Large passenger van and minibus hire in Hamilton for groups of up to 18. Sports teams, corporate events, school trips, airport transfers — daily and weekly rates.
Guardian Transports offers Hamilton's most flexible large van and minibus hire. Our 18-seater minibuses are ideal for any occasion where you need to move a large group together — comfortably, cheaply, and on time.
All vehicles are fully insured and regularly serviced. The daily rate you see includes GST and basic insurance — no surprise charges at pickup. We offer daily, weekend, and weekly hire rates with discounts for longer periods.
If your group is 8–12 people, our 12-seater van hire is the right choice — easier to drive on a standard Class 1 licence. For groups of 13–18, the 18-seater minibus gives everyone comfortable seating with luggage space.
