Charter Bus & Minibus Rentals in Westland, Michigan

A charter bus is a large motorcoach designed to transport groups of people together for private events, trips, or functions. Unlike public transportation or scheduled intercity buses, charter buses operate on itineraries set by the customer, making them ideal for custom group travel. These vehicles are commonly used for school field trips, corporate outings, sports team travel, weddings, and multi-day tours, offering comfortable seating and onboard amenities tailored to longer journeys.

Specific makes and models include Van Hool CX45, Prevost H3-45, MCI J4500, Setra S417, Temsa TS35E, Grech Motors GM40, Turtle Top Odyssey XL, and more.

This makes it easy to accommodate sports gear, musical instruments, trade show materials, or multiple days’ worth of baggage for longer trips.

Peak seasons—such as spring for school trips or fall for sports schedules—can affect availability and rates. Additional costs may include tolls, parking, and accommodations for the driver on overnight trips.
