Trip Length and Amount of Time
Bus Rental Company Arlington Heights offers charter bus rentals and minibus rentals by day, by the hour, or by mileage based on your event. It all depends on what works for you. Generally, only local trips are charged by the hour, and most charter bus providers have a five-hour minimum! Multi-day trips or trips for those staying several days at one location will see rates by the day, while those taking longer-distance trips will be quoted by the mile. This means that you will want to keep overnight accommodations for your driver in mind for any out-of-town stays lasting more than one day, as driver expenses are your responsibility and not always included in your quote from Bus Rental Company Arlington Heights. If there are any additional fees or costs, such as parking or tolls, we will discuss those with you during your estimate call or during your booking confirmation call if you book online.

How Expensive Something Is Depending on the Season
Charter and party bus rates tend to be higher during busier periods. There’s a lot more demand during these times, and that lowers availability, so prices shift to take into account the higher demand. Spring (April, May & June) and early summer (July) are when we see the highest cost of rates—and they’ll also have a higher surcharge over normal weekends—when there’s a surge in bookings for events like graduation, business meetings, and wedding ceremonies, so it’s incredibly important that you book ahead if your event is in that timeframe. On the other hand, in the colder months or when school is not in session, you’ll be able to find better rates or even discounts. When planning a trip outside of those peak months, or if your event lands on a weekend, get a quote closer to the time, such as a few weeks in advance.

Where and How easy It Is To Reserve a Vehicle
Prices in the bus rental industry can also depend on geographic locations and regional availability. If you are traveling from a big, congested city like NYC, LA, or Chicago, you will pay more compared to starting in smaller cities, as there’s less demand for private bus rental services in rural areas. There are also more fees associated with city centers, like parking or tolls, that increase pricing in major hubs. The good news is that we at Bus Rental Company Arlington Heights serve all of the Chicagoland area, so we can always find the best pricing and availability! If you want to minimize costs, we also recommend reserving a bus that is located in your area.
Bus Variation and Size
Bus Rental Company Arlington Heights has one of Illinois’ best selection of vehicles in our network, so you can find a bus that’s perfect for your needs. For example, if you have a smaller group or prefer a compact ride around a city like Chicago, a minibus is best to navigate tighter streets and cut down on travel times. Alternatively, larger motorcoaches can come with premium amenities like onboard restrooms and TVs with DVD players, making full-size charter buses an excellent option for larger groups or longer trips. If you’re looking for a more specific configuration (such as a bus with an additional luggage trailer or one that includes reclining seats and tray tables) let one of our team members know and they will work their magic to find the perfect bus for you.
Which Day of the Week it is
Bus Rental Company Arlington Heights has the transportation to make your event, no matter what it is, a huge success! Whether it’s a Monday evening trip to the theatre or a bachelor party in a Chicago brewery, weekend charter bus rentals (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) tend to cost more than weekdays. If your trip is flexible, consider hosting your event or getting together with your group on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or a Thursday instead to get the best prices.
What Time of the Day You Reserve Your Bus
If you’re looking to spend the day at one of Arlington Height’s amazing attractions, or anywhere in the Chicagoland areas, Bus Rental Company Arlington Heights can set you up with a charter bus, limo, or party bus that’ll get your group there. From the Chicago Botanic Garden or the Cuneo Museum and Garden or Brookfield Zoo, you can customize the trip to fit the needs of your group — whether it’s a prom, wedding, field trip, or corporate retreat. Many charter bus companies tend to set higher hourly rates for evening (after 6 PM) party bus rentals for events like proms, and nights out in the city because those are peak reservation times, so if your itinerary is flexible, consider scheduling a morning, midday, or early afternoon to avoid surge rates during peak evening hours.
What is Included in the Bus
Many amenities come standard with almost every bus, like WiFi, reclining seats, power outlets, and A/C and heating to give you and your passengers a comfortable ride. Need something else, though, or looking for special features for a unique travel exploration? Maybe you want to get a limo that has a built-in bar or a party bus with TVs to watch movies, or perhaps you’re coordinating a field trip with students and need a charter bus that’s ADA-accessible with a wheelchair lift. These are all available upon request! Simply let your rental specialist know what you’re looking for and we’ll do our best to accommodate you!
Important Fees and Costs
Bus Rental Company Arlington Heights offers flexible pricing that’s customized to your itinerary. However, the cost of your charter bus may not include parking fees, road tolls, and driver’s gratuity (which are your responsibility). If you are unsure of where to park an oversized vehicle, or how much you should anticipate spending, one of our reservations specialists can help you out. Just ask them any questions that you might need answered and we can also include parking fees and tolls in your cost breakdown when generating an estimated price quote on your Arlington Heights charter bus, party bus or limousine.
Money-Saving Tips for Renting a Bus
Renting a bus can be surprisingly affordable, and there are some easy ways to reduce cost even further! Here are a few of our favorite hacks for more affordable charter bus rentals.
First, finalize your headcount. There may be a price difference of a few hundred dollars depending on which size bus you end up booking. If you add passengers to your itinerary later, it could mean you’ll have to upsize to the next bus model if there isn’t room on your current bus (not to mention the extra mileage cost and possible need for a second driver).
Next up, book your reservation early as bus schedules fill in advance, especially on weekends, during the summer months, and for special events. Booking your bus rental in advance ensures you get the best possible price and avoids the headache of surge pricing when availability is limited.
Third, we recommend reducing travel distance whenever possible. The cost associated with the miles driven to reach a pick-up point is called “deadhead mileage” and is typically included in your fee. For example, if a bus travels 10 miles and 10 miles back from the bus depot to your pick-up spot, you’ll cut that 20 miles off your trip by heading straight to the bus depot instead. Also, choose a destination city or location that’s fairly close to your start point to help decrease the amount of days you’ll need a driver (and the additional fees with that). Lastly, inquire with local venues near you to see if parking is available for an oversized vehicle. This can decrease parking and permit fees you might have to pay otherwise, and help save costs.
