Charter Bus Rentals in Mobile

A charter bus is a large, privately rented motorcoach designed to transport groups of people together to a destination of their choice. Unlike public transportation or scheduled intercity buses, a charter bus operates on a custom itinerary set by the client, with flexible pickup times, routes, and stops. Modern charter buses typically seat 40 to 56 passengers and are equipped with comfortable reclining seats, climate control, onboard restrooms, luggage compartments, and optional amenities like Wi-Fi and video monitors.

Charter Bus Company Mobile offers a full range of vehicles from 15-passenger to 35-passenger minibuses to 40-, 47-, 50-, and 56-passenger full-size charter buses in Mobile, plus party buses (10–40 guests) and several specialty/school bus options. Available makes include Van Hool CX/EX, Prevost H3-45/X3-45, MCI J4500/D4505, Setra S417/S407, Temsa TS35E/TS45, Grech Motors GM33/GM36/GM40, Turtle Top VT3 Terra Transit, and Champion/Freightliner cutaways. Minibuses can be built on Ford E-Series, F-Series, or Transit chassis. Most vehicles are available in black, white, silver, or custom colors, and many models are ADA-accessible.

Our charter buses include reclining seats with headrests, individual reading lights, powerful air conditioning, overhead parcel racks, and large undercarriage luggage bays. Most full-size coaches have up to six flat-screen video monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, Bluetooth audio, and a PA system with wireless microphone. Wi-Fi and 110V power outlets (plus USB ports) are standard on newer models. There’s a full-size restroom at the rear of the coach. Optional upgrades include leatherette seating, forward-facing tables, and custom branding.

Yes, every full-size charter bus has generous luggage space both inside and below the cabin. Each passenger can bring one large suitcase (up to 50 lbs.) for the undercarriage luggage bays and one carry-on bag for the overhead parcel rack above their seat. The baggage bays can handle bulky items like sports equipment, musical instruments, trade show cases, or coolers. Minibuses have smaller rear cargo areas but still accommodate one bag per person.

The cabin has removable seats to create one or two wheelchair securement areas with four-point tie-downs and lap belts.

Several factors can affect the price of your charter bus rental in Mobile. The time of year, the type of bus, the length of your trip, and any additional amenities you request can all impact the final cost. For example, rates may be higher during peak travel seasons or when major events like Mardi Gras, college football games, or conventions are happening in Mobile. Longer trips and larger buses will also cost more than shorter trips and smaller vehicles.

It’s best to book your charter bus at least three to six months in advance, especially if your trip falls during a busy season or coincides with a major event in Mobile. Spring and fall are peak times due to school trips, weddings, and sports events. If you need a bus during Mardi Gras, homecoming, or graduation season, try to book as early as possible to ensure availability and get the best rates. Last-minute rentals are possible but may be more expensive and offer fewer vehicle options.

Yes, we require a deposit to secure your reservation. The deposit amount is typically 30% of the total rental cost and is due when you sign the contract. The remaining balance is due 30 days before your trip departure date. If you book less than 30 days in advance, the full payment will be required upfront. We accept major credit cards, ACH transfers, and business checks. Payment terms will be clearly outlined in your contract.

Additional expenses such as hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips, meals, or special permits are not included and will be your responsibility.
