The majority of services operating out of Trang Bus Terminal are minivan services. Bus services tend to only operate on longer distance routes such as to Phuket and Bangkok. The exception to this is the excellent bus service from Trang to Nakhon Si Thammarat which uses modern half length buses which are far more comfortable than minivans although they travel more slowly, and most likely are much safer.

The ticket counters on your right as you enter the terminal building are where they sell minivan ticket. The long distance bus companies have separate ticket counters in the passage way leading to the waiting area by the bus platforms. Each ticket counter only sells tickets for one specific company so for destinations, such as Bangkok, where more than one company provides services it is worth checking at the different ticket counters before you purchase your ticket to find the bus service which is best for you.
