    The author studies minimal surfaces in a 3-dimensional Minkowski space of Randers-type. He proves that if a connected surface in \(\mathbb R^3\) is minimal with respect to both the Busemann-Hausdorff volume form and the Holmes-Thompson volume form, then up to a parallel translation of \(\mathbb R^3\) the surface is either a piece of a plane or a piece of a helicoid generated by lines screwing about the \(x^3\)-axis.
