Bus Hire Strathfield
Direct operator minibus and coach hire for Strathfield and its neighbouring suburbs.
Strathfield sits 13.8 kilometres west of the Sydney CBD and is the administrative centre of the Municipality of Strathfield. Known for its wide streets, heritage homes and long list of established schools, it is also an important rail junction, with a station council describes as one of Sydney’s most interconnected. That mix makes bus hire Strathfield bookings some of our most varied: a Year 5 excursion in the morning, an airport run at lunch and a concert transfer to Sydney Olympic Park that evening, all managed in-house with no brokers.

Events at Sydney Olympic Park
Strathfield is a short run to Accor Stadium, Afterpay Arena (formerly Qudos Bank Arena), Sydney Showground and the 12-day Sydney Royal Easter Show. Our drivers follow the Park’s approved coach approach from Uhrig Road via Carter Street, and we can pre-book a coach parking bay for major events.
Bicentennial Park, 40 hectares of lakeside meadows and mangrove boardwalks, suits school picnics and team days. See also corporate coach hire, staff shuttles and shuttles and transfers.
Coach Access Notes for Strathfield
The town centre is compact: The Boulevarde leads to the station on Albert Road, with Strathfield Plaza beside the town square. Kerbside space is busy and council rangers enforce bus stop and no stopping zones, so we never assume a coach can wait outside the Plaza or station.
We agree a legal pick-up point when you book, often a school forecourt, side street or venue driveway. The M4 is reached via the Concord Road interchange at North Strathfield, while southern groups use Liverpool Road. Tolls are charged at cost at Class B rates; see Sydney toll rates. See council’s Strathfield Town Centre page for local context.
