What are the Factors Influencing Perris Bus Rental Pricing?

Charter Bus Perris works with different bus companies across the state, and each provider has slightly different rates. But generally, pricing is determined by several factors including trip distance and duration, time of year, day of the week, what time of day your trip is scheduled for, and any special requests. Keep reading to learn more about how each of those factors plays a part in your total bus rental cost.

Trip Mileage and Duration

Perris bus rentals are priced by the hour, day, or mileage, depending on your specific travel plan. If your group will be traveling within Perris or for just a few hours, you’ll most likely be charged hourly for your rental, with rates typically starting around $110 – $180 per hour for a standard-sized bus. Most Perris charter bus companies require a minimum number of hours per rental, so if you will be traveling for fewer hours than required, ask your Charter Bus Perris rep about alternatives that may be available. If you’re traveling longer distances or for longer periods of time, such as for several days or even weeks, like for a long-distance business trip with colleagues or for a sports tournament that requires overnight stays, your bus rental rate will be calculated by the day or mile. And even if you’re not going far, but your group needs transportation for multiple days in a row, such as airport transfers for a convention, your rate will likely also be based on daily charges. If your road trip plans are far-reaching and span multiple days and destinations, your charter bus company will calculate the total cost by mileage. To make sure that the quote you receive accurately reflects your travel plans, have your itinerary (including all pick-up and drop-off locations with their corresponding addresses) clearly mapped out. That way, you won’t have to pay extra for any unplanned detours or unexpected miles along the way. You’ll also want to keep track of any additional costs like parking or meals. These costs will not be included in your bus rental quote.

Time of Year (Seasonal Changes to Pricing)

Time of year can have an impact on your bus rental pricing, with rates tending to be higher in certain months. From April, May, and June, to late September and October, there’s a higher demand for party buses and charter buses for weddings, high school events like prom and graduation, conferences and conventions, sports tournaments, family vacations, and other special occasions. When a lot of people are hitting the road at the same time, buses become scarce and therefore more costly. If you plan on traveling during these months, it’s a good idea to book as early as you can, as much as six months in advance to lock in the best possible price. If possible, adjust travel dates for when buses are less in demand, such as in January or February, or even July.

Pick-up/Drop-off City and Availability

Bus availability is like any other product or service, and depends on supply and demand. So, how do pick-up and drop-off locations impact bus pricing? The further away your pick up or drop off point is from the charter bus company’s headquarters, or where the bus is located, the more expensive your overall rental will be. If your driver needs to drive 50 miles out of their way to meet your group, that adds 100 miles round trip to your total cost. When you call to book, your Charter Bus Perris rep can help find an bus company near your group’s pickup and dropoff locations to keep your mileage low.

Bus Type and Size

The most obvious thing that will impact your cost is what type of bus you book. If you’re traveling with a small group for a short amount of time or just need a shuttle service for an event like a wedding or a convention, then you’re probably best off booking a mini bus rental. Minibuses are typically cheaper to book hourly than full-sized charter buses. They can also come with amenities like free WiFi and power outlets, which are great for those who need to do a little work on the road. For large groups traveling longer distances, rent a full-sized charter bus that can seat up to 56 passengers and includes features like a bathroom to reduce the number of pit stops, and even more space for luggage and larger personal items in an undercarriage compartment. If you need something else like a party bus or sprinter van, we offer pricing for that too.

Day of the Week

For certain travel periods, including weekends and holidays, you can expect your hourly and daily rates to be slightly more expensive. For example, hourly bookings on Thursday through Sunday will likely cost more than those booked Monday through Wednesday. During the height of school proms, charter bus rates for Friday and Saturday evening rentals can increase exponentially. However, you could save by renting a bus on a day other than the weekend, like a Monday or Wednesday, to give your group of friends or family the best time on the bus.

Time of Day

Just as prices tend to be higher for weekend rentals, they are also higher during the evening. Most charter bus companies experience a spike in rates after 5 or 6 PM because of their popularity for special occasions and events such as weddings and nights out at the bar. Booking a charter bus during the day can be a cheaper alternative for trips such as winery tours and field trips.

Bus Amenities

Most bus amenities like WiFi, power outlets, overhead storage space, A/C and heating, a PA system, AM/FM radio and cushioned reclining seats are already included in your charter bus rental price. Other amenities, such as onboard restrooms, TVs with DVD players, and more storage space, may be added to your price quote.

Additional Costs

Your charter bus rental quote doesn’t include the driver’s gratuity or lodging, parking and road tolls, or even extra expenses incurred while traveling, such as meals for your passengers and any tickets or admission to events. We suggest factoring these additional expenses into your budget so you have the right price for your group trip or event.

Cost-Saving Tips

It’s easy to save a little extra on your trip if you think strategically. Here are our favorite tried-and-true cost-cutting strategies to consider when planning a trip:

  • Book as early as possible.
  • Keep your passenger count accurate before booking. If additional passengers get added after you have booked and you’re unable to fit everyone into the bus, you might need to make a whole new reservation, which could be less affordable.
  • Limit deadhead by booking a bus that’s located near your group’s pickup spot.
  • Keep your itinerary finalized and limit the distance traveled to minimize fuel costs.
  • Call hotels and venues on your itinerary to check parking options for oversized vehicles and buses.
  • Reduce the number of rooms you have to book for drivers. Choose a destination that’s close to your starting point and limit your trip duration to avoid additional costs for your driver’s lodging.
