Charter Bus Prices in Hempstead

Most Hempstead charter bus rentals are priced by the hour, day, or mile, depending on the length and nature of your trip. For shorter local trips—such as shuttles between Hempstead and nearby towns like Garden City or Uniondale—we typically charge by the hour, with minimums ranging from 4 to 6 hours. Longer trips—such as multi-day events or one-way charters to destinations like Manhattan or the Hamptons—are usually billed by the day or by the mile.

As of 2024, you can expect hourly rates to range from $150–$350 per hour for a standard 56-passenger motorcoach, with mini-buses and party buses running slightly less. Daily rates typically fall between $1,400–$3,200 per day, while mileage rates average $5.50–$8.00 per mile. Smaller vehicles are less expensive; larger or specialty vehicles may cost more.

Several factors will affect the price of your Hempstead charter bus rental:

• Type of bus: Larger vehicles like 56-passenger motorcoaches cost more than smaller 18- to 25-passenger minibuses or party buses. Newer, luxury, or specialty models may also carry a premium.
• Trip duration and distance: Longer trips—whether measured in hours, days, or miles—will naturally cost more. Local Hempstead shuttles are less expensive than multi-day or out-of-state charters to places like Boston or Washington, D.C.
• Time of year: Charter bus demand peaks in the spring and fall due to school trips, sports seasons, and weddings. You’ll pay more during these busy months than in the winter or summer off-seasons.
• Pickup and drop-off locations: If your trip starts or ends far from our nearest bus depot—such as a one-way pickup in Hempstead with drop-off in another city—you may incur additional “deadhead” charges to cover the extra mileage.
• Additional expenses: Tolls, parking fees (such as those at Hofstra University or Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum), driver lodging for overnight trips, and optional amenities like Wi-Fi or DVD players can add to your total cost.
