Several factors influence the cost of your bus rental, including trip distance and duration, time of year, type and size of the bus, and day of the week. To get the most accurate pricing for your unique trip, just ask!
Travel Distance and Time
Woodbridge bus rentals are priced based on whether your trip is local or long-distance. Local trips within Woodbridge or surrounding towns are usually calculated by the hour, with most companies requiring a minimum of five hours. Multi-day trips, like a week-long convention or a sports tournament, are typically charged by the day. If you’re embarking on a long-distance road trip, your rate will likely be calculated by the mile. And if you have a trip that needs transportation across multiple days, but you’re not traveling too far from Woodbridge, like a shuttle service for a multi-day music festival, you’ll be charged by the day.
Seasonal Pricing
The time of year affects bus rental pricing. Spring (especially April, May, and June), fall, and certain holidays tend to have higher demand for charter bus services, so you may want to consider traveling outside of these times for a cheaper rate. Events in Woodbridge, like the annual Independence Day Festival and Fireworks, also cause prices and demand to rise, so be sure to check local calendars to see if there are any festivals or concerts during your travel time.
Pickup/Dropoff Points and Bus Availability
If you’re starting in an area with limited bus availability, the price may be higher. Additionally, your price may increase if your bus has to travel a significant distance to meet your group at your pickup location. This “deadhead mileage” refers to the miles traveled with no passengers and is sometimes factored into the price, but not always. To keep this from happening, work with a bus company that has a wide variety of partners. Charter Bus Woodbridge works with over 5,000 different bus companies and has a statewide network that can typically find a bus near your pickup and drop-off locations to reduce deadhead.
Which Bus You Choose
Prices for mini bus and charter bus rentals can vary based on their sizes. Full-sized charter buses are larger, can seat up to 56 people, and often have extra amenities, making them more expensive than mini buses. Additionally, luxury bus rentals, like entertainer buses (also known as tour buses) come at a much higher cost than more standard bus models. Party buses also have a wide variety of pricing options. Smaller party buses tend to cost less, while bigger buses cost more. Newer models of any bus are usually more expensive than older models, but with age comes experience. If your group doesn’t need the latest technologies and prefers a budget-friendly ride, an older, well-used bus can provide the transportation you need for a reduced rate.
What Day of the Week Are You Traveling?
Weekend rates are generally more expensive than weekday rates for charter bus rentals. Weekends (Friday through Sunday) usually see a higher volume of bus rental requests, so prices tend to increase to meet the demand. In addition to higher hourly or daily rates, minimum rental times may also increase on Friday and Saturday nights. If you’re traveling during peak season or attending a special event, such as the New Jersey Festival of Ballooning in nearby Readington in July, we recommend booking at least six months in advance for the most competitive charter bus pricing.
What Time Are You Getting Picked Up?
Looking for a way to get the best price on your bus rental? Choose a time for your event during the day (between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m.). Charter bus rental companies typically charge an additional fee for trips that occur at night because of popular demand for events like proms, concerts, and weddings. If your trip can be flexible, you’ll likely get a cheaper quote for an event during the week or at an earlier time in the day.
Bus Features and Amenities
The good news is that most amenities, like WiFi, reclining seats, and extra leg room, are free with your bus rental. Other amenities—including onboard restrooms, an entertainment system, and ADA-compliant features—may come with an added cost. Don’t stress about your budget though, most costs will likely be factored into your estimated quote so you won’t need to pay for them out-of-pocket while you’re on the road.
Additional Fees
Some fees, such as road tolls, parking permits, and lodging costs for your driver, may not be included in your quote. If you need to organize lodging for your driver, be sure to call your hotel or venue ahead of time and inquire about complimentary rooms or discounts for bus drivers. Keep in mind that you’ll also want to factor in a 15-20% tip for your bus driver at the end of your trip.

Saving Money on Your Charter Bus Rental
How can you reduce the cost of your charter bus? It’s much easier than you might think!
Finalize your itinerary and headcount. We at Charter Bus Woodbridge have found that two of the biggest reasons for extra fees down the road stem from changes in itinerary or passenger count.
For example, if you originally reserved a minibus, adding four more people might mean that your reservation specialist has to book a larger minibus or even a full-sized charter bus rental, which will be more costly than originally intended. So, before calling in for your quote, be sure to finalize your passenger count.
Your mileage cost will also change depending on your destinations. Changing one or two stops on your itinerary may not seem like a big deal, but even a small change can increase your mileage and your final cost.
Reserve your bus as early as possible. When you book your bus, availability for bus types, amenities, and more is greater, and you’re more likely to get a lower price.
Choose a venue with bus parking or book a hotel that accommodates charter buses. Ask your venue contact or hotel receptionist about whether or not they can accommodate large vehicles. Some venues offer free parking for buses or shuttles while other venues may charge a fee for oversized vehicles. If you book a hotel, your charter bus could park there overnight for free!
No matter where your journey in New Jersey is taking you, we’re here to get your group there comfortably, and stress-free. Our reservation specialists can always find a bus at a great price, so let us make sure you don’t have to break the bank during your next group trip.
