Bus Rentals in Cleveland, Ohio

A charter bus is a large, full-size motorcoach rented by a group for private transportation to and from destinations of their choice. Unlike scheduled public buses, a charter bus operates on a custom itinerary set by the client, making it ideal for group travel to events, tours, or multi-day trips. Modern charter buses typically seat 40–56 passengers and come equipped with amenities like reclining seats, air conditioning, onboard restrooms, Wi-Fi, power outlets, and luggage storage compartments.

Charter Bus Company Cleveland offers one of the largest and most diverse fleets of buses in Cleveland, with vehicles ranging from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger full-size charter buses. Our fleet includes multiple models of minibuses (15, 18, 20, 25, 28, 30, 35 seats), full-size motorcoaches (40, 47, 50, 55, 56 seats), and several party bus options (10–40 passengers). We carry vehicles from top manufacturers like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI, Setra, Temsa, Grech, Turtle Top, and Champion. Many vehicles are available in multiple exterior colors (black, white, silver, gray, custom), and several models offer deluxe or VIP interior packages with upgraded seating, entertainment systems, and additional amenities. ADA-accessible coaches are available in both minibus and full-size configurations.

Most modern charter buses include reclining seats with headrests, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, and large undercarriage luggage bays. Standard amenities often feature flat-screen monitors, DVD players, a PA system, and an onboard restroom. Many coaches now offer Wi-Fi, 110V power outlets or USB ports at each seat, and optional leather upholstery. Advanced models may have Bluetooth audio, HDMI inputs, and upgraded sound systems. Minibuses typically have cloth or vinyl seats, basic A/C, and limited luggage space, with optional Wi-Fi and USB charging. Party buses feature wraparound seating, LED lighting, a high-power sound system, flat-screen TVs, Bluetooth/AUX inputs, and may include a hardwood dance floor, ceiling/floor lighting effects, and one or two beverage coolers. Some larger party buses offer a restroom, multiple video screens, and optional dance poles.

Yes, our Cleveland charter buses have ample luggage space for groups of all sizes. Full-size motorcoaches offer both overhead storage inside the cabin and large undercarriage luggage bays that can accommodate bulky items like suitcases, equipment cases, or musical instruments. As a general rule, each passenger can bring one full-size bag for the undercarriage compartment and one smaller carry-on for the overhead rack. Minibuses have limited luggage space, typically with just overhead racks and a small rear storage area, suitable for carry-on-sized bags or backpacks. If your group has extra luggage or large items, let us know when booking so we can recommend a vehicle with sufficient storage capacity.

Several factors influence the cost of a charter bus rental in Cleveland: the size and type of vehicle (minibus, full-size coach, party bus), the distance and duration of the trip, the time of year, and any special amenities requested (Wi-Fi, leather seats, etc.). Additional expenses like tolls, parking, and driver lodging can also affect the final price.

For trips during busy times or involving special events (like Browns or Guardians games), booking even earlier is recommended. Last-minute rentals are possible but may be more expensive and have limited vehicle options.
