Charter Bus & Coach Bus Rentals in Jersey City, New Jersey

A charter bus is a large, comfortable vehicle that you can rent for private group transportation anywhere in Jersey City or the region. When you book with Charter Bus Company Jersey City, you get a bus and driver dedicated to your itinerary—whether that’s shuttling wedding guests from Liberty State Park to waterfront venues, taking students on field trips to Ellis Island, or moving corporate teams between Exchange Place and Manhattan. Your group sets the schedule and route, so you travel together on your own time. It’s basically door-to-door service for any group outing where public transit or carpooling isn’t practical.

We offer one of the most diverse fleets in New Jersey, including 56-passenger MCI, Prevost, and Van Hool charter buses for big groups; 18- to 35-seat minibuses from Grech Motors, Battisti Customs, LGE Coachworks, and Tiffany Coach Builders for smaller outings; 10- to 15-seat Mercedes Sprinter vans; and party buses that hold anywhere from 15 to 50 people. We also have school buses for budget-friendly moves and specialty vehicles like executive coaches with tables and Wi-Fi. Whether you’re moving 500 conference attendees to Harborside or sending a youth sports team to Secaucus, we have the right-size bus for the job.

Charter bus pricing depends on the size of bus, length of trip, and time of year, but most rentals fall between $1,620 and $4,900 total. Minibuses generally cost $1,490 to $3,465 per day, while full-size coaches run $1,900 to $5,000+ per day. Weekend rates are higher than weekdays, especially during peak spring and fall seasons when demand surges for graduations and festivals. Local round-trips within Hudson County may be quoted by the hour (usually four-hour minimum), but anything crossing into NYC or going down the Turnpike is priced by day or mileage. Use our online instant quote tool to get an exact number in less than 30 seconds.

The biggest factors are trip distance, duration, and bus size. Longer trips—like shuttling to Newark Airport or doing an Atlantic City casino run—cost more than short hops around Downtown. Larger buses with higher seat counts are pricier than minibuses or Sprinters. Other variables include whether you need the bus overnight (which means paying for driver hotel rooms), how many days you’re booking, and optional upgrades like onboard restrooms or custom wraps. Peak months (April-June and September-December) see higher rates due to heavy demand from schools and corporate events.

Booking is simple: call our 24/7 reservation line at 862-333-0060 or fill out the online quote form with your trip details. You’ll need to provide the pickup and drop-off addresses, date(s), headcount, and any special requests like ADA accessibility or luggage storage. Our team will send you an instant quote with pictures and specs of available buses. Once you choose a vehicle, we’ll confirm the reservation and send you a contract to sign electronically. The whole process can be done in under 10 minutes if you have your info ready.

All our buses come with powerful air conditioning, reclining seats, and overhead storage bins as standard. Most models feature free Wi-Fi, USB charging ports at every row, flat-screen TVs with DVD players, and PA systems for announcements. Full-size coaches include onboard restrooms, individual reading lights, and huge underfloor luggage bays that swallow up suitcases for overnight trips. Premium options like hardwood-style flooring, LED accent lighting, leather upholstery, and panoramic windows are available on select vehicles. If you need something specific—like seatback tray tables for working en route—just ask.

We serve every type of group imaginable: corporate commuters going to Manhattan via PATH, wedding parties getting married at Liberty House, school field trips to museums, college campus shuttles for NJCU and Saint Peter’s, youth sports teams traveling to tournaments, church retreats, union rallies, political campaign tours, film production crews, cruise ship transfers from Cape Liberty, and concert-goers headed to MetLife Stadium. Even bachelor/bachelorette parties bar-hopping in Hoboken or foodies doing pizza crawls in Brooklyn. If you have 10 or more people needing to go somewhere together, we can move them efficiently.

We cover all of Jersey City’s neighborhoods—including Greenville, Journal Square, The Heights, Bergen-Lafayette, and Downtown—as well as surrounding areas like Hoboken, Bayonne, Union City, Secaucus, and North Bergen. Regular destinations include Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), Midtown Manhattan via the Holland Tunnel, Prudential Center in Newark, American Dream mall in East Rutherford, and beaches down the Garden State Parkway. We also handle long-distance charters to Philadelphia, Washington DC, Boston, and beyond. Basically, if it’s accessible by road, we’ll get you there.

Your quote covers the bus, driver’s time, fuel, insurance, and basic amenities like Wi-Fi and A/C. It does NOT include tolls (which are significant on the Turnpike and Hudson River crossings), parking fees at venues, or gratuity for the driver. Any hotel accommodations required for overnight trips are the client’s responsibility to arrange and pay for. Optional add-ons like bottled water, snacks, or custom signage are extra. We spell out exactly what’s included in writing so there are no surprises on the day of service.

Match the bus capacity to your headcount plus a little extra room for comfort. For example, a 56-passenger coach is ideal for large school groups or company outings, while a 25-seat minibus works for small teams or church vans. Consider how much luggage or equipment you’ll be bringing—band instruments, coolers, strollers, etc.—and whether you want everyone seated together or split across multiple vehicles. If in doubt, err on the side of booking a larger bus so nobody has to stand. Our staff can recommend the best option based on your itinerary and budget.

Absolutely. You set the pickup points, departure times, and route according to what suits your group best. Want to stop for dinner in Chinatown or swing by a photo op at the Colgate Clock? No problem. Buses can be branded with magnetic signs or window decals for corporate identity. Inside, playlists, videos, or slideshow presentations can be played over the AV system. For recurring shuttles, we’ll assign the same driver and vehicle each day to build rapport with passengers. Special requests like birthday decorations or themed lighting are welcomed within reason.
