Driver Hire
Hire a Driver for Your Own Car in Sydney
Need a professional driver behind the wheel of your own vehicle? Prestige provides experienced, accredited chauffeurs who drive your car for the day, the evening or a single trip, so you can travel as a passenger in the vehicle you already know.
How driver hire works
You supply the vehicle; we supply the driver. Your chauffeur arrives at the agreed time, drives your car for the booking, and returns it to the address you nominate. The same professional standard applies as with our fleet vehicles: punctual, formally dressed, and experienced with Sydney roads.
This suits situations where you want to travel in your own car but do not want to drive: a night out, a medical appointment, a long day of meetings, or simply a preference for being a passenger. It also suits car owners who need a vehicle moved between addresses without driving it themselves.
When to hire a driver for your own car
Driver hire is the right service when you want to travel in a specific vehicle rather than one from our fleet.
- An evening out where you want to take your own car and have a driver bring you home
- A full day of meetings where you want to work in the back seat of your own vehicle
- A medical procedure or appointment after which you cannot drive
- Moving a vehicle between addresses, a home and an office, a showroom and a residence, or between cities
- A long drive where you would rather not be behind the wheel
Insurance and vehicle conditions
Because our driver is operating your vehicle, insurance arrangements differ from a standard chauffeur booking where we supply the car. We confirm the conditions with you before the booking so both parties are clear on cover, liability and any excess.
Please discuss insurance details with our team when you enquire. We will let you know what we need from you and what we provide on our side.
What our driver brings
Your driver arrives with the same professional presentation as any Prestige booking. They familiarise themselves with your vehicle before departure, including controls, mirrors and any specific operating notes you share.
If your vehicle has particular requirements, a specific fuel type, a parking permit location, or a preferred route through a secure gate, let us know when you book and the driver is briefed in advance.
Single trip, full day or recurring
Driver hire can be booked as a single trip, an hourly as-directed day, or a recurring arrangement. For a regular school run, a weekly medical appointment, or a standing weekday arrangement, we can assign a familiar driver who learns your vehicle and your preferences.
Booking and payment
Call 1300 665 045 or enquire online with your vehicle details, the date and the journey plan. We confirm the driver, the timing and a fare before the booking. Our service runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with an after-hours surcharge of 30% between 10:00 pm and 4:45 am.
Road tolls are additional. Standard pickups include 15 minutes of complimentary waiting. You can pay securely in advance or, for recurring bookings, bill to a corporate account.
