Safe, licensed minibus hire for schools and colleges
Schools, colleges, nurseries and youth groups across Manchester choose OPUS because we are a fully licensed PSV operator — the legal standard for carrying passengers for hire. Every seat has a seat belt, our drivers are experienced professionals, and our vehicles are maintained and inspected to strict standards. That makes it simple to sign off your trip and your risk assessment with confidence.
We handle museum and gallery visits, field trips, sports fixtures, residential drop-offs and end-of-term days out, both locally and further afield to places like Chester Zoo, the Lake District, York and London. Teachers get a single point of contact, clear timings and a fixed price, and we can supply the paperwork your school or local authority needs before the trip.

What our passengers say
“We hired a 16 seater minibus for a family trip to Wembley. I was delighted at the customer service with several discussions on our requirements, timings, numbers, drop off breaks etc. The whole day was a great experience with a super friendly driver who did everything to please the party with stops along the way for refreshments etc. Our minibus was clean, tidy and comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone wanting their services. Overall Superb. Thank you.”
