Mobile Charter Bus Rentals from Charter Bus Company Mobile

The cost of a charter bus rental in Mobile, Alabama typically ranges from $1,300 to $4,500 or more depending on the size of the vehicle, length of your trip, and other factors. You’ll pay either by the hour (usually $150–$350 per hour), by the day ($1,400–$3,200 per day), or by mileage ($5.00–$7.00 per mile) depending on the specifics of your trip. To get exact pricing for your trip, call our team at 504-607-7900 or use our online quote tool.

Charter bus pricing is based on several key factors: the type and size of the vehicle (minibus, full-size charter bus, party bus, etc.), the total distance traveled or duration of the trip (billed by the hour, day, or mile), the pickup location, the time of year (peak vs. off-peak season), and any additional amenities or special requests. We also factor in whether the bus requires an overnight stay, which adds lodging costs for the driver. Once we have your trip details, we’ll provide a comprehensive, all-inclusive quote so you know exactly what to expect.

Yes, a non-refundable deposit is required to secure your reservation. This deposit is typically due at the time of booking and will be applied toward your total balance.

We accept various forms of payment, including major credit cards and electronic bank transfers.

The final payment for your charter bus rental is due before the start of your trip.

If you book less than 30 days before your trip, full payment may be required immediately. We accept major credit cards and electronic bank transfers for your convenience.

We recommend booking your charter bus at least six to nine months in advance, especially if your trip falls during peak travel seasons like spring break, summer vacation, or major local events such as Mardi Gras, the Azalea Trail Run, or college football weekends. Early booking ensures the best selection of vehicles and allows ample time to finalize itineraries, parking permits, and coordinate any special requests. Last-minute reservations are possible but may be subject to limited availability and higher rates.

Yes, you are responsible for providing accommodations for the driver on overnight trips. The driver must have a private hotel room each night while your group is traveling. If your trip requires multiple drivers, each driver will need their own room. We recommend booking the driver’s room at the same hotel where your group is staying, but if that’s not possible, choose a nearby hotel of similar quality. You will also need to cover the cost of the driver’s hotel room(s) in addition to your charter bus rental fee. Providing proper accommodations helps ensure your driver is well-rested and compliant with federal hours-of-service regulations.

No, your quote covers the base cost of the bus, driver, fuel, and standard amenities, but additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, and hotel accommodations for the driver are not included. These extra costs vary depending on your itinerary and are the responsibility of the customer. You’ll need to pay tolls and parking fees directly during your trip, and if your trip requires an overnight stay, you must arrange and cover the cost of the driver’s hotel room.

In downtown Mobile, you can park a charter bus at the Mobile Civic Center parking lot, which has designated spaces for oversized vehicles and is centrally located near major venues and hotels. The Arthur R. Outlaw Mobile Convention Center also offers limited bus parking with prior arrangement. For groups visiting the USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park, there is a large parking area specifically designed to accommodate buses and RVs. If you need to stage your vehicle while passengers attend events or dine downtown, the Water Street Parking Garage allows short-term curbside loading and unloading on nearby side streets, though the garage itself cannot accommodate oversized vehicles. Always check in advance with your destination to confirm current policies and fees, as regulations can change and some facilities may require reservations or prepayment.

Mobile’s public transportation is operated by The Wave Transit System, which includes fixed-route buses, paratransit services, and downtown trolleys.

A private charter bus offers door-to-door service, custom scheduling, comfortable seating, onboard amenities, and reliable transportation tailored to your group’s needs—making it the best choice for schools, businesses, events, and travelers who need flexibility and convenience.
