Golf Groups Visiting Stockholm Courses
Updated 3 min read
Golf bags are long, awkward and take up far more room than their weight suggests — a group of four heading to courses around Stockholm with a full set of golf bags plus ordinary suitcases will almost always outgrow a car sized for passengers alone. It's one of the more predictable luggage mismatches, and one of the easiest to plan around if you know to ask about it upfront.
This guide is about exactly that: how golf bags fit into our vehicle categories, and confirming oversized items before you land rather than discovering the problem at the kerb.
Golf bags are oversized, not ordinary luggage
A golf bag doesn't fit neatly into the case-and-cabin-bag luggage-unit system the way a suitcase does — its length and shape mean it needs to be treated and confirmed as an oversized item rather than assumed to fit within an ordinary budget. Mention every golf bag specifically when you book, alongside any regular suitcases, so the car sent is one that can actually carry them.
Which categories handle a group's golf bags
A single golfer with one bag and a regular suitcase often fits a Standard, Electric or Business car, though it's worth confirming rather than assuming. A group of three or four with a full bag each plus suitcases generally needs SUV / XL for the combined length and bulk, and a larger group — or one travelling with a full set of oversized golf bags and holiday luggage — is what the Minibus category exists for.
Because golf bags vary so much in size themselves, the safest approach is always to name exactly what you're bringing in the booking notes rather than guessing at a category and hoping it fits.
Confirming it before pickup day
Oversized items like golf bags are confirmed before pickup, not discovered at pickup — so once your booking is confirmed with the golf bags noted, you know the car coming has room for them, and there's nothing left to negotiate at the kerb with a group and its clubs standing around.
When you describe the bags, give the number, whether they're in hard travel cases or soft covers, and any other luggage travelling with them. We confirm before pickup that the category you've chosen has room, or suggest a larger one — the price for each category is shown before you pay, so the difference is never a surprise.

Questions people ask before booking
Can a golf bag travel as ordinary luggage?
No — a golf bag should be flagged specifically in your booking notes as an oversized item, since its length and shape don't fit the standard luggage-unit system the way a suitcase does.
What car fits a group of four golfers with bags and suitcases?
Usually SUV / XL, though it depends on the bags' size and how much other luggage is involved — mention everything specifically when you book so we can confirm.
Is there an extra charge for golf bags?
Any relevant detail is reflected in the price shown before you book, so there's nothing added afterward once the car is confirmed.
What if our golf bags are unusually large?
Describe them specifically in your booking notes — size varies a lot between bags, and the more detail you give, the more accurately we can confirm the right vehicle.
Can we book more than one car if our group is large?
Yes — for a bigger group, several cars booked against the same details keep everyone arriving together rather than splitting the group unpredictably.
Can we book separate cars for the golf bags and the players?
You can book as many cars as the group needs, each with its own fixed price. Many groups find one larger vehicle simpler, but the choice depends on the number of bags and players.
