Why choose us?

Practical hire support from quote to collection.

The booking team confirms the important details up front, including availability, driver rules, mileage, delivery and any specialist vehicle requirements.

Free delivery and collection

Ask for the vehicle to be delivered and collected from a suitable UK mainland address, such as a home, workplace, hotel, station, airport or event venue.

Address, access, timing, ID and driver checks are confirmed before booking.

Unlimited mileage

Most rentals are arranged with unlimited mileage, which is useful for longer journeys, multi-stop work and travel outside the immediate local area.

Courier use and truck hire can carry fair-use or pro-rata mileage rules; confirm mileage before booking.

UK mainland coverage

Vehicles can be arranged through a national supplier network, so regional pages can support local journeys as well as longer UK mainland travel.

Availability depends on the vehicle type, address and booking date.

European cover

European travel cover can be arranged on eligible hires when the journey is declared before travel.

Additional charges and restrictions can apply; one-way European rental is not offered.

One-way rentals

One-way hire can be requested when the vehicle needs to be returned somewhere other than the starting point.

UK mainland only on eligible bookings; route, cost and return arrangements are confirmed by phone.

Insurance included

Standard rental insurance is included with the hire, with driver requirements, excess, deposit and optional waiver details explained before booking.

Goods in transit are not covered by the standard vehicle insurance.

Company own insurance discount

Customers using approved company own insurance can ask whether a reduced hire rate applies.

Own-insurance acceptance and discount eligibility must be confirmed before booking.

Wide range available

Cars, vans, minibuses and trucks are available in multiple sizes, transmissions and configurations, so the booking team can match the vehicle to the journey.

Exact model, size and transmission are subject to local availability.

Frequently asked questions

Minibus Hire questions
What is the minimum age for a 15 or 17 seat minibus?
Drivers for 15 and 17 seat minibuses usually need to be at least 25 and must have the correct D1 entitlement on their licence. Smaller people carriers and minibuses can have different requirements, so driver age and licence details must be checked before booking.
Do all minibuses use the same licence rules?
No. Larger 15 and 17 seat minibuses can need different age, licence and D1 entitlement checks. Confirm the driver, passenger count and luggage needs before choosing the vehicle.
Which minibus seating options are available?
Common options include 7, 9, 12, 15 and 17 seat vehicles. Availability depends on dates, driver eligibility, luggage space and local fleet availability.
Booking, cover and general questions
Does the rental cost include insurance?
Yes. Standard rental insurance is included with the vehicle hire. The booking team will explain the excess, driver requirements and any optional collision damage waiver before the booking is agreed. Standard vehicle insurance does not cover goods carried inside the vehicle.
Are there extra charges for mileage?
Most rentals include unlimited mileage, subject to the fair-use policy confirmed before booking. Courier work is excluded, and larger commercial vehicles can have separate monthly or pro-rata mileage limits, so mileage terms should always be checked for the chosen vehicle.
Can the vehicle be delivered to a requested location?
Yes. Delivery and collection can usually be arranged across the UK mainland. The team will confirm the address, timing, access, identification and driver checks before the vehicle is delivered or collected.
Can the vehicle be used in Europe?
European cover can be arranged for eligible hires when requested before travel. It is an optional extra and may involve additional charges and restrictions. Vehicles must not be taken outside the approved area without the booking team's agreement.
Do you provide one-way vehicle hire?
One-way rental can be arranged on many UK mainland bookings when the route and vehicle type allow it. One-way hire is not offered to offshore islands or into Europe, and the cost and return point must be confirmed before booking.
Do you offer zero insurance excess?
No. Zero excess is not offered as standard. A collision damage waiver may be available to reduce the excess liability, and the booking team will explain the options that apply to the selected vehicle.
How can I book?
Bookings are handled by phone. Call the booking team during opening hours with the vehicle type, hire dates, delivery or collection details, driver information and journey requirements.
How much is the deposit?
A deposit is normally charged when the vehicle is collected or delivered to cover items such as fuel, fines, parking tickets and damage costs. The exact deposit and refund process are confirmed before the hire is agreed.
Do I need to refuel the vehicle before return or collection?
Yes. Vehicles should normally be returned with the agreed fuel level. If fuel is missing, the cost can be charged or deducted from the deposit according to the hire terms confirmed before booking.
Can I use a credit card to book?
Credit cards and other business payment methods may be accepted, including corporate purchasing cards and BACS transfer where approved. Some payment methods can be subject to checks before the booking is confirmed.
What details are required to book a vehicle?
The team will need the preferred vehicle or size, hire duration, delivery or collection date and time, driver and additional driver details, contact information, address details and relevant postcodes. If you are unsure which vehicle is suitable, the team can help narrow the options.
What licence requirements apply?
Drivers must present a valid driving licence. A licence held for at least one year is usually required, and two years is preferred. Provisional and expired licences are not accepted. Larger minibuses, trucks and specialist vehicles can have extra entitlement checks.
How modern are the vehicles?
The fleet is regularly updated and maintained, with the aim of supplying modern, reliable vehicles. Exact make, model, age and specification depend on availability at the time of booking.
Can I hire a GPS or satnav?
Satnav equipment may be available as an optional extra. Ask the booking team when arranging the vehicle so availability and cost can be confirmed.
What size vehicle can I drive?
That depends on the licence categories shown on the back of your driving licence and the vehicle's weight or seating capacity. Standard UK category B entitlement usually covers vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes and up to 9 seats, but larger minibuses, trucks and specialist vehicles may need extra entitlement.
