El Monte Charter Bus Rentals

A charter bus is a private, pre-arranged vehicle rental that transports groups of people to and from specific destinations on a schedule you set. Unlike public transportation or pre-sold tours, a charter bus operates entirely at the direction of the group that hires it, making it ideal for events like corporate outings, school trips, weddings, or multi-day tours. Modern charter buses typically seat 20 to 56 passengers and offer amenities such as reclining seats, climate control, onboard restrooms, and entertainment systems.

Charter Bus Company El Monte offers a full range of vehicles from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger full-size motorcoaches, plus several specialty and party bus options. Our fleet includes vehicles from top manufacturers like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI (J4500, D4500), Setra (S417), Temsa, Grech (GM40, GM36), Turtle Top, and Executive Coach Builders. We can provide multiple buses for large groups, vehicles with custom interiors, or anything else your trip requires.

Most modern charter buses include reclining seats, individual reading lights, climate control, luggage bays, overhead parcel racks, PA systems, DVD players with flat-screen monitors, and onboard restrooms. Many also offer Wi-Fi and 110V/USB power outlets at each seat. Larger coaches may have forward-facing video screens, while smaller minibuses typically have basic seating and limited luggage space. Premium coaches can include leather seats, wood-look flooring, and optional beverage stations.

Yes, full-size charter buses have generous luggage space with both overhead parcel racks inside the cabin and large undercarriage luggage bays below the floor. As a general guideline, each passenger can bring one full-size suitcase (to be stored underneath) plus one carry-on bag or backpack for the overhead compartment. The luggage bays can accommodate oversized items like sports equipment, musical instruments, or display materials. Smaller minibuses have limited luggage space and are best for groups traveling light.

Yes, Charter Bus Company El Monte can provide ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, and designated securement areas. Many newer 40- and 56-passenger coaches are available with built-in lifts and can accommodate multiple wheelchairs. Smaller minibuses can also be equipped with lifts if needed. It’s best to request an ADA-accessible vehicle when booking so we can ensure the right equipment is available for your trip.

Several factors affect the cost of a charter bus rental: the size and type of vehicle (minibus vs. full-size coach), the distance traveled (mileage), the duration of the trip (hours or days), the time of year (peak vs. off-peak), and any special requests (amenities or branding). Additional charges may apply for tolls, parking, driver lodging on overnight trips, and fuel surcharges. Local events, such as concerts at the Hollywood Bowl or games at SoFi Stadium, can also impact availability and pricing.

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally 2 to 6 months in advance—to ensure availability and get the best rates. Spring and summer are peak seasons due to school trips, weddings, and sports events, so buses can book up quickly. Last-minute rentals are possible but may be more expensive and have limited vehicle options. For large events or complex itineraries, booking 6 to 12 months ahead is recommended.

Yes, we require a deposit at the time of booking to secure your reservation. The deposit amount is typically 30% of the total rental cost but can vary based on the size and type of vehicle. Full payment is due 14 to 30 days before the departure date. We accept major credit cards, checks, and ACH transfers. Payment terms will be outlined in your contract.

Your quote includes the rental of the bus, driver’s wages, fuel, insurance, and any standard amenities (Wi-Fi, A/V system, restroom). Not included are tolls, parking fees, driver lodging on overnight trips, and optional gratuity. For example, parking at venues like Crypto.com Arena or Dodger Stadium can range from $40 to $150+ for oversized vehicles. These additional costs are the responsibility of the group and should be budgeted separately.

You can get a quote by calling our reservation team at 840-240-8620 or by using our online quote request form. Provide details about your trip—such as the date, pickup location, destination, group size, and any special requirements—and we’ll send you a personalized quote. Most quotes are provided within minutes. If you have a complex itinerary or multiple days, attach your schedule for the most accurate pricing.

Yes, you can request a specific bus model, color, or even a custom-wrapped vehicle. Our fleet includes buses in black, white, blue, red, silver, and gray. If you need a particular make—such as MCI, Prevost, or Van Hool—or want matching vehicles for a large event, let us know when booking. Custom wraps with company logos or event branding are available for an additional fee. We do our best to accommodate all special requests.
