When determining the price of a bus rental with Charter Bus Longmont, you’ll want to keep in mind a few factors. Each factor will influence your final cost. It’s always best to book as far in advance as possible to secure availability for your preferred travel dates.
Trip Length and Travel Distance
Charter Bus Longmont provides transportation services for Longmont trips of all distances. Local bus rentals that stay relatively near Longmont, like an airport shuttle to DEN or a quick brewery tour throughout town, will usually be charged by the hour. Multi-day rentals such as charter buses to conferences and special event shuttles will be priced on a per-day rate. If your itinerary includes longer trips outside of Longmont to nearby cities like Boulder and Denver, or even across state lines, your trip cost will usually be determined by mileage. Be sure to map out your trip in detail before contacting us to receive the most accurate charter bus or minibus quote!
Time of Year (Peak vs. Off-Peak Seasons)
Bus rental demand will vary by time of year. You’re more likely to encounter inflated costs and limited availability when renting a bus in Longmont during peak travel months like April, May, and June. This is often referred to as “prom and graduation season,” and during this period, schools and venues book thousands of charter buses across the state. If your group travel happens to take place during this time, we at Charter Bus Longmont recommend booking your private charter bus service at least 6 months in advance to availability and the most competitive rate. If you are traveling in a low-demand season like January, February, or July, you may be able to find charter buses with more ease and better pricing.
Location (Availability and Start City)
You’ll usually get the best charter bus rental pricing if the bus originates in the city where your pick-up location is, since you won’t be accumulating mileage before your group even gets on board the bus. Mileage that is accumulated before passengers are on the bus is called deadhead, and to minimize deadhead costs, try to book with a bus company that operates buses close to the starting point in your itinerary. If you’re traveling from a more rural area, or the city you’re starting in has limited transportation options available, your pricing may be slightly higher due to low supply. If you’re in a time crunch, need to get transportation to a popular event, or your starting location is in a less populated area, then just give us a call and we can still help! We’re here 24/7 to find the right solution and price for you.
Bus Model Type and Group Size
Charter Bus Longmont offers an entire network of charter buses, minibuses, limos, and party buses for any size of group. Choose from a variety of buses and amenities to fit your needs and budget. The type of bus you book will impact the price you pay, since full-sized charter buses seat more people than mini buses or limos. Full-sized charter buses also tend to come with more premium amenities that may increase the cost of your rental, such as on-board restrooms, undercarriage storage, TV monitors, DVD players, and a PA system. If you’re traveling with a group of less than 35, your group will likely receive the best charter bus rental price with a minibus. Check out our charter bus pricing guide for a more detailed breakdown of bus types, prices, and amenities.
The Day of the Week (Weekdays, Weekends, or Holidays)
Weekdays are generally cheaper to rent a charter bus in Longmont and throughout Colorado. Prices and even minimum rental limits tend to increase on weekends and holidays because charter bus companies have more customers and less availability. Book a bus rental earlier in the week and avoid traveling around major holidays like Memorial Day, Labor Day, or Fourth of July if your schedule is flexible to secure a lower price.
Time of Day (Daytime vs. Nighttime)
Daytime buses have less demand than nighttime buses, which tend to be popular for events like weddings and holiday parties. Your price will probably be lower if your trip doesn’t take place at night. On average, charter bus companies have lower hourly rates and minimum rental hour limits between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. For example, if your charter bus company charges a 5-hour minimum and your trip takes 4 hours, you’ll need to pay for a full 5 hours if you keep the pick-up time during the day. If you’re starting your trip after 6 p.m. though, the minimum rental limit may be raised to 6 hours, and your rate may be higher too.
Charter bus Amenities
The buses we charter include standard amenities at no extra cost. These include WiFi, power outlets, and comfortable cloth or leather seating, climate control, overhead compartments, and more. Some buses may also include reclinable seats, DVD players with TV monitors, a PA system, undercarriage luggage bays, and an onboard restroom. Some companies charge additional fees for these extras, so it’s always a good idea to ask your reservation specialist at Charter Bus Longmont whether a certain amenity will affect your quoted cost. This way, there are no for your group at the end of your trip.
Unexpected or Additional Travel Fees
Sometimes the quote for your charter bus rental won’t include additional charges that are incurred during your travel, such as road tolls, parking permits for venues, and other costs. If your group travels require a rest stop for food or beverages, you may want to ask your driver to stop at designated rest areas along your route. Food at chain restaurants like Cracker Barrel can increase the cost of your trip, but are a great way for a group to refuel and stretch their legs during a long journey. Ask your reservation specialist at Charter Bus Longmont about costs like tolls and venue parking fees before booking your trip. That way, you’ll know exactly what to expect once you get on the road.
How to Save Money on Your Bus Rental
Want a few tips to get a lower price on your next charter bus rental? We have a few tricks to help you save money. Call ahead to book your charter bus, especially during the busy travel seasons. Finalize your headcount and itinerary before you book. That way, you won’t need to pay additional fees for extra passengers. Plan your group’s pick-up and drop-off points to be in the same city or near each other. This reduces “deadhead mileage” where mileage accumulates without anyone onboard. And less deadhead means more savings on fuel costs. Ask your hotel about charter bus parking! Not every hotel can accommodate a large vehicle. Verify whether your hotel has designated spaces for charter buses before you book. Or you can ask if your bus driver can park there overnight for free. Make your trip shorter. The less time you spend on the bus, the less it’ll cost you.
