Charter Bus, Minibus, Shuttle Bus Rentals in Federal Way

A charter bus is a large motorcoach rented by a group for private transportation to and from destinations of their choice. Unlike scheduled public buses, charter buses run on custom routes and timetables set by the client. They are commonly used for school trips, corporate events, sports team travel, weddings, and multi-day tours. Modern charter buses offer comfortable seating, climate control, onboard restrooms, and amenities like Wi-Fi and video screens, making them ideal for moving groups long distances efficiently.

Charter Bus Company Federal Way offers one of the largest and most diverse fleets of buses in Federal Way and the entire Seattle-Tacoma region, with vehicles that can accommodate anywhere from 15 to 56 passengers. Our fleet includes 15-passenger, 18-passenger, 20-passenger, 25-passenger, 28-passenger, 30-passenger, 35-passenger, 40-passenger, 44-passenger, 47-passenger, 50-passenger, and 56-passenger buses. We carry multiple vehicles from top manufacturers like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI (J4500, D4500), Setra (S417), Temsa, and Irizar, so it’s easy to get exactly the right size and style of bus for your group. Many models are available in multiple colors (black, white, silver, custom wraps), and we can provide matching or identical coaches for large groups that need more than one vehicle.

Most full-size buses include reclining seats with headrests, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, a restroom, and up to five video monitors with DVD/Blu-ray input. Many coaches offer free onboard Wi-Fi, 110V power outlets or USB ports at each seat, and a PA system with microphone. Premium models may feature leatherette upholstery, hardwood-style flooring, LED accent lighting, and flat-screen monitors. Larger coaches can be equipped with up to six video monitors, HDMI inputs for laptops or game consoles, and optional satellite TV.

Yes, all our full-size buses have generous luggage space both inside and outside the passenger cabin. Each coach is equipped with large undercarriage (underfloor) luggage bays that can hold standard-size suitcases, duffel bags, equipment cases, or bulky items like skis and coolers. Inside the bus, there are overhead parcel racks above the seats for smaller bags, backpacks, and personal items. As a general rule, each passenger can bring one large bag for the undercarriage compartment and one smaller carry-on item for the overhead rack. If your group has extra luggage or oversized items, please let us know in advance so we can recommend a coach with additional storage capacity.

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance—to ensure availability and get the best rates. Spring and fall are especially busy due to school trips, sports events, and weddings, so advance booking is crucial during these seasons. For major events or large groups, booking 6 to 12 months ahead is recommended. Last-minute rentals are possible but may be more expensive and have limited vehicle options.

Payment terms will be clearly outlined in your contract.

Your quote includes the bus, driver, fuel, insurance, and any tolls or fees. It does not include driver gratuity (usually 10-20%), parking fees, or lodging for the driver on overnight trips. For example, parking passes at Lumen Field and T-Mobile Park can range from $40 to $120 depending on the lot, while hotel parking in downtown Seattle may cost $30 to $60 per night. Any additional expenses will be outlined in your contract.
