You’re a busy event organiser, with a never ending “to do list”. We get it! It doesn’t matter how big or small your team are, let’s face it everyone could be doing with “one less job to do”. That’s where we come in.
Getting the right transport solution is essential for the success of any event, but without the expertise in the transport industry you’re often left at the mercy of your supplier, regardless of how good they are. Not to mention the additional work involved in trawling through your supplier list (if you have one) to check availability, attain the best deal, working up an operations plan, plus the endless amount of admin and time spent liaising and setting up contracts and schedules. It almost becomes a job of its own.
So, wouldn’t it be nice if someone could take this stress away and allow you to focus on organising other parts of your event, safe in the knowledge that you’ve got the best deal and that your guests will be transported from A to B by a reliable team of experts? I think we know the answer to that one already… And that’s where we come in.
