Services

Hodge's operates a 25 vehicle fleet of various sizes ranging from 16 to 70 seater vehicles, they specialise in corporate transport, private hire and home to school transport and club/society travel. The 57 seater MANs are a popular vehicle on school swimming contracts and as shuttle vehicles between venues, this may be due to the high seating capacity and the front and rear kerbside doors which allows for easier loading and unloading of passengers.
