Booking a Charter Bus
Fill out the quick form on this page — or call 720-599-0420 — with your trip details. You are then taken to a search results page on a national booking company's website. That booking company partners with independent operators serving the Arvada area, and right there on their website you can review available vehicles, see pricing for your specific trip, and select the bus you want entirely online in just minutes.
What you are choosing there is a vehicle and a price.
At minimum: your pickup city, where you are going, how many people are riding, and how many hours you need the bus. The more detail you give — your specific stops, start and end times, how much luggage the group is bringing, and any amenities you need — the more accurate the quote comes back and the better the options you can find. More detail in means a better match out.
Right away — there is no waiting on a callback. As soon as you submit the form, you go straight to the search results page and see quotes on the national booking company's website immediately. If you would rather walk through your trip with someone, call 720-599-0420 and a live agent can go through the options with you and help you put together the right package.
The earlier the better, especially for a popular date, a larger group, or a specific vehicle type. That said, because Arvadacharterbusrentals.com puts your request in front of a whole network of providers serving the Arvada area rather than one operator with one yard, short-notice trips are often still workable — that is the real advantage of comparing a network instead of calling a single company and being told no. Submit your request or call 720-599-0420 even on short notice and see what is available for your date.
All of those can be requested. Hourly or as-directed keeps the vehicle with your group for a set block of time, moving on your schedule. A one-way transfer moves everyone from one place to another with no return leg.
A round trip brings the group back to the starting point. A multi-stop itinerary runs a set route with several stops along the way — common for brewery tours, wedding shuttles, or event days with multiple venues. A multi-day booking covers a trip that runs across more than one day.
Which format fits comes down to your specific trip, and a multi-stop or overnight itinerary should be laid out in full when you submit your request so it comes back priced correctly.
Charter Bus Pricing
A charter bus costs $205–$385+ per hour on weekdays, $225–$410+ per hour on weekends, and $1,650–$2,950+ per day. Those are planning ranges, not your price — there are different packages and a number of things that move a quote up or down, so the range is a starting point. The fastest way to see what your specific trip costs is to fill out the form and see pricing in seconds, or call 720-599-0420.
Going through your trip with someone on the phone can turn up better pricing and packages than you would find searching on your own.
It depends on the trip, and all three are used. A short trip of a couple of hours is usually priced hourly. A trip that runs long distance — roughly past the 100 to 200 mile mark, or heading well out of the Colorado Front Range area — may carry a per-mile charge instead of stacked hourly rates.
And a long day, generally around eight hours or more, often comes back as a day rate simply because the vehicle is booked for so much of the day. Which structure applies comes down to your actual itinerary — submit the trip details and the quote will reflect the right format for your route.
What moves the price: the type and size of bus, how long it is booked for, the day of the week and the date, the distance and route, the number of stops, and how busy that date is locally. What you can actually do about it: Sunday through Thursday prices lower than Friday and Saturday, and daytime trips price lower than those same nights. Booking the size the group actually needs beats over-booking capacity on a larger coach.
Grouping riders into one or two pickup points in Arvada instead of five separate addresses cuts the hours on the clock. And on high-demand dates — summer weekends, Colorado sporting events, and prom season — booking earlier rather than later is the single biggest factor in what you pay.
About Charter Buses
A charter bus is a full-size passenger coach that a group hires for its own trip, with its own route and schedule, rather than riding a fixed public route. It is built for moving a large group over a distance in one vehicle, and a full-size coach seats roughly 40 to 56 people. Your group has the whole bus, the whole itinerary is yours, and the driver goes where you need to go.
On the outside: a full-size coach body with high windows running the length of both sides and luggage bay doors along the bottom skirt. The exterior is usually finished in white, silver, black, or a solid color, though some coaches are wrapped in an operator's own graphics — so the coach that pulls up may not always look the same. Inside: forward-facing seats in pairs on either side of a center aisle, with seat fabric in cloth or leather depending on the make and model.
Overhead parcel racks run the full length of the cabin. There is a restroom toward the rear. Popular makes on the road include the MCI J4500, the Van Hool CX45, and the Prevost H3-45 — all full-size 45-foot coaches with the same basic layout, though interior finishes and feature sets vary by build.
Some of the amenities available on charter buses include reclining cloth or leather seats, individual climate controls, onboard restrooms, overhead parcel racks, undercarriage baggage bays, WiFi, 110-volt power outlets and USB charging ports, a PA system with wireless mic, and flat-panel TV monitors. Features may include any combination of those depending on the make, model, and how the coach is built out — what a specific vehicle carries is confirmed during booking. Note the amenities that matter most to your group when you submit your trip details, since that narrows which vehicles come back in your results.
Generally 40 to 56 passengers, depending on the make and model, with 56 the most common build on a full-size coach. The MCI J4500 seats 56 as standard and is built for up to 60; the Van Hool CX45 is the same, 56 standard and up to 60; the Prevost H3-45 seats 56. Shorter 35-foot coaches seat closer to 44.
What changes the count on the same coach: extra legroom configurations and wheelchair positions each take seats out of the layout. Because Arvadacharterbusrentals.com works with a network of providers, the exact coach on any given trip depends on what is available for your date — submit the trip or call 720-599-0420 if your group needs a specific capacity confirmed.
A 56-passenger coach runs 14 rows, with two seats on each side of a center aisle — forward-facing, paired seating, one aisle straight down the middle. The row count drops on coaches built with extra legroom or a wheelchair position, since those configurations take space from the standard layout. Some coaches also tier the front rows slightly for a better forward view.
On a standard 56-passenger build, 14 rows is the count.
A full-size charter bus is 45 feet long and 8.5 feet wide. To put that in terms that matter for planning — it is roughly the length of three cars parked end to end. That is the measurement people usually need when they are working out whether a coach fits a particular parking area, venue driveway, or loading zone.
Shorter coaches exist, most commonly around 35 feet, and those are sometimes used for smaller groups or tighter venues. The 45-foot coach is the standard full-size vehicle.
A full-size charter bus stands about 11 to 12 feet tall depending on the model, and traffic engineers generally design clearances for 12 feet. That is the figure that matters when someone is checking whether a coach fits under a parking structure, a venue canopy, or a low bridge — a little taller than a single story of a house is a useful mental picture. If a specific venue or route has a clearance concern, that is worth noting when you submit your trip details.
WiFi is one of the amenities available on charter buses, and many coaches on the road today are equipped with it. Whether a specific vehicle has it depends on how the coach is built out — it is an equipment option rather than something every coach carries, so it varies by vehicle and is confirmed during booking. One thing worth knowing before the trip: onboard WiFi runs off a cellular connection and is built for light use across a full coach — phones, messaging, browsing — not for 50 or 60 people doing bandwidth-heavy work simultaneously.
If WiFi matters for your group, note it with your trip details so the results narrow to vehicles that have it.
Yes — an onboard restroom is standard on full-size charter buses, located toward the rear of the coach. It is there so the group does not have to stop, though on a long run the trip is still typically planned with real rest breaks along the route. Whether a specific vehicle includes one may vary, so note it with your trip details if it is important to your group, and that will be confirmed during booking.
Yes — charter buses are built with 110-volt AC power outlets, and coaches are commonly fitted with them at every seat, some with a USB port built into the same outlet. This is an equipment option rather than something every coach carries, so it varies by vehicle and is confirmed during booking. In practical terms, a group can keep phones and laptops charged across a long run without anyone running out of battery by the time you reach the destination.
Note it with your trip details if the group needs it, and that will narrow the results to coaches equipped for it.
Yes — in two places. Inside the coach, overhead parcel racks run the full length of the cabin. Underneath the coach, undercarriage baggage bays run along the bottom skirt on both sides.
A full-size coach carries roughly 460 cubic feet of underfloor baggage space and around 100 cubic feet in the overhead racks. Across a full 56-passenger load, that works out to roughly 8 cubic feet per person underneath and under 2 cubic feet overhead — in practice, about one checked-size bag each below plus one small carry-on above. What changes it: a coach fitted with a wheelchair lift gives up some baggage bay space, and bulky gear like musical instruments, sports equipment, or event supplies takes the space of several standard bags.
State your luggage situation and any oversized items with your trip details so the right coach is matched to your group from the start.

Short-notice requests are still worth submitting, because the network is large, but earlier is always better on the high-demand dates.
