Charter Bus Rentals in Moline, Illinois

A charter bus is a large motorcoach rented by a private group to provide custom, pre-arranged transportation to any destination. Unlike a scheduled city or intercity bus, a charter bus runs exactly when and where the group needs—whether that’s a single one-way trip, a round trip, or a multi-day itinerary with multiple stops. Charter buses are commonly used for school trips, corporate events, sports team travel, weddings, and large group tours.

Charter Bus Company Moline offers a full range of buses in Moline and the entire Quad Cities region, including 15- to 35-passenger minibuses, 40- to 56-passenger full-size motorcoaches, and several specialty vehicles. Our fleet includes vehicles from top manufacturers like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI, Setra, Temsa, Grech, and Turtle Top. We can also provide 18- to 28-passenger party buses, 6- to 14-passenger sprinter vans, and 36- to 44-passenger mid-size coaches. Many vehicles are available in multiple colors (black, white, silver, custom wraps) and with optional ADA accessibility. Call us anytime at 447-529-2760 to get a quote on any size bus!

Most modern charter buses include reclining seats with headrests, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, and a restroom. Additional amenities can include free Wi-Fi, 110V power outlets or USB ports at every seat, up to six flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, Bluetooth audio, and PA systems. Many newer coaches have leatherette upholstery, hardwood-style flooring, LED accent lighting, and optional seatback tray tables. Larger coaches (40–56 passengers) always include a restroom and multiple video screens; smaller minibuses (20–35 passengers) may have fewer monitors and no restroom but still offer Wi-Fi, power outlets, and luggage space. All vehicles have strong air conditioning, comfortable reclining seats, and storage for bags. Optional upgrades include leather seats, hardwood-style flooring, and custom branding.

Yes, every charter bus has generous luggage space both inside and outside the cabin. Full-size (40–56 passenger) motorcoaches feature large undercarriage baggage bays that can hold one full-size suitcase per passenger, plus carry-on items. Overhead parcel racks above the seats are perfect for backpacks, duffel bags, or smaller roller bags. Minibuses (20–35 passengers) have spacious overhead racks and may include a rear luggage compartment accessible from outside the vehicle, though they lack full underfloor bays. For most trips, each passenger can bring one large suitcase for the baggage bay and one carry-on bag for the overhead rack. Sports teams can easily store bulky gear cases; school groups can bring project materials; and airport travelers can handle multiple bags. If your group has extra-large items—like musical instruments, trade show displays, or athletic equipment—let us know in advance so we can assign a coach with maximum luggage capacity or arrange a trailer. There’s plenty of room for everyone’s belongings.

Several factors influence the cost of your rental: the size and type of bus, the distance and duration of the trip, the time of year, and any special amenities or requests. Large motorcoaches cost more than minibuses; longer trips and multi-day charters are more expensive than short local runs. Peak seasons—like spring and fall for school trips or summer for weddings—can drive up rates. Additional fees may include tolls, parking, and driver lodging on overnight trips. Major local events like the John Deere Classic, TaxSlayer Center concerts, or Quad City Steamwheelers games can also impact pricing due to increased demand and traffic congestion.

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance—to ensure availability and get the best rate. Spring and summer are especially busy due to school trips, weddings, and sports events, so advance booking is crucial. For trips during peak seasons or major local events like the John Deere Classic or TaxSlayer Center concerts, consider booking even earlier. Last-minute rentals are possible, but choices may be limited and prices higher.

Yes, we require a deposit at the time of booking to secure your reservation. The remaining balance is typically due 30 days before your trip. If you book less than 30 days in advance, full payment may be required upfront. We accept major credit cards, ACH transfers, and checks.

You’ll be responsible for any additional expenses incurred during the trip.
