About Us
Who we are
The Star Cars and Bus Company is a family run transportation business.
What we do
The Star Bus Company operates a dedicated transport service for local government,
corporate bodies and private organisations.
We operate services for local councils in the London area and surrounding counties
and also operate a number of private routes operated under contract for various
organisations including foreign embassies and private schools.
Our primary focus is on transporting people.
The majority of passengers that we transport are for local councils, notably passengers
with special needs and private clients such as private schools, charities and after
school clubs. We currently transport over 900 passengers each and every day in several
local council boroughs.
We also cater to the private hire market in the form of tail-lift mini-buses and
16-seater mini-buses. Wheel chair and tail-lift services are available on request
We can also provide hire of executive vehicles; these can be provided with or without
one of our professional chauffeurs.

- SEN (special educational needs)

- Social service routes
- Day excursions, a farm, museum, or the sea-side for example.
