Locate a couple of charter bus companies that rent minibuses. BusBank and US Coachways are two companies with offices throughout the United States.
Call each company to get quotes. This can be done over the phone or by utilizing the quote request form on the company's website. Compare each company's rates for the rental time frame. Inquire about its deposit requirements, its refund policy, and its booking and payment process. Find out how many local miles are allowed per day after reaching your destination and the charge for exceeding them.
Reserve your bus and pay the deposit. Let the account executive know the trip details such as the group size, the departure date, city and state of departure, and the destination. If you're going to be traveling with alcohol or if you have any special requests, make sure they are made known during your reservation so all your requests can be addressed and accommodated.
Pay your final balance, which is normally due 10 to 30 days prior to your departure date. Confirm your trip details.
