Bus Rentals in Cleveland, Ohio

A charter bus is a large motorcoach rented by a group to provide private, pre-arranged transportation. Unlike public transit or scheduled intercity buses, a charter bus operates on a custom itinerary set by the customer—making it ideal for moving large groups to events, meetings, or multiple destinations efficiently. Charter buses typically seat 40 to 56 passengers and are equipped with comfortable, high-backed seats and climate control, and often feature amenities like restrooms, WiFi, and video monitors.

Charter Bus Company Cleveland offers one of the largest selections of buses in Cleveland and across Ohio, ranging from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger full-size charter buses, party buses, entertainer coaches, and specialty vehicles. Our fleet includes popular makes and models such as the Prevost H3-45, MCI J4500, Van Hool CX45, Setra S417, Temsa TS35E, Grech Motors GM40, Turtle Top Odyssey XL, and more. We can accommodate groups of any size for any type of event or trip.

Most full-size charter buses include reclining seats, individual reading lights, air conditioning, overhead parcel racks, undercarriage luggage bays, a restroom, multiple flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, a PA system, and power outlets or USB ports at each row. Many buses also offer free onboard WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity. Minibuses typically have forward-facing seats, A/C, and storage racks, with optional AV systems. Premium coaches may feature leather upholstery, wood-look flooring, LED accent lighting, galley kitchens, or conference tables.

Yes, our charter buses have plenty of luggage space for your group’s belongings. Full-size motorcoaches are equipped with large undercarriage baggage bays that can accommodate suitcases, equipment cases, or bulky items like skis and coolers. There are also overhead parcel racks inside the cabin for smaller bags, backpacks, or jackets. As a general rule, each passenger can bring one full-size suitcase for the luggage bay and one carry-on item for the overhead compartment. If you have extra-large or unusual cargo, let us know so we can dispatch a bus with additional storage capacity.

Several factors influence charter bus pricing in Cleveland: the type and size of vehicle (minibus vs. motorcoach), length of the trip (hours or days), total mileage, pickup and drop-off locations, time of year (peak demand during spring and fall), and any special requests for amenities or branding. Large events such as NFL games, NBA playoffs, concerts, or festivals can increase rates due to high demand. Additional costs may include tolls, parking fees, and driver lodging for overnight trips.

It’s best to book your charter bus at least three to six months in advance, especially if your trip falls during peak season (April-June for school trips and weddings, September-October for sports and corporate events). Large events like the NFL Draft, MLB All-Star Game, or major concerts can sell out even earlier. For smaller groups or off-peak travel, one to two months may be sufficient. Last-minute bookings are possible but subject to availability.

Yes, we require a deposit at the time of booking to secure your reservation. The deposit amount is typically 30-50% of the total charter price. Full payment is due 14 to 30 days before the date of service. We accept major credit cards, checks, ACH transfers, and purchase orders from approved institutions. Payment terms will be outlined in your contract. Please contact us if you need to arrange a custom payment schedule.
