Factors That Influence The Final Price Of Minibus Hire

The final price of the minibus is calculated based on various factors. We are taking a prominent step to make the quotes highly flexible and transparent so the hirers know what they are paying for.

Vehicle Size & Brands

We offer several sizes of MPV, minibus and coaches of different brands to support your travel amenities. From 8 seater MPV to 16 seater minibus and large 70 seater coaches, our vehicles cater to all sizes of group travels. The vehicle size and brand are the direct factors for the final price since it is centred around comfortable travel for your group members.

Time of Minibus Hire

Hiring a minibus around specific days or a last-minute hire also contributes to the final price. There is not a major difference in prices for small vehicles and will be dependent on the rest of the factors. Plus, booking a vehicle within a week or 2-3 days also has a small price hike.

The notable price increase is associated with a large 70 seater coach and last-minute hires for urgent travel needs. Since the demand for minibus hire increases on weekends, it can lead to a minor price hike.

Peak Season

Prices are prone to increase during the peak season around the UK. There is a higher demand for Minibuses from May 1 to August 15. Conversely, coach availability and rates increase up to 20% from May 1 to August 30.

Festivals & Events

Our minibus hire cost may increase for crowded festivals and events. This is because most festivals do not feature closely accessible parking and drivers are forced to park vehicles away from the hirers’ destination.

For instance, prices can add up to 50% for Cheltenham Festival hires if the travellers demand near-destination parking.

Multiple Days Or Contract Hire

Multiple days or Contract minibus hires are curated packages with higher price quotes. Our support team closely listens to your travel requirements to provide you with the most reasonable quote for your contract pickups and dropoffs.

Especially, our support team can help you with customised multiple day minibus hires so you do not have to pay extra costs for unused services.
