Kingswood Community Transport - Group Hire

We offer transport for groups within the community, providing fully-accessible mini-buses. Scouts and Youth groups, lunch clubs and many more groups use this service. Our charges are very reasonable, and we offer day hire, weekend hire and a mileage rate. A group membership registration form can be obtained from the office, or can be downloaded from the Downloads Page.

Group Hire Charges

Group Hire charges without a driver are as follows:
Full day and evening hire - £85.00 for the first 100 miles plus fuel. Any mileage over 100 miles will be charged at 12p per mile.
Half day hire - £42.50. The same criteria regarding mileage and fuel apply.
Weekend hire - £170. The same criteria regarding mileage and fuel apply.

These costs only reflect the operating cost of our vehicles. It is helpful if groups can provide their own driver that has successfully completed MiDAS Training. Always give us a call to discuss any ideas you have and we will try to meet your needs.

Volunteer driver expenses will be between £10 and £25, depending on booking, and are agreed at the time of booking.

Please note the following:

  • Only drivers that have successfully completed MiDAS Training are allowed to drive our vehicles;
  • Groups with passengers that have the South Gloucestershire Council Diamond Travel Card should contact the office to discuss charges in detail;
  • The hirer is responsible for the care of the vehicle during the hire period;
  • Any vehicle returned requiring cleaning will be subject to a minimum charge of £20.00 (brushes are inside every vehicle);
  • Cancellation Fee under 24 hours is £30.00;
