Frequently Asked Questions About Charter Bus Rentals in Lubbock

Charter bus rates in Lubbock typically range from $197–$519+ per hour or $1,600–$3,800+ per day depending on the size of the vehicle, length of trip, and time of year. You’ll pay either an hourly rate (usually with a 4- or 5-hour minimum) or a flat daily rate for multi-day trips. Additional expenses like driver hotel rooms, tolls, and parking fees are not included in the base price. The fastest way to get an exact quote is to call Bus Rental Company Lubbock at 806-809-2120 with your itinerary—we’ll give you an all-inclusive price in less than 30 seconds.

The final price of your charter bus rental depends on several key factors: the size and type of vehicle you choose (minibus vs. full-size charter bus), the total mileage or number of days/hours your trip requires, the time of year (peak season rates may apply), and any additional amenities or special requests. Multi-day and long-distance trips will cost more than local single-day bookings. You’ll also need to budget separately for your driver’s gratuity (standard is 10–20%), lodging (for overnight trips), tolls, and parking fees, as these are not included in the base rental rate.

Your quote includes the cost of the bus rental itself, plus the services of a driver for the duration of your trip. It does NOT include the driver’s gratuity (we recommend 10–20%), hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips, tolls, or parking fees. You’ll need to pay those separately. If you’re flying into Texas, be sure to factor in the cost of a shuttle from the airport to your hotel unless you plan to use your charter bus for the transfer.

You should book your bus as soon as you have confirmed dates for your trip—ideally at least six months in advance for large events or travel during peak seasons (spring/fall). Buses can sell out quickly around major Texas events like the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo, Dallas St. Patrick’s Parade, Austin City Limits Festival, or college football gamedays in College Station and Waco. Last-minute bookings are possible if equipment is available, but you’ll have the best selection and pricing if you reserve early. A non-refundable deposit is required to secure your reservation.

We offer 18-passenger, 20-passenger, and 25-passenger minibuses, as well as full-size 56-passenger charter buses. All vehicles come with cushioned forward-facing seats, powerful A/C, and storage space. Larger buses include additional amenities like restrooms, TV monitors, Wi-Fi, and USB/power outlets. If you’re not sure what size you need, just tell us about your group and we’ll match you with the right vehicle.

Full-size charter buses add features like TV monitors with DVD/Blu-ray players, USB charging ports, PA microphones, and rear lavatories. Minibuses may have fewer amenities due to space constraints but can still accommodate requests for Wi-Fi or video screens. Additional options include leatherette upholstery, wood-look flooring, LED accent lighting, and custom branding on headrests or exterior panels. Beverage coolers, luggage trailers, and bicycle racks are available upon request.

Yes, our 56-passenger charter buses come equipped with a restroom located at the rear of the coach. The onboard restroom includes a toilet, hand sanitizer dispenser, and modesty curtain or door. While suitable for emergency use and short trips, we recommend limiting restroom usage to avoid unpleasant odors and maintenance issues. Minibuses do not have onboard restrooms due to space limitations. For groups traveling on minibuses, we suggest scheduling regular comfort stops every 2–3 hours.

Yes, most of our buses are equipped with either 110V electrical outlets, USB charging ports, or both. On full-size charter buses, outlets are typically located at each row of seats or shared between pairs of seats. USB ports may be integrated into the armrests or seat backs. Minibuses may have a combination of wall outlets and USB ports depending on the model. If access to power is important for your group, please specify this requirement when booking so we can assign a bus that meets your needs.

Yes, Wi-Fi is available on most of our buses upon request. The onboard Wi-Fi system allows passengers to browse the internet, check email, and access social media from their personal devices. Please note that bandwidth is limited and may not support streaming video or large file downloads. If your group requires continuous connectivity for work or entertainment purposes, contact us to discuss your options.

Yes. If your trip requires an overnight stay, you must provide a private hotel room for your driver at your expense. Most clients reserve a room at the same hotel where their group is staying.
