Every booking follows the same process whether it's a single saloon transfer or a 16-seat minibus for a wedding party: you tell us your group size, route and date; we give you a fixed price back; and the details are confirmed before the day, not worked out on it.

For airport and port jobs, this includes flight or sailing tracking so a delay doesn't cost you the booking. For events and weddings, it includes planning any return leg at the time of booking rather than as an afterthought later.

Our Process at a Glance

How do I get a quote?

Call or use the quote form with your group size, route and date.

When do I get a fixed price?

Before you confirm — not an estimate that changes on the day.

Can I add a return leg?

Yes, planned in at the time of booking, not arranged separately later.

What You Can Check Before You Book

Licensed under Tonbridge & Malling BC

Every driver and vehicle is licensed by TMBC, not a neighbouring authority.

Fixed group quote agreed before travel

Priced against your confirmed group size and job, not a moving estimate.

One driver, one vehicle, one group

Your group travels together instead of splitting across separate cars.

Pre-booked, not street-hailed

Private hire vehicles here must be pre-booked through the operator, per TMBC rules.

How Many Seats Do You Need?

Quick check before you call — this suggests a vehicle size for your booking, it isn't a price quote.

How Booking Works

  1. Send your group size, route and date. Use the quote form on this site or call directly — this decides which vehicle fits.
  2. Get a fixed price back. The quote reflects your actual passengers and luggage, not a generic estimate.
  3. Confirm pickup point and time. For groups, we agree a single loading point where possible.
  4. Share flight or sailing details for airport/port jobs. This lets us track delays and adjust the pickup automatically.
  5. Driver arrives and confirms headcount. This avoids the vehicle leaving before everyone's aboard.
  6. Return leg is already on file if booked. No need to re-explain the job for the trip home.

Our Process — FAQs

How do I get a quote for minibus hire?

Call us or use the quote form on this site with your group size, route and date. For minibus jobs specifically, we also ask for your luggage count so the quote reflects the right vehicle rather than a generic starting figure.

Is the price I'm quoted the price I pay?

Yes. Saloon and estate airport/port fares are published fixed rates plus the £5 pickup/drop-off charge; minibus and group jobs are quoted against your confirmed passenger count and luggage before you book, and that figure doesn't move on the day.

Do you track flights and sailings for delays?

Yes, for airport and port jobs we track your flight or sailing and adjust the pickup time automatically if it's delayed, so you don't need to call us to update the time yourself.

Can I book a return leg at the same time as my outbound journey?

Yes, and we recommend it — return legs for weddings, events, airport and port transfers are planned in at the time of booking rather than arranged separately closer to the date.

What happens if my group size changes after I've booked?

Let us know as soon as it changes — a larger group may need a different vehicle size, and we'll requote accordingly rather than trying to fit an oversized group into the original booking.
