A charter bus is a private, large-scale passenger vehicle rented by groups to travel together on custom schedules and routes. Unlike public transportation or pre-sold tours, a charter bus operates entirely on the renter’s timetable, making it ideal for events like corporate shuttles to Parsippany-Troy Hills business parks, school field trips, wedding guest transportation, sports team travel, or multi-day out-of-state excursions. Buses typically seat anywhere from 20 to 56 passengers and come equipped with amenities such as reclining seats, climate control, luggage bays, onboard Wi-Fi, power outlets, and sometimes restrooms. Smaller versions, called minibuses, are available for groups of 18–35. All rentals include a driver and full dispatch support.
Most modern charter buses are 40–45 feet long, about 12 feet tall, and 8.5 feet wide. They have a smooth, rounded front end; large side windows (often tinted); and a flat rear. The body is usually painted white, black, silver, or dark blue, though custom wraps and decals are common. Below the windows, there are several luggage bay doors. The main entry door is at the front, just behind the right front wheel, and opens outward in two panels. The roofline is slightly curved for aerodynamics. Wheels are large, with either polished metal hubcaps or exposed lug nuts. The overall look is sleek, professional, and built for highway travel.
Full-size charter buses typically seat between 50 and 56 passengers, depending on the model and interior configuration. Common capacities include 50, 52, 54, and 56 seats. Smaller minibuses can seat anywhere from 18 to 40 passengers. For example, a Grech Motors GM40 minibus seats up to 40, while a Turtle Top VT3 might seat 20–28. Some larger coaches can be configured with fewer seats to allow for more legroom or additional amenities, but 56 is standard for most 45-foot motorcoaches. If you’re not sure what size you need, our team can help you choose the best option based on your group size and trip requirements.
Anyone who needs to move a large group of people can rent a charter bus! Common customers include school districts (like Parsippany-Troy Hills Township Schools) organizing field trips or athletic travel; corporations scheduling employee shuttles, training sessions, or conference transportation; wedding planners arranging guest shuttles between hotels, ceremony sites, and reception venues; sports teams traveling to games and tournaments; religious groups attending retreats or services; senior citizen organizations planning outings; and event organizers running festival or concert shuttles. We also serve military groups, construction crews, airport transfer clients, and families coordinating large-scale reunions or vacation travel. Whether you’re heading to Newark Airport, MetLife Stadium, or downtown NYC, we have a bus for you.
We offer a full range of vehicles from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger full-size motorcoaches, plus party buses and entertainer coaches. Minibuses seat 15–35 and are great for local shuttles, airport transfers, or small-group outings. Full-size charter buses seat 50–56 and are ideal for large groups, longer trips, or anyone needing maximum luggage space and onboard amenities. Party buses (with 10–40 seats) feature wraparound seating, sound systems, and lighting for special events. Entertainer coaches (sleeping 8–12) are built for band tours and come with bunks, lounges, and kitchenettes. We carry all the top brands, including Prevost, Van Hool, MCI, Setra, Grech, and Turtle Top. Not sure what you need? Call us at 862-418-0470 and we’ll help you pick the perfect bus.
A charter bus (also called a coach bus or motorcoach) is a large, comfortable vehicle designed to transport groups of 30–56 passengers over short or long distances. It offers forward-facing seats, luggage bays, and amenities like Wi-Fi, video screens, and restrooms. A party bus is a smaller vehicle (10–40 passengers) with a custom interior designed for socializing—think wraparound seating, LED lighting, powerful sound systems, and room to stand or dance. An entertainer bus (or sleeper coach) is a specialty vehicle used by touring musicians and performers. It’s built like a charter bus on the outside but has a custom interior with sleeping bunks, lounge areas, a kitchenette, and sometimes a shower. It’s designed for long-distance travel and living on the road. In short: charter/coach buses are for group transportation; party buses are for on-the-move celebrations; entertainer buses are for touring artists who need to sleep and relax between shows.
Most modern charter buses include reclining seats with headrests, individual reading lights, climate control (heating and air conditioning), and overhead parcel racks for small bags. Larger coaches often feature flat-screen monitors, DVD players, a public address (PA) system, and an onboard restroom located at the rear of the bus. Many buses now offer free Wi-Fi, 110V or USB power outlets at each seat, and Bluetooth audio systems. Additional amenities can include leather upholstery, tray tables, footrests, and tinted windows for privacy. On longer trips, the combination of Wi-Fi, power outlets, video screens, and a restroom makes it easy for passengers to stay connected, entertained, and comfortable throughout the journey.
Yes, most modern charter buses offer onboard Wi-Fi as a standard amenity. The Wi-Fi allows passengers to browse the web, check email, and use social media during the trip. However, bandwidth may be limited, so streaming video or downloading large files could be slower than on a typical home or office connection. If reliable Wi-Fi is important for your group, be sure to request it when booking your bus. Some older buses may not have Wi-Fi, but most newer models do. For the best experience, ask for a bus with upgraded Wi-Fi or multiple access points if you have a large group.
A full-size charter bus offers substantial luggage capacity, with up to 500 cubic feet of storage in the undercarriage bays. This is enough space for each passenger to bring one large suitcase plus a carry-on bag. The underfloor luggage compartments can accommodate items up to 36 inches tall, making them suitable for oversized bags, equipment cases, or even bicycles (if properly packed). Inside the bus, overhead parcel racks run along both sides of the aisle and are ideal for backpacks, briefcases, and smaller personal items. For groups traveling with extra gear—such as sports teams, musicians, or convention attendees—advance arrangements can be made to ensure adequate storage. Minibuses have less luggage space but can still handle a carry-on–sized bag per person. If your group has unusual or bulky items, mention this when booking so we can recommend the best vehicle.

Additional expenses can include tolls, parking fees, and driver lodging on overnight trips.

Yes, for overnight or multi-day trips, you’ll need to arrange and pay for a hotel room for your driver. The hotel should provide easy access to the bus and basic amenities. For longer trips, drivers are required by law to take mandatory rest breaks and cannot drive more than 10 hours without an extended break. If your trip requires continuous travel beyond these limits, a second driver may be necessary, which will incur additional costs.
Book early, especially for spring and fall trips. Provide a detailed itinerary with addresses and times. Consider parking and access at each stop—some locations may have restrictions. Communicate special requests (Wi-Fi, power outlets, ADA accessibility) in advance. Assign a group leader as the main point of contact. Plan for meals and breaks on longer trips. Prepare for tolls and parking fees. Confirm the final passenger count. Review the contract and payment terms. Provide feedback after the trip.
