Charter Bus Rental East Meadow, New York

A charter bus is a large, private motorcoach rented by a group to provide customized transportation on a schedule and route of their choosing. Unlike public buses or pre-scheduled tours, a charter bus operates exclusively for the client’s party—whether that’s a school, company, sports team, wedding party, or any other organization—making pickups, drop-offs, and stops according to the group’s needs. Modern charter buses typically seat 35 to 56 passengers and include amenities like reclining seats, climate control, onboard restrooms, luggage bays, and entertainment systems.

Charter Bus Company East Meadow offers one of the largest and most diverse fleets of buses in East Meadow and Nassau County, including vehicles from 15 to 56 seats. Our lineup includes 15, 18, 20, 25, 28, and 32-passenger Grech Motors and Executive Coach Builders (ECB) minibuses; 36 and 40-passenger Van Hool CX35s; and 52, 54, 55, and 56-passenger motorcoaches from Van Hool (CX45), Prevost (H3-45), MCI (J4500), and Setra (S417). We also offer party buses (20–40 passengers), limo buses, and several ADA-accessible options. Most vehicles are available in black, white, silver, or custom colors.

Most full-size buses include reclining seats, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, undercarriage luggage bays, PA systems, DVD players with flat-screen monitors, and onboard restrooms. Many newer coaches offer Wi-Fi, 110V/USB power outlets at each seat, and Bluetooth-enabled sound systems. Optional upgrades can include leather upholstery, LED accent lighting, hardwood-style flooring, and video screens with HDMI inputs. Smaller minibuses typically have forward-facing seats, basic A/C, and a sound system, with select models offering Wi-Fi and USB charging.

Yes, all our full-size charter buses and most of our larger minibuses offer ample luggage space for your group’s belongings. Full-size coaches (35–56 passengers) are equipped with both overhead parcel racks inside the cabin and spacious undercarriage luggage bays that can accommodate large suitcases, equipment cases, or bulky items. As a general guideline, each passenger can bring one full-size bag for the undercarriage compartment and one smaller carry-on or backpack for the overhead rack. This makes it easy to transport luggage for airport transfers, multi-day trips, or events requiring extra gear. If your group has special storage needs—such as musical instruments, athletic equipment, or presentation materials—let us know when booking, and we’ll recommend a vehicle with the right capacity. Smaller minibuses (15–32 passengers) have limited luggage space, typically offering only interior storage behind the rear seats or in overhead racks, so packing light is recommended for those vehicles.

Yes, we can provide ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, and accessible restrooms upon request. Many of our larger motorcoaches and several minibus models are available in ADA-compliant configurations. Just let us know your accessibility requirements when booking, and we’ll make sure your vehicle meets all necessary specifications.

Several factors influence the cost of a charter bus rental: the size and type of vehicle (minibus vs. full-size coach), the total distance and duration of the trip, the time of year (peak seasons like spring and fall can be more expensive), and any additional amenities requested (Wi-Fi, PA system, etc.). Local events—such as concerts at UBS Arena, sporting events, or festivals—can also impact pricing due to increased demand and potential parking fees. Additional charges may apply for tolls, parking, and driver accommodations on multi-day trips.
