Collierville Charter Bus Rental FAQs
About Colliervillecharterbuscompany.com
Colliervillecharterbuscompany.com is an advertising and quote comparison website that lets you compare bus rental options and pricing from a network of transportation companies serving Collierville through a national booking company. Fill out one quick form and you'll see different vehicles, packages, and prices in seconds — instead of spending an afternoon calling local operators one by one. Colliervillecharterbuscompany.com is an advertising and referral website and does not own or operate any vehicles. It connects you to a national booking platform where you can find, compare, and book the right bus for your trip.
No — Colliervillecharterbuscompany.com is a comparison and referral website. That means you use it to browse vehicles and pricing from a network of independently owned transportation companies serving the Collierville area, rather than booking through a single operator with a single yard. The transportation itself is carried out by those independent companies. Colliervillecharterbuscompany.com makes it easy to see your options and get a price fast, and the booking is completed on a national booking platform.
When you search on your own, you call one company, hear what they have, and move on to the next. With Colliervillecharterbuscompany.com, you fill out one form — or make one call to 901-714-6360 — and you're looking at vehicles and prices from a whole network of providers serving Collierville at once. More options, different price points, and no callbacks to wait on.
That's the practical difference: your time spent goes from an afternoon of phone calls to a few minutes on one page.
An independently owned transportation company serving the Collierville area. Once you submit your trip details, you're taken to a national booking platform where you choose the vehicle that suits your trip — the size, the amenities, the price. What you're selecting there is a vehicle and a price, not picking a company off a list.
The transportation company assigned to carry out the booking is confirmed to you after the booking is made.
Booking a Charter Bus
Fill out the form on this page with your trip details — or call 901-714-6360 — and you're taken straight to a search results page on a national booking company's website. That booking company works with independently owned transportation operators serving the Collierville area, and right there on their site you can see available vehicles and pricing for your trip and book the one you want online. What you're choosing there is a vehicle and a price.
The whole thing takes minutes, and there's no account required to get started.
Your pickup city, your destination, how many people are riding, and how many hours you need the bus. That's enough to get a quote started. The more detail you give — your stops along the way, your start and end times, how much luggage the group is bringing, and any specific amenities you need — the more accurate your quote comes back and the better you can match a vehicle to the actual trip.
Right away — there's no waiting on a callback. The moment you submit the form you go straight to the search results page on the national booking company's website and see pricing for your trip immediately. If you'd rather go through it with someone, call 901-714-6360 and a live agent can walk you through the options and help you put together the right package for your group.
The earlier the better for a popular date — a larger group or a specific vehicle type books further ahead. That said, because Colliervillecharterbuscompany.com puts your request in front of a whole network of transportation providers serving the Collierville area rather than one operator with one yard, short-notice trips are often still workable when a single company would have told you no. That's the real advantage of comparing a network.
Submit your request or call 901-714-6360 even if the date is coming up fast — it's always worth seeing what's available.
All of those can be requested. Hourly — sometimes called as-directed — keeps the vehicle with your group for a set block of time, which works well when the itinerary has multiple stops or flexible timing. A one-way transfer moves your group from one place to another.
A round trip brings everyone back to the starting point. A multi-stop itinerary runs a set route with several stops built in. A multi-day booking covers a trip that runs across more than one day, like a group heading to Nashville or the Smoky Mountains and coming back the following day.
Which format fits comes down to the trip itself, and a multi-stop or overnight itinerary should be laid out in full when you submit the request so the quote comes back timed and priced correctly.
Charter Bus Pricing
A charter bus costs $205–$385+ per hour on weekdays, $225–$410+ per hour on weekends, and $1,650–$2,950+ per day. Those are real starting ranges, but pricing is not one size fits all — the type of bus, the date, the distance, and the number of stops all move a quote, so the range is a starting point rather than your price. The fastest way to see a number for your actual trip is to fill out the form and see pricing in seconds.
Or call 901-714-6360, where going through the trip with someone can turn up better pricing and packages than you'd find on your own.
It depends on the trip, and all three are used. A short trip of a couple of hours — say, a group pickup in Collierville and a run into Memphis for a Grizzlies game at FedExForum — is usually priced hourly. A trip that runs long distance, roughly past the 100 to 200 mile mark or heading well out of the area, may carry a per-mile charge instead.
And a long day — generally around eight hours or more — often comes back as a day rate rather than stacked hours, simply because the vehicle is booked for so much of the day. Submit the actual trip details and the quote comes back in the structure that fits it.
The type and size of bus, how long it's booked for, the date and day of the week, the distance and route, the number of stops, and how busy that date is locally all move the price. Sunday through Thursday prices lower than Friday and Saturday, and daytime trips price lower than those same nights. Booking the size the group actually needs beats over-booking capacity — if 28 people are riding, a minibus is the right call, not a 56-passenger coach.
Grouping riders into one or two pickup points instead of five cuts the hours on the clock. In Collierville, dates like prom season in April and May, Collierville Christmas on the Square, and Memphis in May all tighten the local market, so those dates book higher and earlier than a quiet Tuesday in February.
About Charter Buses
A charter bus is a full-size passenger coach that a group hires for its own trip — its own route, its own schedule — rather than riding a fixed public route. It's built for moving a large group over a distance in one vehicle, and seats roughly 40 to 56 people depending on the make and model.
Outside, a full-size charter bus is a tall coach body — high windows running the length of the vehicle on both sides, and a row of luggage bay doors along the bottom. The exterior is usually finished in white, silver, black, or a solid color, and some coaches are wrapped in an operator's own graphics, so the coach that shows up won't always look identical to the next one. Inside, you'll find forward-facing seats arranged in pairs on either side of a center aisle — cloth or leather depending on the make and model.
Overhead parcel racks run the full length of the cabin. A restroom sits toward the rear. Common makes include MCI (the J4500 is one of the most common coaches on the road), Van Hool (the CX45), and Prevost (the H3-45) — all built along the same general layout, though the interior finishes and features vary.
Some of the amenities available on charter buses include reclining cloth or leather seats, individual climate controls, onboard restrooms, overhead parcel racks and undercarriage baggage bays, WiFi, power outlets and USB charging ports, a PA system, and TV monitors. Features vary by make, model, and operator — so "may include" is the honest framing, and the exact amenities on a given vehicle are confirmed during booking. If certain amenities matter to your group, note them with your trip details when you submit the request, since that narrows which vehicles come back in your results.
Generally 40 to 56 passengers, depending on the make and model, with 56 the most common build on a full-size coach. The MCI J4500 seats 56 as standard and can be built for up to 60. The Van Hool CX45 is the same — 56 standard, up to 60.
The Prevost H3-45 seats 56. Shorter 35-foot coaches seat closer to 44. What changes the count on the same coach: extra legroom configurations or a wheelchair position each take seats out of the count.
Because Colliervillecharterbuscompany.com works with a network of providers, the exact coach on any given trip depends on what's available for your date — submit the trip or call 901-714-6360 if the group needs a specific capacity confirmed.
A 56-passenger coach runs 14 rows, with two seats on each side of a center aisle — forward-facing, paired seating, one aisle down the middle. The row count drops on coaches built with extra legroom or a wheelchair position. Some coaches tier the front rows slightly for a better view of the road ahead.
A full-size charter bus is 45 feet long and 8.5 feet wide. A practical way to picture it: roughly three cars parked end to end. That's the reason people ask — they're working out whether one fits somewhere.
Shorter coaches exist, most commonly around 35 feet, and those are the right call when a venue or a parking situation is tight. The 45-foot coach is the standard full-size vehicle.
A full-size charter bus stands about 11 to 12 feet tall depending on the model, and traffic engineers design for 12 feet. A useful comparison for anyone checking clearance: a little taller than a single story of a house. Low-clearance garages, covered drop-off lanes, and some older parking structures won't accommodate a full-size coach, so it's worth flagging any tight approaches when you submit your trip details.
WiFi is one of the amenities available on charter buses, and many coaches on the road are equipped with it. One point worth knowing: onboard WiFi is an equipment option a coach is built with rather than something every coach carries, so whether a given vehicle has it varies. And on the performance side — onboard WiFi runs off a cellular connection and is built for light use across a full coach.
Phones, messaging, and casual browsing work well. Fifty or sixty people doing heavy work or streaming video at once will push past what the connection can handle. If the group needs WiFi, note it with your trip details so the results come back showing vehicles that have it.
Yes — an onboard restroom is standard on full-size charter buses, and it sits toward the rear of the coach. It's there so the group doesn't have to stop, and on a longer run — say, the five-plus hours from Collierville down to the Gulf Coast — that matters. On most long-distance trips the itinerary still includes real rest stops along the way.
If having an onboard restroom is important for your group, note it with your trip details when you submit the request.
Yes — charter buses are built with 110-volt AC power outlets, and coaches are commonly fitted with them at every seat, some with a USB port built into the same outlet. This is an equipment option rather than something every coach carries, so it varies by vehicle. Practically speaking, a group can keep phones and laptops charged across a long run — which matters on a trip from Collierville to Nashville or a multi-day charter.
If power outlets are a priority for the group, note it with your trip details so the results narrow to vehicles that have them.
Yes — in two places. Overhead parcel racks run the full length of the cabin inside the coach, and undercarriage baggage bays run underneath it along the bottom of the vehicle. A full-size coach carries roughly 460 cubic feet of underfloor baggage space and around 100 cubic feet in the overhead racks.
Across a full 56-passenger load, that works out to roughly 8 cubic feet per person underneath and under 2 cubic feet overhead — in practice, about one checked-size bag each in the bay below plus one small carry-on above. What changes it: a coach fitted with a wheelchair lift gives up some baggage bay space, and bulky gear like musical instruments, sports equipment, or event supplies takes the space of several bags. If the group is traveling with oversized items or a lot of luggage, state that with the trip details when you submit the request so the right coach gets matched to the group.
