What are the Factors Influencing Westminster Bus Rental Pricing?

Several elements can influence the cost of your bus rental, including the distance and duration of your trip, the time of year you book, where you’re starting from, your bus size and amenities, and the day of the week and time of day you need service. Your Charter Bus Westminster rep can help you determine the best bus for you.

Trip Details and How Long You’ll Need a Bus

Westminster bus rentals are usually priced by the hour, day, or mileage. Local trips are usually calculated by the hour, and most bus companies have a minimum of five hours for each local trip. Multi-day journeys like a sports tournament or corporate convention will typically be priced by the day. If you’re on a long-distance road trip, you’ll most likely be priced per mile. For example, imagine you’re planning a road trip to Las Vegas from Westminster for a work convention. Your bus driver will be with you there, the entire time, and will need to know your itinerary to ensure that you aren’t charged for extra miles. If your itinerary changes at the last minute, be sure to call your representative immediately so they can adjust your route. We can easily change most itineraries as long as you give 24 hours’ notice. Otherwise, you may be stuck with unexpected mileage fees at the end.

Location and Finding a Bus Near You

If there’s low availability in your starting location (or your destination), this also affects your charter bus pricing. It’s harder to find a bus when there’s low availability, like during peak months or in areas with small towns. The distance your driver has to travel from their headquarters to meet you is known as “deadhead” and can add to your final cost. When possible, book a bus that’s already located in your start city to minimize deadhead costs. If that isn’t possible, let your Charter Bus Westminster rep know—we have transportation partners in hundreds of cities across Colorado and elsewhere, so we can likely still find a bus company near your destination.

The Type and Size of Bus You Rent

The type of bus rental you choose for your group trip or event in Westminster also affects your final price. Charter Bus Westminster has a variety of buses available, with each size, amenity package, and vehicle model having a different rate. Sprinter vans, for example, are typically less expensive than minibuses, while party buses are generally more costly.

If your event includes a group of 10 people and you’re staying local, a sprinter van rental may be all you need. These fit anywhere between 10 and 15 people depending on the configuration. Sprinter buses often have features like reclining seats, WiFi, power outlets, and plenty of overhead storage space.

If you have a few dozen people, minibuses are also available to rent in sizes ranging from 18-passenger to 30-passenger models, depending on your needs. Minibus rentals also have all of the features of a sprinter bus.

Larger groups are better suited to full-sized charter bus rentals. The largest buses can hold up to 56 passengers at a time and can also be reserved with special amenities like an onboard restroom and luggage bay.

Day of the Week Bus Rental Prices

Weekend charter bus rentals are generally more expensive than weekday charters. You’ll often be charged lower prices and have more flexibility when you rent a bus on days with less demand (Monday-Thursday). The increase in prices on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays comes from an increase in special events like weddings, birthday parties, sporting events, concerts, and more. These events typically take place on the weekend and in the evening.

If you’re looking for the lowest possible price, try booking a bus for an event earlier in the week to save a few bucks. If you aren’t able to change your plans to a different day of the week, be sure to book as early as possible, as many of our bus company partners raise minimum rental hours and price per hour when demand goes up on the weekends.

Time of Day Bus Rentals

If your group plans to start a trip in the late afternoon or evening, your charter bus rental costs will increase as well. Charter bus companies see the highest demand for buses during these peak evening hours from events like bachelor and bachelorette parties, weddings, and dinners, and raise their hourly rates to match the demand.

The lowest fares for charter bus rentals are on weekday mornings, so try to start your trip or event before noon. For trips with set times (like game-day tailgates and concerts), you may not be able to change the time. But if your event can be adjusted, we highly recommend a daytime gathering to get the best rate on your charter bus Denver.

Bus Amenities and Special Features

Many charter bus amenities and features are included in your rental cost at no extra charge, like WiFi, power outlets, reclining seats, and even accessibility features (just make sure you let your reservation specialist know if there are any accessible needs 48 hours before your trip begins.) However, depending on your vehicle choice, there may be amenities you’d like on your bus. For example, only some charter bus models include onboard restrooms and extensive luggage space. Newer models may also have features like satellite TV and Bluetooth hookups that older models do not have. Be sure to ask about any premium or other amenities available on your charter bus when calling.

Unexpected Additional Costs

Keep in mind that your quoted price may not include additional costs that you might encounter while traveling. Many venues and hotels require payment for parking oversized vehicles like charter buses. Similarly, some roads in Colorado have toll fees. So before you start planning your budget for your trip, call your venues and hotels to ask about their policies on parking charter buses, and check your route ahead of time for toll prices. If you’d like to give your bus driver a gratuity, which is typically 15-20% of the total bill, this will not be included in the quote either. Gratuity isn’t required but it is very much appreciated. Bring some cash to give to the driver at the end of your trip.

Tips to Get the Most Value for Your Charter Bus

Need to keep the price down for your group event transportation? It’s easier than you might think. Booking a charter bus from Westminster will always give you the best transportation solution at a competitive price. When planning your group trip, you can maximize your spending power by following these tips:

Finalize your headcount before you get a quote. If you add people later, you may have to switch to a bigger bus which would come at a higher cost.

Call as early as possible. Charter buses, like almost any other rental, will increase in price if demand and availability is low.

Shorten your trip. Shorter trips mean less time on the road, which reduces costs.

Book transportation from companies that have buses in your city to cut down on deadhead fees.

Ask about amenities when you get a quote. Some features like televisions come standard with newer buses.
