Services
One Van. Every Kind of Group.
TravelSeat Rentals serves every group-travel use case in the Tri-State — from a Saturday wedding in Greenwich to a Sunday church retreat to a family vacation.
Self-drive rental is our primary offering; an optional licensed driver is available on request for select bookings. Click any service for routes, details, and what's included.
National rental brands handle volume — but group renters consistently get burned on weekend mileage caps, debit-card rejections, and surprise charges.
TravelSeat Rentals was built around the specific frictions that make group van rental painful elsewhere.
Common Pain Point
National brands cap weekend mileage on 15-passenger vans — you discover the limit only when overage fees hit your card.
Our Answer
Generous daily mileage on every booking. No separate weekend cap. Unlimited-mileage options on multi-day trips.
Common Pain Point
Major credit card required for 12/15-passenger vans at NY, NJ, and Vermont counters — debit cards rejected on arrival.
Our Answer
Debit cards accepted with a refundable security deposit hold for qualified renters. Verified before pickup, never at the counter.
Common Pain Point
Aggregator quotes don't include the airport surcharge, cleaning fee, or "underage" surcharge until you're at the counter signing the paper.
Our Answer
All-in pricing. Vehicle, insurance, mileage tier, and any local taxes disclosed in writing before you book. No counter surprises.
Common Pain Point
Rental counters at airport branches treat group renters as an afterthought — long waits, last-minute substitutions, generic communication.
Our Answer
One specialist focus. Two Ford Transit vans, personal attention on every booking, and clear communication from quote to return.
About
Stamford's Group Van Rental Specialist
TravelSeat Rentals is a locally operated vehicle rental service based in Stamford, Connecticut. We focus exclusively on
7–15 passenger group vehicles — a 2020 Toyota Highlander SUV (8-pax), a 12-passenger Ford Transit high-roof, and a 15-passenger Ford Transit low-roof — so families, friends, sports teams, faith groups, and corporate hosts can move together
comfortably and predictably across the Tri-State.
Coordinating multiple cars, rideshares, and pickup times for a group is stressful — and renting a 15-passenger van from a national chain often
adds more stress than it solves: weekend mileage caps, debit-card rejections, and surprise upgrade pricing.
TravelSeat Rentals was built around a simple promise: reliable, spacious, comfortable group van rental that keeps your group in one vehicle.
Our three vehicles — a 2020 Toyota Highlander (8-pax SUV), a 2020 Ford Transit 12-passenger high-roof, and a 2018 Ford Transit 15-passenger low-roof — are ideal for:
Multi-generational family vacations and reunions
Wedding shuttles between hotel blocks, ceremony, and reception
Travel sports, AAU, and prep-school athletic trips
Church Sundays, retreats, mission trips, and conferences
Corporate offsites, conference transport, and executive guest movement
Group transfers from JFK, LaGuardia, Newark, White Plains, and Bradley airports
FIFA World Cup 2026 match-day rides to MetLife Stadium
Every reservation is handled with personal attention, clear communication, and all-in transparent pricing — no hidden fees and no counter surprises.
Self-drive is the standard rental; a licensed driver is available on request for select group bookings.

Insurance
Insurance Coverage & Protection Options
Every TravelSeat Rentals booking is backed by commercial insurance coverage designed to help protect both you (the renter) and our rental operation.
Below is a high-level overview of what is generally included in your rate, plus optional add-on protection you may be able to select.
Coverage Included with Your Rental
Your daily rate includes insurance coverage for eligible rentals,
subject to the terms, conditions, limitations, and exclusions of the underlying policy
and applicable state law. In general, this may include:
Liability coverage for the renter (state statutory limits). Coverage up to the applicable state-required limits for bodily injury and property damage arising out of covered use of the rental vehicle.
Excess liability protection for the rental business. Additional liability coverage that sits above certain underlying limits to help protect the rental operation.
Physical damage coverage for the rental vehicle. Coverage for eligible collision and comprehensive losses to the van itself, subject to any applicable deductibles and exclusions.
Uninsured / underinsured motorist coverage. Protection if you are involved in a covered accident caused by a driver who has no insurance or insufficient limits, where available by law.
Medical payments or personal injury protection (PIP). Limited coverage for certain medical expenses for occupants of the rental vehicle, where required or permitted by state law.
This summary is for marketing purposes only and does not alter, expand, or replace the actual
insurance policy or the rental agreement. Full details, including deductibles and exclusions, will be provided in
your rental documentation at the time of booking.
FAQs
FAQs, Policies & Safety Information
We prioritize safety, clarity, and peace of mind. Here are answers to common questions about our group van rental service in Stamford, CT and across the Tri-State.
How much does it cost to rent a 15-passenger van in Stamford?
Self-drive rates for our 15-passenger Ford Transit typically start around $145/day in Fairfield County, with multi-day bundles automatically discounted.
Final pricing depends on dates, mileage tier, and any add-ons.
Do you offer unlimited mileage?
Yes. Every rental includes generous daily mileage by default, with optional unlimited mileage available for longer regional and road trips.
We do not impose a weekend mileage cap.
Do you accept debit cards?
Yes. We accept debit cards from qualified renters with a refundable security deposit hold. You will not be turned away at pickup because of a debit card —
eligibility and deposit amount are confirmed in writing before your reservation is finalized.
What insurance options are available?
Our rentals are covered by a commercial policy with clear terms and a set deductible. Renters may also be able to use their own coverage or a credit-card benefit where applicable.
Optional Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI) is available as a per-day add-on. We walk you through all insurance terms before confirming your booking.
Do you offer a licensed driver with the rental?
Self-drive rental is our primary service. A licensed driver is available on request for weddings, FIFA 2026 match days, and select group bookings — see our
optional driver page for details.
What safety features do the vehicles include?
All three vehicles are equipped with modern safety features. The Ford Transits include multiple airbags, ABS, stability and traction control, rearview camera, and Bluetooth.
The Toyota Highlander adds Toyota Safety Sense (pre-collision warning, auto emergency braking, lane departure alert, radar cruise control), blind spot monitoring, and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.
Where do I pick up the van?
Pickup is at 32 Grenhart Road, Stamford, CT 06902 (the Super 8 lot), close to Stamford downtown and the Train Station.
This is a pickup-only location — no walk-in reservations.
What are the age and license requirements?
Drivers must hold a valid U.S. driver's license and meet the minimum age requirement specified at the time of booking. Additional drivers can be added if they meet the same qualifications.
Can I use the van for Uber, Lyft, TLC work, or paid shuttle trips?
No. Our self-drive vans are rented for private group transportation only and are not licensed as TLC, taxi, livery, shuttle, or rideshare vehicles.
The van may not be used to provide any paid transportation or "for-hire" service of any kind, including but not limited to
Uber, Lyft, or unlicensed shuttle work. Any such use is a violation of our rental terms and makes the renter fully
responsible for any fines, tickets, or penalties.
