for the sixth form, for the cinema and for most jobs, people leave the village.
We are a taxi firm from Neumünster, based at Rendsburger Straße 41, and Boostedt is one of the places we drive to every single day. The drive out to collect you is not charged, whichever street in Boostedt you live on. You can book through the form on this page, or call 04321 22200, which is +49 4321 22200 if you are dialling from outside Germany.
The AKN train, and the hour at which it stops
Boostedt has its own station on the A2 line of the AKN, a regional railway company that runs its own lines in Schleswig-Holstein alongside Deutsche Bahn. The connection into town is short: nine minutes to the Hauptbahnhof, the main station in Neumünster, with no change on the way. On weekdays the A2 runs once an hour towards Neumünster at minute 14 past the hour, and in the morning, between just before five and just after eight, several extra services are added. If you commute in daylight, you do not need a taxi for that, and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise.
The point where it tips over comes in the evening. German timetables use the 24 hour clock, and the numbers matter here, so read them carefully. The last A2 towards Neumünster leaves Boostedt at 22.14, which is 10.14 in the evening. The last one back out to Boostedt leaves Neumünster at 22.33. After that nothing stands on that track again until early the next morning. There is one exception: on the night into Saturday and the night into Sunday there is a further departure from Neumünster at 00.33.
So the practical rule for a visitor is simple. Anything that ends after about half past ten in the evening, a meal, a concert, a late shift, a delayed flight arrival, has no train at the end of it. That is the hour we exist for. Timetables also change, and the times written on this page are the state of things in the late summer of 2026, so check them yourself before you rely on a return journey.
The bus gives up even earlier
Bus line 8 of the Stadtwerke Neumünster, the municipal utility company that also runs the town buses, serves the village too. Depending on which stop you use it takes 24 to 27 minutes to the ZOB, the central bus station in Neumünster. On weekdays the last departure towards Neumünster is shortly before 20.00, and coming the other way it is worse: the last bus out of Neumünster back to Boostedt has already gone at half past seven in the evening. On Sundays line 8 does not run at all. At the stop called Kirche, by the church, there is not one single departure listed on a Sunday.
The two other lines are school services in everything but name. The 7920 runs to Wahlstedt, Heidmühlen and Bimöhlen, the 7921 to Groß Kummerfeld, and both hang on the school timetable. They are no use to anybody in the evening, and they are no use to anybody who is not a pupil.
Then there is the walk to the station itself, which is the part people forget when they look at a map. If you live in the Waldsiedlung, out at the Flugsand, up in Moltsfelde, or on the old barracks site on Von-dem-Borne-Straße, you have a solid walk ahead of you before you even reach Bahnhofstraße, in the dark and with the wind coming across open fields. Those are the gaps we fill: after the last train, on Sundays, when the shopping is heavy, and whenever the journey needs to run from a front door in Boostedt to a front door in Neumünster.
The streets we drive to in the village
Boostedt has no official Ortsteile, the formal village districts that many German municipalities are divided into. It is simply one place. But it is a spread out one, and the address makes all the difference to how long the ride takes and where the driver stops. Tell us the street and the house number and we come to the door rather than to a rough area.
The addresses that come up most often are these. Neumünsterstraße, with the Edeka Grümmer supermarket, Aldi, Netto and the BAUDI market. Bahnhofstraße, with the Sparkasse, which is the local savings bank, the filling station and the Sportpark. The Dorfring, with the VR Bank and Hof Lübbe. And the Twiete, where the school, the sports hall, the canteen, the village library, the Volkshochschule, which is the adult education centre, the Amt offices and the police station all sit within a few steps of each other. Twiete is a Low German word for a narrow lane, and it is the actual street name, not a description.
The Amt Boostedt-Rickling has its offices on the Twiete. An Amt is a shared administration that several small municipalities run together, so this is where residents go for the paperwork a town hall would normally handle. We drive there mostly in the morning, because that is when the counter is open, with an extra opening on Tuesday afternoon.
Doctors, pharmacies, care homes and children
The Gemeinschaftspraxis, the group practice where several doctors work under one roof, is a regular destination, and so is the Löwen-Apotheke on the street called Zur Ziegelei. We also drive to the Center Apotheke on Neumünsterstraße and to the dental practices on Bahnhofstraße and on Friedrichswalder Straße. Apotheke means pharmacy, and in Germany it is a separate shop with a counter and a pharmacist, not a shelf inside a supermarket.
Older passengers make up a large share of what we do here. We drive to the Senioren-Residenz Am Flugsand, to Haus Weitsicht on Bergstraße and to the day care centre on Feldstraße, often with a walking frame in the boot and with help getting in and out of the car. If you are booking on behalf of a relative, say so when you book, because it changes which driver we send and how much time we allow.
We also take children to the protestant Kita on the Dorfring and to the second Kita address on Von-dem-Borne-Straße when the household cannot manage the run itself that morning. Kita is short for Kindertagesstätte, the German day nursery. These are the small, unglamorous journeys that keep a village working, and they are most of our week in Boostedt.
What brings people to Boostedt from outside
Not every ride is a local one. The Sportpark on Bahnhofstraße, which everybody here calls the Waldstadion, the forest stadium, pulls in visiting teams and their supporters. The disc golf course run by SV Boostedt, the village sports club, has grown to 22 holes and draws players from well beyond the district. Disc golf is played with flying discs thrown at metal baskets, and a group turning up for a round tends to arrive with a lot of bags. The tennis club has its courts on the Mühlenweg.
The Bartholomäus church stands on a street literally named Bei der Kirche, by the church, which makes it easy to find and easy to explain to a driver. Hof Lübbe, a farm on the Dorfring that doubles as a venue, hosts concerts, afternoons for older residents and family celebrations. And the Waldparkplatz, the forest car park, is where we drop walkers and riders heading into the Boostedter Berge, the Halloher Gehege or out towards the Kuhlentorfer Moor.
On the business side, the usual addresses are the Industriestraße and the Energiezentrum. Then there is the old Rantzau site on Von-dem-Borne-Straße, a former barracks that now holds several separate institutions: the Landesunterkunft, a reception centre run by the state, the Justizvollzugsschule, the training school for the prison service, and the Katastrophenschutzlager, a civil protection supply depot. It is a large site with more than one entrance, which matters when you book. Tell us which gate you are standing at.
The route from Neumünster to Boostedt
From the Hauptbahnhof in Neumünster into the centre of Boostedt is a good eight kilometres, about thirteen minutes on the usual route. We leave town over the Kuhberg and past the Großflecken, the large square in the middle of Neumünster, then take Altonaer Straße and Boostedter Straße. Those are the K 18 and the K 14, district roads, and at the parish boundary the K 14 simply becomes Neumünsterstraße. From there the road runs past Moltsfelde and the spot known as the Springender Hirsch, the leaping stag, through the village to Bahnhofstraße. If you get in at the Großflecken rather than at the station, you are a few hundred metres and roughly a minute closer. The municipality itself describes its village centre as eight kilometres from the centre of Neumünster, and that matches what the meter shows.
This is country road with village through-roads, not a stretch of motorway, which is why the journey time here swings around much less than it does on the A 7. What does stretch it is rush hour traffic on Altonaer Straße, roadworks in the village through-road, and in winter ice on the open field between the edge of town and Moltsfelde. None of that changes what you pay, because the price is agreed in advance.
If you are coming from the south or the east, the road to use is the B 205, a Bundesstraße or federal trunk road, which passes Boostedt with an exit of its own. From that exit it is only a few minutes to the Designer Outlet shopping centre on the edge of Neumünster, and eastwards the B 205 carries on towards Bad Segeberg. The motorway is reached at the Neumünster-Süd junction of the A 7, roughly seven kilometres from Boostedt, and that is the way we go for airport runs.
When we drive to Boostedt most often
The largest single block of work is medical, because Boostedt has no clinic of its own. Anyone admitted to hospital, sent to an outpatient department or booked in for follow up ends up at the FEK, the Friedrich-Ebert-Krankenhaus on Friesenstraße in Neumünster, a good nine kilometres and around a quarter of an hour from the village centre. We also drive to Rickling, to the Segeberger Kliniken by the Kurpark in Bad Segeberg, and to Bad Bramstedt. Discharges do not wait for the next A2, which is exactly why the wards telephone us instead.
The second block is evenings and nights. A shift in a Neumünster works, the cinema, the Stadthalle, the Holstenhallen, which are the exhibition and event halls, a birthday at Hof Lübbe, a club evening at the Sportlertreff by the Sportpark. All of that ends after half past ten, the train has gone by then, and the way back to Boostedt exists only on four wheels.
The third block is pupils and apprentices. Beyond the Mittlere Reife there is no school left on the Twiete, so every further school is in Neumünster, and anyone with afternoon lessons or a work placement no longer fits the school buses on lines 7920 and 7921. On weekdays we also drive commuters, since roughly two thirds of working residents of Boostedt have their job outside the municipality. The traffic runs the other way as well, with staff coming in to the site on Von-dem-Borne-Straße, and an early or late shift there is badly served by bus and train. On top of that come appointments in Bad Segeberg, where the district administration, the vehicle registration office and the local court all sit, and airport runs to Hamburg, for which we allow a good forty minutes from Boostedt.
A fixed price instead of the meter
Boostedt does not belong to the Pflichtfahrgebiet of Neumünster. That is the compulsory service area in which a German taxi has to accept every fare and has to charge the official municipal tariff, no more and no less. Besides the city itself, that area covers only Tasdorf, Bönebüttel, Padenstedt, Ehndorf, Wasbek, Großharrie, Rendswühren and Schillsdorf. Boostedt borders the city directly but is not on that list, and because of that we are allowed to agree a fixed price with you before the journey. You see it on this page and again in the booking form, before you confirm anything.
In practice that means the risk of the road sits with us, not with you. If we are stuck behind a tractor in the village through-road on a Friday evening, or roadworks send us the long way round over the B 205, your price does not move. The drive out to your address in Boostedt is not charged, and normal travel luggage is not charged either.
Inside Neumünster itself the rules are different and the official city tariff applies, calculated by the Taxameter, the calibrated meter fitted in every German taxi. On those journeys we are not permitted to set a price of our own at all. Payment for the Boostedt run can be made in cash or by card in the car, or online in advance, before the car pulls up outside your door.

Frequently asked questions
Do you drive once the last AKN train from Neumünster has gone?
Yes, and it is our most common journey to Boostedt. On weekdays the last A2 leaves Neumünster at 22.33, and after that there is nothing until early the next morning; only on the night into Saturday and the night into Sunday is there one more at 00.33. Our office at Rendsburger Straße 41 is staffed around the clock, so we will also take you at two in the morning right to the door in the Waldsiedlung, on the Stückenredder or up in Moltsfelde. Timetables are a snapshot and they change, so check yours before you count on the last train home.
How long does the ride from Neumünster to Boostedt take?
From the Hauptbahnhof to the village centre we allow a good quarter of an hour for the roughly nine kilometres over Altonaer Straße and Boostedter Straße. From the Großflecken it is a shade shorter. In the morning and late afternoon rush hour a few minutes are added, and the same applies if your address is out at the edge of the village, for instance on the Vossbarg, the Dannbarg or Latendorfer Straße. From Boostedt to the FEK hospital on Friesenstraße it is about fourteen minutes.
Do you drive to Boostedt on Sundays, when no bus runs?
Yes. On Sundays bus line 8 does not run in Boostedt at all, which leaves only the AKN, hourly at minute 14 towards Neumünster and at minute 33 back again. Anyone who does not live near the station is more or less stuck without a car that day. We drive seven days a week, so that includes the ten o'clock service at the Bartholomäus church, a match at the Sportpark, a visit to a relative at Haus Weitsicht or the Residenz Am Flugsand, and the ride home again in the evening.
Will you take me to hospital and back to Boostedt afterwards?
Yes. There is no clinic in Boostedt itself. To the Friedrich-Ebert-Krankenhaus on Friesenstraße in Neumünster is a good nine kilometres, and we drive just as readily to Rickling, to the Segeberger Kliniken by the Kurpark and to Bad Bramstedt. Tell us when you book if you need help as far as the reception desk, or into the flat on Feldstraße or the Dorfring, or if a walking frame or a wheelchair is coming along. For a Krankenfahrt, a journey to treatment that a doctor has prescribed and that your health insurer may cover, everything you need to know is on our page about medical transport.
Will a disc golf group and its bags fit into one car?
People rarely turn up at the course by the Sportpark alone. It is usually a round of four to eight players with bags full of discs. Up to four passengers travel in a normal car; from five upwards we send a Großraumtaxi, a larger vehicle that takes up to eight people with their equipment. The same goes for the tennis club courts on the Mühlenweg and for visiting teams heading to the Waldstadion on Bahnhofstraße. Enter the number of passengers in the booking form and it will price the right vehicle straight away.
Will you collect me at the old barracks site on Von-dem-Borne-Straße?
Yes, we serve every address in Boostedt, including Von-dem-Borne-Straße, the Industriestraße, the Springender Hirsch and the houses up in Moltsfelde at the northern end. Give us the house number when you book, and on a large site also the gate or entrance you will be standing at, so the driver is not hunting for you. For Boostedt you simply enter the street and house number in the form, and the price for the journey appears on screen as you do. If you would rather speak to somebody, the number is 04321 22200.
How far is Boostedt from Hamburg and from Hamburg airport?
Boostedt lies just under sixty kilometres north of Hamburg. We join the motorway at the Neumünster-Süd junction of the A 7, about seven kilometres from the village, and for a run to Hamburg airport we allow a good forty minutes from a Boostedt address. The airport sits on the northern edge of the city, so it is the closer of the two destinations. For an early flight we would normally collect you well before the first AKN of the day runs, which is one of the reasons people book a car for it rather than trying to piece the trip together by train.
Can I book from abroad, and what do you need from me?
Yes. Use the form on this page, or telephone +49 4321 22200, which is the international form of our Neumünster number. What we need is the pickup address with the house number, the date and time, and the number of passengers, plus a mobile number the driver can reach you on. If you are arriving on a flight or a train, give us the flight or train number as well, because then a delay is our problem to solve rather than yours. The price for a Boostedt journey is agreed before you confirm and does not change afterwards.
I am arriving by train at Neumünster. Can you meet me and drive me to Boostedt?
Yes, and this is a common booking. Order the car for the arrival time of your train at the Hauptbahnhof and the driver will be waiting outside when you come out. It is a good eight kilometres from there into the village, about thirteen minutes. Normal travel luggage is included in the fixed price, so suitcases cost nothing extra. If your train is running late, ring the office on the way and we will move the car back; that is easier for everyone than standing in the rain on Bahnhofstraße at the other end.
How do I pay for a journey to Boostedt?
Cash or card in the car, or online in advance before the car sets off. Because Boostedt lies outside the compulsory service area of Neumünster, the price for this route is agreed beforehand rather than run up on the meter, so you know the figure before you get in. Inside Neumünster itself the official city tariff applies instead, worked out by the calibrated Taxameter, and there no driver is allowed to quote a price of their own. If you need a receipt for an employer or an insurer, ask the driver and you will get one in the car.
