Staff Transport Service in Dubai
Running a business in Dubai means managing more than just operations β it means making sure your team gets to work on time, every day, without the daily stress of traffic, parking, and rising fuel costs. MS Transport has been handling corporate staff transport across Dubai since 2013, and today we operate a fleet of 70+ vehicles serving companies in DIFC, Business Bay, Jebel Ali, Al Quoz, Dubai South, and every major commercial district in between.
Whether you have 14 employees or 600, the question isn't whether you need staff transport β it's whether your current solution is actually saving you time and money. This page lays out exactly what we offer, what it costs, and why over 500 Dubai businesses choose us for their daily employee shuttle service.
Why Corporate Dubai Chooses MS Transport
Staff transport is one of those services where the wrong provider can cost you far more than the wrong invoice. A late shuttle on a Monday morning isn't just an inconvenience β it's 30 employees clocking in late, missed client calls, and a quiet erosion of team morale. Here's what makes us different:
- RTA Licensed (#698133) β Every vehicle and driver is registered and compliant with Roads and Transport Authority regulations. This isn't a marketing line; it's a legal requirement that smaller "fleet" operators often skip.
- Serving Dubai since 2013 β We've moved staff through Expo 2020, GITEX, and countless Dubai summer heat waves. Experience shows in our routing.
- Zero advance payment required β You pay the driver directly on service day. No deposits, no upfront commitments, no awkward refund conversations if plans change.
- Transparent monthly pricing β The rates below are real published numbers. No hidden surcharges, no peak-time multipliers, no "fuel adjustment" fees added later.
- 50+ vehicle fleet β Hiace vans through 66-seater coaches. We match the right vehicle to your actual headcount, not whatever's available.
- Insured & GPS tracked β Full passenger insurance and live GPS on every vehicle. Your HR team can verify pickup completion in real time.
Transparent Pricing β Real Monthly Rates
Most staff transport providers in Dubai quote "from AED X" and then negotiate up. We do the opposite. The table below shows the actual monthly rates for a standard one-pickup, one-drop daily route within Dubai. These include the driver, fuel for standard routes, Salik tolls, insurance, and maintenance.
| Vehicle | Capacity | Monthly Rate (AED) | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Toyota Hiace | 14 seater | 5,500 | Small offices, executive teams |
| Mercedes Sprinter | 22 seater | 6,500 | Mid-size teams, premium feel |
| Coaster Mini Bus | 30 seater | 7,000 | Department-level transport |
| Higer / Yutong Bus | 35 seater | 7,500 | Tech/finance company size |
| Standard Bus | 40 seater | 8,000 | Multi-department contracts |
| Luxury Coach | 50 seater | 9,000 | Full-floor offices |
| Heavy Coach | 66 seater | 10,000 | Large workforce shuttle |
Multi-pickup routes, cross-emirate routes, and routes outside standard Dubai areas are quoted separately. Call +971 50 416 0219 for a custom quote within 30 minutes.
Matching the Right Vehicle to Your Team Size
One of the most common mistakes companies make with staff transport is over-buying or under-buying capacity. A 50-seater running half-empty is wasted budget; a 22-seater on a 30-employee route means people standing or waiting for the next trip. Here's how we generally match vehicles:
- 10-15 employees on one pickup point: 14-seater Hiace is usually the right call. Compact, easy to park at office buildings, comfortable for short commutes.
- 16-25 employees: 22-seater Coaster or Mercedes Sprinter. The Sprinter is the executive choice β quieter cabin, premium feel for client-facing teams.
- 26-35 employees: 30-35 seater bus. This is the most common Dubai corporate contract size β covers full departments at most mid-size companies.
- 36-50 employees: 40 or 50-seater bus. Best for full-office contracts where everyone shares the same pickup window.
- 50+ employees: Either one 66-seater or multiple coordinated buses. We've handled contracts with 6+ buses running simultaneously for warehouse and call center operations.
What's Included in Every Monthly Contract
The published rate isn't a starting point that grows with add-ons. Every monthly staff transport contract with MS Transport includes:
- β Professional RTA-certified driver in uniform
- β Fuel for all standard routes within Dubai
- β Salik toll fees (when route requires)
- β Comprehensive vehicle insurance
- β Passenger insurance coverage

Extras like multi-pickup routes, weekend service, late-night shifts, or cross-emirate routes (Dubai-Sharjah, Dubai-Abu Dhabi) are priced separately and discussed up front.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to pay any advance for staff transport contracts?
No. MS Transport operates on a pay-the-driver model β you pay the driver directly on service days. There's no advance payment, no deposit, and no awkward refund conversations if you need to cancel. We've been doing this for 13 years; it works.
What happens if a driver calls in sick?
We have backup drivers on standby for every contract. If your assigned driver can't make a shift, a backup is dispatched without any disruption to your pickup schedule. Same applies to vehicles β every major contract has a backup vehicle assigned in case of mechanical issues.
Can we change the route or timing mid-contract?
Yes. Staff transport routes evolve as companies grow or restructure. We can adjust pickup points, timing, vehicle size, or route entirely with 48 hours notice. No re-contracting required.
Is GPS tracking really included, or is that an upcharge?
It's genuinely included. Every vehicle on a staff transport contract has live GPS, and your HR contact gets dashboard access showing real-time location, pickup completion timestamps, and route history. No extra fee.
Do you handle weekend or late-night staff routes?
Yes β particularly common for healthcare, hospitality, and 24/7 logistics operations. Weekend service is quoted separately from standard weekday rates, but the pricing is straightforward and transparent.
Can MS Transport serve cross-emirate routes like Sharjah to Dubai?
Yes. We run daily cross-emirate staff shuttles between Sharjah, Ajman, and Dubai, as well as longer Abu Dhabi-Dubai runs. These are priced based on distance and frequency β call us for a route-specific quote.
