About Busrentallongmont.com
Busrentallongmont.com is an advertising and quote comparison website that lets you compare bus rental options and pricing from a network of transportation companies serving Longmont, all through a national booking platform. Fill out one quick form and you instantly see vehicles, amenities, and trip-specific pricing side by side—no calling around, no waiting on callbacks. Busrentallongmont.com is an advertising and referral website; it does not own or operate any vehicles. The transportation itself is carried out by independently owned companies serving your area.
No—Busrentallongmont.com is a comparison and referral website, not a transportation company. What that means for you in practical terms: you use this site to compare vehicles and pricing from a network of bus companies serving Longmont, and once you find what fits your trip you book it through a national booking platform. The transportation itself is carried out by independently owned companies already operating in your area.
You get more options in one place than you would by reaching out to any single operator.
When you search on your own, you call one company, hear what they have, and start over if it does not fit. With Busrentallongmont.com, you fill out one form or make one call to 720-378-7833 and you immediately see vehicles and pricing from a whole network of providers serving Longmont—different bus types, different price points, all at once. You save the time you would have spent calling five companies separately, and because providers are competing for the booking, you are in a better position than you would be negotiating with one operator alone.
An independently owned transportation company serving Longmont. When you fill out a quote, you are taken to a national booking platform where you choose the vehicle that suits your trip—the right size, the right amenities, the right price. What you are selecting there is a vehicle and a price, not a company from a list.
The transportation company assigned to your booking is confirmed to you after the booking is complete.
Booking a Charter Bus
Fill out the quick form on this page or call 720-378-7833 with your trip details. The moment you submit, you are taken to a search results page on a national booking company's website. That booking company partners with independently owned transportation companies serving the Longmont area, and their results page shows you available vehicles with trip-specific pricing.
Right there on their website, you choose the vehicle and price that work for your group and complete the booking online. The whole thing takes minutes.
Your pickup city, where you are going, how many people are in the group, and how many hours you need the bus. That is enough to get started. The more detail you add—your stops, start and end times, how much luggage the group is bringing, and any amenities that matter to you—the more accurate your quote comes back and the better your options.
If you would rather talk it through, call 720-378-7833 and someone can walk through the details with you.
Right away—there is no waiting on a callback. The moment you submit the form you go straight to the search results page on the national booking platform and see pricing for your actual trip. No inbox to check.
If you would rather go through it with someone directly, call 720-378-7833 and you will have pricing in front of you just as fast.
The earlier the better on a popular date, and the more specific the vehicle or the larger the group, the further ahead that goes. That said, because Busrentallongmont.com puts your request in front of a whole network of providers serving Longmont rather than one operator with one yard, short-notice trips are often still workable—that is the real advantage of comparing a network instead of calling a single company and being told no. Do not talk yourself out of submitting a request because the date is close.
Fill out the form or call 720-378-7833 even on short notice and see what is available.
All of those can be requested. Hourly or as-directed keeps the vehicle with your group for a block of time so you can move on your own schedule. A one-way transfer moves the group from one place to another without a return leg.
A round trip brings everyone back to the starting point. A multi-stop itinerary runs a set route with several stops along the way—common for brewery tours, wedding shuttles, or event days that move between venues. A multi-day booking covers a trip that runs across more than one day, like a ski trip to Breckenridge or a group run to a conference in Denver.
Which format fits depends on the trip itself. If your itinerary has multiple stops or runs overnight, lay the full route out when you submit the request so the quote comes back timed and priced correctly.
Charter Bus Pricing
A charter bus costs $205–$385+ per hour on weekdays, $225–$410+ per hour on weekends, and $1,650–$2,950+ per day. Those are real planning ranges, not a single price—what your trip actually costs depends on the vehicle, the date, the route, the hours, and what is available in the network for your specific request. The range tells you where to start budgeting; the results page tells you your actual number.
Fill out the form and see pricing for your trip in seconds, or call 720-378-7833—going through the details with someone can surface packages and options you would not find on your own.
It depends on the trip, and all three are used. A short run of a couple of hours—an airport transfer from Longmont to DEN, a game-day shuttle to Empower Field in Denver—is usually priced hourly. A trip that covers significant distance, roughly past the 100 to 200 mile mark or heading well out of the Front Range, may carry a per-mile charge instead.
And a long day, generally around eight hours or more, often comes back as a day rate rather than stacked hours, simply because the vehicle is committed for most of the day. A ski charter to Breckenridge or Vail, for example, tends to land in that range. Submitting the actual trip is what determines which structure applies; there is no single rule that covers every itinerary.
The type and size of bus, how long it is booked for, the date and day of the week, the distance and route, the number of stops, and how busy that date is across the local market—those are the factors that move a quote. Sunday through Thursday prices lower than Friday and Saturday. Daytime prices lower than those same nights.
Booking the size the group actually needs beats over-booking capacity on a larger coach. And grouping riders into one or two pickup points in Longmont rather than five separate stops cuts the hours on the clock before the trip even starts. On the Longmont calendar, dates like Broncos home Sundays, CU Buffaloes home football Saturdays, prom weekends across the St. Vrain Valley School District, and the Black Hawk casino run in the fall all tighten supply and push prices up—if your date falls near one of those, booking earlier is the most direct way to hold a better rate.
About Charter Buses
A charter bus is a full-size passenger coach that a group hires for its own trip, with its own route and its own schedule, rather than riding a fixed public route. It is built for moving a large group over a distance in one vehicle—typically 40 to 56 people—and goes exactly where the group needs to go, on the timeline the group sets.
From the outside: a full-size coach body, high tinted windows running the length of both sides, and a row of luggage bay doors along the lower skirt. The exterior is usually finished in white, silver, black, or a solid color, and some coaches are wrapped in an operator's own graphics, so the coach that shows up will not always look the same from the outside. From the inside: forward-facing seats in pairs on either side of a center aisle, with fabric that may be cloth or leather depending on the make and model.
Overhead parcel racks run the full length above the seats. A restroom sits toward the rear. Popular makes you might recognize include the MCI J4500, the Van Hool CX45, and the Prevost H3-45—all full-size coaches built on the same general layout, with differences in interior finish, seat configuration, and amenity packages.
Some of the amenities available on charter buses include reclining cloth or leather seats, individual climate controls, onboard restrooms, overhead parcel racks and undercarriage baggage bays, WiFi, power outlets and USB charging ports, a PA system, and TV monitors. Because features vary by make, model, and vehicle, any given coach may include some of these and not others—the exact amenity set is confirmed during booking. If there is something specific the group needs, note it when you submit your trip details, since that narrows which vehicles come back in your results.
Generally 40 to 56 passengers, depending on the make and model, with 56 the most common build on a full-size coach. The MCI J4500 seats 56 as standard and is built for up to 60. The Van Hool CX45 is the same—56 standard, up to 60.
The Prevost H3-45 also seats 56. Shorter 35-foot coaches seat closer to 44. What changes the count on the same coach: extra legroom or a wheelchair position each take seats out of the total.
Because Busrentallongmont.com works with a network of providers, the exact coach on any given trip depends on what is available for your date and route. Submit the trip or call 720-378-7833 if the group needs a specific capacity and we will work to match it.
A 56-passenger coach runs 14 rows, with two seats on each side of a center aisle—forward facing, paired, one aisle down the middle. The row count drops on coaches built with extra legroom or a wheelchair position, and some coaches tier the front rows slightly for a better view over the front of the vehicle. The layout is consistent across the major full-size makes.
A full-size charter bus is 45 feet long and 8.5 feet wide. To put that in terms most people can picture: roughly three cars parked end to end. That is the measurement people are usually working out when they ask—whether the bus fits a specific parking area, loading zone, or venue approach.
Shorter coaches exist, most commonly around 35 feet, and a 35-foot coach is worth considering when the route involves tighter urban streets or a venue with limited maneuvering room. The 45-foot coach is the standard full-size vehicle.
A full-size charter bus stands about 11 to 12 feet tall depending on the model, and traffic engineers design overhead clearances for 12 feet. The reason most people ask is that they are checking a specific clearance—a parking structure, an underpass, a porte-cochère. A useful comparison: a charter bus is a little taller than a single story of a house.
If the route involves a structure with a posted height limit, flag it when you submit the trip details.
WiFi is one of the amenities available on charter buses, and many coaches on the road today are equipped with it. One thing worth knowing before the trip: onboard WiFi is an equipment option a coach is built with rather than something every coach carries, so whether a specific vehicle has it varies. And the honest expectation on performance—onboard WiFi runs off a cellular connection and is built for light use across a full coach.
Phones, messaging, and general browsing work well. A full coach of 50 or 60 people doing heavy work simultaneously is more than the system is designed for. If WiFi matters to the group, note it with your trip details so the results narrow to coaches that carry it.
Yes—an onboard restroom is standard on full-size charter buses. It sits toward the rear of the coach and is there so the group does not have to stop for a bathroom break on a long run. That said, on a longer trip the itinerary is still usually planned with real rest stops, because the onboard restroom is a convenience rather than a replacement for a full facility.
If an onboard restroom matters for your trip, note it with your details when you submit.
Yes—charter buses are built with 110-volt AC power outlets, and coaches are commonly fitted with them at every seat, some with a USB port built into the same outlet. This is an equipment option rather than something every coach carries, so it varies by vehicle. What it means practically: a group can keep phones and laptops charged across a long run to Denver, Vail, or beyond without anyone rationing battery life.
If power outlets matter to the group, note it with your trip details so the right vehicles come back in your results.
Yes—in two places. Overhead parcel racks run inside the coach above the seats, and undercarriage baggage bays run along the bottom of the coach underneath it. A full-size coach carries roughly 460 cubic feet of underfloor baggage space and around 100 cubic feet in the overhead racks.
Across a full 56-passenger load, that works out to roughly 8 cubic feet per person underneath and under 2 cubic feet overhead—in practice, about one checked-size bag each below and one small carry-on above. What changes that: a coach fitted with a wheelchair lift gives up some baggage bay space, and bulky gear like ski equipment heading to Breckenridge or Vail, musical instruments, sports bags, or event supplies takes the space of several standard bags. If the group is traveling with oversized items or an unusually large amount of luggage, state that with the trip details when you submit so the right coach is matched to the load.
