Why volunteer with us?

The Bus Preservation Society of WA ("BPSWA") is a self-funded not-for-profit organisation dedicated to the preservation of bus history in Western Australia. Their motto is: “Preserving Bus Heritage for present and future generations.”

If you are interested in heritage bus transport and have some time and passion to share with this amazingly dedicated group of people, then please get in touch.

What kind of roles are available?

DRIVERS

If you would enjoy driving vintage buses – whether inside the natural bushland surrounds of Whiteman Park or taking the fleet on the road for external displays – then now is the time to get in touch!

GENERAL HANDS

There is a lot involved in supporting the Society and keeping their fleet of heritage buses in top condition. Volunteers who can help with cleaning the buses, checking tyres, regularly starting the buses to keep their motors happy, collecting waste batteries from donors and collecting or delivering parts are all well appreciated.
