Charter Bus Lauderhill partners with different bus companies across Florida, so prices may differ between each provider. Prices change depending on whether you are quoted by the day, hour, or mileage based on your trip plans, as well as what kind of amenities you need.
Trip Length & Travel Time
Lauderhill bus rentals can be priced by the hour, day, or mileage, depending on your travel plans. Local, one-off trips around Lauderhill will be calculated by the hour and often require a minimum number of hours. If your trip requires less time on the road, talk to your Charter Bus Lauderhill representative. They’ll work with you to find something for you, like an hourly package or one-way. Multi-day trips across Florida, like those to Disney World or for a convention in Orlando are typically calculated by the day. Similarly, if you’re traveling within Lauderhill but need transportation over several consecutive days (such as a wedding shuttle service or event transportation), your rate will likely be based on a daily fee.
Longer road trips will be calculated based on the distance or mileage traveled. If you’re headed out of Lauderhill for a while, like if you are visiting popular cities such as Atlanta or Miami or destinations like Daytona Beach, you will more than likely be charged based on mileage rates and the distance of your trip. When planning an itinerary for this type of trip, it’s important to have every pick-up, drop-off and stopover location ready, with addresses. This will help to ensure that the price quote you receive is tailored to your itinerary. In addition, don’t forget to budget for the bus’s parking and toll fees, driver expenses and lodging costs during multi-day excursions, and tickets for any activities your group may be partaking in.
Travel Seasons and Time of Year
Charter bus prices fluctuate seasonally. Charter Bus Lauderhill recommends booking your Florida bus rental as early as possible for the best price due to fluctuations during the peak and off seasons.
The busy season for buses is spring and summer, from April to June and from mid-September to late October, and charter bus rentals will cost more because of increased demand and limited supply. Special events and occasions like graduations, birthday parties, and wedding ceremonies contribute to higher prices during these months. Larger events like college sports games can also impact availability and make it more difficult to secure the charter bus rental.
Booking during off-season can help alleviate some of your budgeting stress. The prices are likely to be more affordable because there’s less demand and less competition for charter buses. Traveling during slower parts of the year will also grant you and your travel party more flexibility when it comes to itinerary or additional amenities.
Where You Are and Bus Availability
If you’re trying to book last-minute in a smaller city with a limited bus network, your rate will likely be higher. To minimize costs on last-minute trips, try to book your charter bus from a company located in the city where your pick-up spot is located. This can also help reduce the additional costs incurred if your driver needs to travel a long distance without passengers to reach you. This mileage is called “deadhead,” and is an additional cost you’ll have to pay for.
Which Bus to Book & How Big
Party buses, mini buses, and full-size charter buses come in a range of sizes and interior layouts. For shorter trips, smaller gatherings, or those looking for a cheaper bus rental, minibuses and shuttle bus rentals are your best option. If you need to book group transportation for a longer trip with a large group, such as for a wedding or a sports team, full-size charter bus rentals, such as the 56-passenger charter bus, are your best choice. This kind of bus is designed with extra space for all passengers to travel comfortably and store luggage, with overhead parcel racks, and undercarriage storage, too. You can also request other amenities, including reclining seats with extra legroom, flat-screen televisions with a DVD player, an onboard restroom, and many more.
Your reservation specialist at Charter Bus Lauderhill can help you find just the right vehicle. They’ll also be able to connect you with an ADA-compliant bus if you have passengers with disabilities.
Time of the Week
Weekend rentals (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) are generally more expensive than weekday rentals (Monday–Thursday). When there is less demand for charter bus rentals in Lauderhill (for example, on Tuesdays or Wednesdays and as long as you aren’t traveling during a special event), you’re more likely to be given a lower rate. If your group event can be rescheduled to an earlier day, we recommend doing so in order to have the best pricing.
The charter bus industry is also heavily impacted by prom, homecoming, and graduation season. Students across the state’s 1000 high schools schedule their dances on Friday and Saturday nights, so if you’re booking a charter bus during the traditional spring prom season (April through June), we highly recommend booking far in advance if you want a bus with great amenities like wraparound seats, bar areas, and TVs. We also recommend that if you are planning these trips to book them during the off season.
Time of Day
If you’re looking to book a charter bus for the lowest cost, try to schedule your trip for the day! Since buses and minibuses are popular for special occasions like parties, weddings, bachelor/bachelorette parties, and concerts—most companies raise their hourly rates to meet the increased demand from the afternoon through the evening hours. Fridays and Saturdays usually have the highest demand, as you can probably imagine. This means these peak times often come with increased hourly prices and even higher minimums for how long you can rent a bus or minibus. Try scheduling a day trip to a local winery or a daytime birthday party to get the best rate on your charter bus rental.
Available Amenities
Most charter bus models come with all of the features you’ll need for a comfortable and entertaining ride in Lauderhill—including free WiFi, power outlets, restrooms and luggage bays, DVD players and more. If you have a specific amenity you need for your group while on the road, be sure to ask your reservation specialist about its availability. Features such as WiFi, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage storage space come standard on most full-size models of charter bus, but are not always guaranteed on mini bus rentals or school bus rentals. Your price quote will include any additional amenities that you request and book ahead of time.
Additional Fees
Your charter bus quote won’t include road tolls, parking permits, tips for your driver, and lodging expenses for your driver if your trip spans multiple days. Be prepared to cover these expenses yourself while traveling or ask your Charter Bus Lauderhill representative if these fees can be calculated in your original quote. If you decide not to pay for parking fees and other costs ahead of time, you may want to bring cash along with you to ensure you’re able to pay these costs on the spot.
Ways to Save Money on Your Charter Bus Rental
Here are a few tips to make your charter bus rental cheaper!
- Call as far in advance as possible to book, especially if you’re traveling during the summer months.
- Finalize your passenger count to make sure you don’t pay for more space than you need, but also that you don’t need to change the bus rental at the last minute.
- Ask about prepaying or paying for the entire cost of the rental upfront to see if you can save a little.
- Minimize mileage on the bus with no passengers by starting your trip in the city your bus is stationed in, or by reducing the distance between your final destination and your drop-off city. This will also save you money on gas for your bus.
- Call your hotels and any event venues to see if they have parking accommodations for oversize vehicles. If your hotel does not provide bus parking, try to find nearby venues that offer it and change your pick-up and drop-off accordingly.
