Bus Rentals in Mount Prospect, Illinois

A charter bus is a large, professionally operated motorcoach rented by a group for private transportation to and from specific destinations on a custom schedule. Unlike public transit or pre-sold tours, a charter bus operates entirely at the direction of the client, making it ideal for moving schools, sports teams, corporate groups, wedding parties, or event attendees. Modern charter buses typically seat 40–56 passengers and offer comfortable, climate-controlled, single-level seating with onboard amenities.

Charter Bus Company Mount Prospect offers a full fleet of vehicles from 15-passenger to 56-passenger full-size motorcoaches. Our most popular models include Van Hool CX and TX series (45–56 seats), Prevost H3-45 and X3-45 (50–56 seats), MCI J4500 and D4500 (50–56 seats), Setra S417 (56 seats), and Temsa TS35E (40 seats). We also have 15-, 20-, 24-, 28-, 30-, 35-, and 40-passenger minibuses, including Grech Motors, Turtle Top, and Federal Coach. Buses are available in black, white, silver, or custom wraps.

Most full-size charter buses include reclining cloth or leatherette seats, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, and a restroom. Entertainment options typically include up to five flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, and PA systems with cordless microphones. Newer coaches feature 110V outlets at every pair of seats, USB ports, and Wi-Fi with 4G/5G cellular routers. Optional amenities include seatback tray tables, LED accent lighting, and custom headrest covers. Minibuses offer similar seating and HVAC, with optional video monitors and PA systems.

Yes, all full-size charter buses have generous luggage space. Each passenger can bring one large suitcase (up to 50 lbs.) for the undercarriage bay and one smaller carry-on bag for the overhead parcel rack inside the cabin. The underfloor luggage bays span the width of the coach and can hold bulky items like coolers, band instruments, or sports equipment. Overhead racks run the length of the cabin on both sides and are ideal for backpacks, briefcases, or duffel bags. If you have special luggage requirements—such as skis, bikes, or trade show displays—let us know when booking so we can assign a coach with extra cargo capacity.

Yes, we can provide ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, and accessible restrooms. Many of our 40- to 56-passenger motorcoaches are available in ADA-compliant configurations that can accommodate one to three wheelchairs secured in the main cabin. The lift is located at the mid or rear door and can handle power chairs and mobility scooters. Onboard, there are designated tie-downs, priority seating, and an accessible restroom with grab bars. Smaller groups can request a 20- to 35-passenger minibus with a lift and one wheelchair position. Please specify your accessibility needs when requesting a quote so we can assign the right vehicle and coordinate boarding assistance.

Several factors affect the cost of renting a charter bus in Mount Prospect: the size and type of vehicle (minibus vs. full-size coach), the length and duration of the trip (local vs. out-of-town), the time of year (spring and fall are busiest), and any special requirements (parking, tolls, driver lodging).

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally 2 to 6 months in advance—to ensure availability and get the best rates. Spring and fall are peak seasons due to school trips, weddings, and sports events, so buses can sell out quickly. For major events or complex itineraries, book 6 to 12 months ahead. Last-minute bookings are possible but may be more expensive and have limited vehicle options. Once you have your trip dates and headcount, contact us for a quote and we can help you get pricing and availability for your trip.

For bookings made less than 30 days in advance, full payment is required upfront. We accept major credit cards, ACH transfers, and business checks. Payment terms will be clearly outlined in your contract. The deposit is non-refundable but may be transferable to a future booking if you need to reschedule.

Your quote includes the charter bus, driver, fuel, and mileage for the specified itinerary. Additional expenses such as tolls, parking, and driver lodging are not included and are the responsibility of the group.

If the trip requires an overnight stay, the group must provide or pay for the driver’s hotel room. All extra charges will be explained in advance.
