Several key factors influence the cost of renting a charter bus in Union, including the type and size of vehicle selected, the total distance and duration of the trip, current demand based on seasonality and local events, and any additional amenities or special requests required by the group. Larger buses with more amenities generally cost more than smaller, basic models, while longer trips and multi-day itineraries increase the overall price due to additional mileage and driver compensation. Peak travel times—such as school breaks, holidays, and major events like sporting games or festivals—can also lead to higher rates due to increased demand. Finally, optional upgrades like Wi-Fi, entertainment systems, and enhanced seating configurations may add to the final expense.

We provide vehicles equipped with wheelchair lifts, securement areas, and additional accessibility features to accommodate passengers with disabilities.

You should book your charter bus at least four to six weeks in advance to ensure availability and get the best selection of vehicles. During busy times like spring break, summer wedding season, or major events such as the Tour de Elizabeth, demand is high and buses sell out quickly. The earlier you reserve, the better your options and pricing will be.
