Charter Bus Rental Renton, Washington

A charter bus is a large, professionally operated motorcoach rented by a group for private transportation to and from specific destinations on a custom schedule. Unlike public transit or scheduled intercity buses, a charter bus runs exclusively for the client’s itinerary—whether that’s a one-way transfer, round trip, or multi-day tour with multiple stops. Modern charter buses typically seat 40–56 passengers and are equipped with reclining seats, climate control, luggage bays, onboard restrooms, and optional amenities like Wi-Fi and video monitors.

Charter Bus Company Renton offers a full range of vehicles from 15, 18, 20, 22, 24, 28, 30, 32, 35-passenger minibus to 36, 40, 44, 47, 50, 54, 55, and 56-passenger full-size charter buses, plus several 60+ double-decker coach options. Common minibus models include the Grech Motors GM28/GM36, Turtle Top VT3, and Glaval Legacy, while larger coaches feature Van Hool CX45/TDX double-decker, Prevost H3-45/X3-45, MCI J4500/D45 CRT LE, and Setra S417/S407. Most buses seat 35–56, but we can run smaller 23–32-seat midsize coaches or 15–30-seat minibuses, and 60–81-seat double-decker coaches. Available colors include black, white, silver/gray, blue, red, and custom wraps.

Most full-size charter buses include reclining seats with headrests, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, and a restroom with toilet and hand sanitizer. Standard entertainment features are one or more flat-screen video monitors, DVD/Blu-ray player, and PA system with driver mic. Many coaches offer 4G/5G Wi-Fi and 110V/USB power outlets at every row. Optional upgrades include leatherette upholstery, forward-facing seating, folding tray tables, and Bluetooth audio. Minibuses have similar seating and HVAC, overhead racks, optional video monitor, and may lack a restroom.

Yes, every full-size charter bus has generous luggage space both inside and below the floor. Each passenger can bring one full-size suitcase (up to 50 lbs) for the undercarriage luggage bay and one smaller carry-on bag or backpack for the overhead parcel rack inside the cabin. The underfloor bays handle large items like duffel bags, roller suitcases, or equipment cases, while overhead racks are sized for smaller bags, coats, or personal items. For groups with extra baggage—such as sports teams with gear or musicians with cases—we can allocate additional bays or recommend a larger coach. Minibuses have rear cargo areas but no underfloor bays; they fit one small bag per person plus carry-ons.

Yes, Charter Bus Company Renton can provide ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, and accessible restrooms upon request. Many newer 40- and 45-foot coaches from MCI, Prevost, Van Hool, and Setra are built ADA-compliant with lift doors over the rear axle, tie-downs for 1–2 wheelchairs, and low-effort entry steps. We also offer the MCI D45 CRT LE—a 45-foot coach with a low-floor center section for roll-on access without a lift. Smaller groups can use an ADA minibus with a rear or side lift and space for one chair. Just let us know your accessibility needs when booking, and we’ll match you with a suitable vehicle.

Several factors influence the cost of a charter bus rental in Renton: the type and size of vehicle (minibus vs. full-size coach), the distance and duration of the trip (local vs. long-distance), the time of year and day of the week (peak season rates apply during spring and fall), and any additional amenities or special requests (Wi-Fi, PA system, custom wrap). Large events like Seahawks or Mariners games, concerts at Lumen Field or Climate Pledge Arena, and major festivals can also impact availability and pricing. Additional charges may include tolls, parking, and driver lodging for overnight trips.

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally 2–6 months in advance—to ensure availability and get the best rates. Spring and fall are peak seasons due to school trips, sports, and weddings, so buses can sell out quickly. For trips during busy times (May–June, September–October) or large events (Seahawks, Mariners, Sounders games), book at least 3–6 months ahead. Summer and winter holidays also fill up fast. Last-minute bookings are possible but may be more expensive and limited in vehicle choice.

Yes, we require a deposit at the time of booking to secure your reservation. The deposit amount is typically 30% of the total trip cost but can vary based on the size and duration of the charter. Full payment is due 30 days before the departure date. For bookings made less than 30 days in advance, the full balance is due immediately. We accept major credit cards, ACH transfers, and business checks. Payment terms will be outlined in your contract.

Your quote includes the rental of the bus, driver’s wages, fuel, insurance, and any standard onboard amenities (Wi-Fi, power outlets, AV system). Additional expenses such as tolls (e.g., SR 520, Tacoma Narrows Bridge), parking fees (Lumen Field: $40–$80; T-Mobile Park: $20–$50; Climate Pledge Arena: $40–$60), and driver lodging for overnight trips are not included and are the responsibility of the group. Any optional upgrades or special requests will be itemized separately.
