About

Car rental in Accra since 2007

Nii Plants Car Rentals is a Ghanaian-owned private limited company at Plantsville, Dansoman. Since 2007 we have hired saloons, SUVs, 4x4s, vans, and coaches for travel inside Ghana — self-drive online, or chauffeur and group trips with staff.

Who we are

Nii Plants Car Rentals Co. Ltd is a private limited liability company incorporated on 22 October 2007 under the Companies Code, 1963 (Act 179). Certificate to commence business was issued the next day, 23 October 2007. Theophilus Ayitey-Adjin and Mary Ayitey-Adjin own it equally. Hire began at Sakaman Junction on the Odorkor–Mallam Highway; that is history, not the current desk. On 1 October 2021 the Plantsville office opened in Dansoman: offices, a front desk, and furnished apartments for visiting clients (booked with staff, not as part of a self-drive checkout).

The company was incorporated to rent vehicles and earth-moving equipment. Today this website is car hire only. Trucks, cargo, and earth-moving are booked with NiiPlants Logistics, the 2020 haulage outfit.

How we hire cars

You book a model or similar. Staff assign a physical car. Self-drive days are 24 hours. Chauffeur hire uses a 10-hour duty day, with a three-hour minimum for short jobs. Airport pickup and drop-off, long-term, and group trips are arranged with staff. Mileage for ordinary use inside Ghana is included. Full maintenance and a replacement car sit on quoted packages. Quotes and online reservation payments are in Ghana cedis. Roadside support is by phone around the clock; that is not a 24-hour walk-in office.

Full hire rules, documents, and cancellation

  • Age 25+

    Self-drive renters and every extra driver must be 25 or older and hold a full driving licence, not a learner permit.

  • Ghana only

    Use the car for Accra days and road trips inside Ghana. Crossing a land border is not permitted.

  • Ghana cedis

    Staff confirm a Ghana cedi total before you pay. Old-shop US dollar cards are a catalogue reference, not an online price.

  • 48-hour cancel

    Cancel 48 hours or more before pickup for a refund of the reservation payment, minus any confirmed payment-processor fee.

Core values

  • God factor

    The company’s stated foundation is faith. That is meant to show up as honesty in quotes, care for customers and staff, and a long view of the work.

  • Professionalism

    As a vehicle-leasing firm we observe a hire standard: licensed cars, named drivers on the agreement, and staff who explain the rules before you collect keys. Customers are treated well; employees are given room to grow.

  • Keys to success

    Use the fleet well, keep customers satisfied, and keep costs clear. You receive the class you booked — or a similar model if that unit is already out.

Hire packages

Durations from the company papers, aligned with how this site books: self-drive online in 24-hour days; chauffeur, airport, and long-term quoted by staff in Ghana cedis.

  • Short-term

    Daily hire for 1–6 days, weekly for 1–3 weeks, or monthly for 1–11 months. Self-drive days are 24 hours.

  • Long-term

    From one to five years, with an option to buy discussed with staff — not a standard online checkout.

  • Chauffeur and airport

    Per-hour chauffeur from a three-hour minimum, or a 10-hour duty day. Kotoka pickup and drop-off by arrangement.

  • Included on a standard hire

    Mileage inside Ghana, online reservation for self-drive, and 24-hour roadside by phone. Maintenance and replacement cars are confirmed on the quote.

Awards

JoyOnline and Daily Guide reported the 2022 citation: a fleet for travel in and outside Accra, and professional drivers. We do not use “best in Ghana” as a standing slogan — those titles belong to the award ceremonies.

Mission

To exceed customers’ expectations in total transport solutions, delivering the best value in an efficient, effective, and friendly way — a roadworthy car, a clear Ghana cedi quote, and an Accra team that treats the trip as a solution, not a plate number.

Vision

To provide reliable, efficient transport and to be recognised as a leading car-rental service in Ghana. Award titles stay with the Ghana Tourism Authority ceremonies; we do not use “best in Ghana” as a standing slogan.
