Precision Minibus Hire for Harlow & West Essex
Whether you are coordinating an executive team transfer to Harlow Science Park or requiring a reliable shuttle for a group event at the Harlow Leisurezone, our minibus service is designed for scientific precision. We specialise in high-standard group transport that bridges the gap between a standard taxi and a full-sized coach, ensuring your small group travels in total comfort.
By focusing on the unique geography of the CM17 to CM20 postcode areas, we ensure our drivers are experts in local navigation—from the busy M11/A414 junction to the residential hubs of Church Langley and Old Harlow.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How many passengers and suitcases fit in a 16-seater minibus?
Our 16-seater minibuses are ideal for smaller groups. The Executive models comfortably accommodate 16 passengers and approximately 10–12 medium suitcases. These are our most popular choices for rapid airport transfers from Harlow town centre or Church Langley to London Stansted (STN), which is just a 20-minute journey.
Is the driver included in the minibus hire price?
Yes, all our hire services include a professional, fully licensed driver. Our drivers have expert knowledge of the Harlow road network and the M11 corridor, ensuring your group avoids local congestion near The High and reaches its destination safely.
Are your minibuses ULEZ-compliant for travel into Central London?
Absolutely. Our entire fleet is Euro 6 compliant and meets all ULEZ and LEZ standards. This is a significant benefit for groups travelling from Harlow or Old Harlow into the London Low Emission Zones for events at the O2 Arena or West End theatres, as you will avoid all daily charges.
