Charter Bus Rentals in North Lauderdale, Florida

A charter bus is a large motorcoach hired by a group to provide private, customized transportation. Unlike public transit or scheduled intercity buses, a charter bus operates on a schedule and route set entirely by the customer. These vehicles typically seat 40 to 56 passengers and are equipped with amenities such as reclining seats, air conditioning, restrooms, and entertainment systems. Charter buses are commonly used for school trips, corporate events, weddings, sports team travel, and multi-day excursions.

Charter Bus Company North Lauderdale offers one of the largest and most diverse fleets in Broward County, ranging from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger full-size charter buses. Our fleet includes popular models like the Van Hool CX45, Prevost H3-45, MCI J4500, Setra S417, Temsa TS35E, Grech Motors EG40, Turtle Top Odyssey XL, and more. We also have party buses, entertainer coaches, sprinter vans, and ADA-accessible vehicles available in multiple colors and configurations to suit any type of group or event.

Most full-size charter buses include reclining seats, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, undercarriage luggage bays, a restroom, PA system, DVD player, and flat-screen monitors. Many newer models feature WiFi, 110V power outlets or USB ports at every seat, and Bluetooth audio. Minibuses typically have high-back cloth or leatherette seats, strong air conditioning, and optional AV equipment. Party buses come with wraparound seating, color-changing LED lighting, a premium sound system, and space for coolers. Specific amenities vary by vehicle, so please tell your reservation specialist what you need.

Yes, full-size charter buses have substantial luggage capacity. There are large, climate-controlled storage bays beneath the passenger deck that can hold suitcases, equipment cases, or musical instruments. Overhead parcel racks above the seats are suitable for backpacks, coats, or small bags. As a rule of thumb, each passenger can bring one full-size suitcase for the undercarriage and one carry-on item for the cabin. If your group has extra-large items or special cargo, please mention this when booking so we can assign a suitable vehicle.

Several factors influence the cost of a charter bus rental: the size and type of vehicle, length of the trip, total mileage, number of days/hours, time of year, and any special requests. Peak demand periods—such as spring break, graduation season, or major sporting events—can result in higher rates. Additional charges may apply for tolls, parking, driver lodging on overnight trips, or extra amenities like WiFi. Providing detailed information upfront helps ensure an accurate quote.

Payment terms will be clearly outlined in the contract.
