Charter Bus & Minibus Rentals in Evansville, Indiana

A charter bus is a large, comfortable vehicle rented by a group for private transportation to and from specific destinations on a custom schedule. Unlike public buses with fixed routes, a charter bus operates entirely at the group’s direction, making it ideal for events like corporate outings, school trips, sports team travel, weddings, or multi-day tours. Modern charter buses typically seat 40–56 passengers and come equipped with amenities such as reclining seats, climate control, onboard restrooms, luggage bays, and entertainment systems.

Charter Bus Company Evansville offers one of the largest and most diverse fleets of buses in Evansville and across Vanderburgh County, making us a top choice for groups of any size. Our fleet includes 15-, 18-, 20-, 25-, 28-, 30-, 35-, 40-, 45-, 50-, 55-, and 56-passenger buses from top brands like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI, Setra, Temsa, and more. We also offer several different models of each bus type, including the Van Hool CX45 and TX40/45, Prevost H3-45 and X3-45, MCI J4500 and D4500, Setra S417 and S407, and Temsa TS35E and TS30. Many models are available in multiple exterior colors, including black, white, silver, gray, blue, and custom wraps. Just let us know your headcount and any vehicle preferences, and we’ll match you with a bus that fits your needs and budget.

Most full-size charter buses include reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, PA system, flat-screen monitors, DVD player, Bluetooth audio, 110V/USB outlets at each row, and a large restroom with running water. Many coaches also offer onboard Wi-Fi and optional forward-facing tables. Premium models may feature leather upholstery, wood-look flooring, color-changing LED accent lighting, and even galley space for refreshments. Minibuses include forward-facing seats, strong A/C, overhead grab rails, and optional Wi-Fi or Bluetooth audio. Larger minibuses have rear luggage area and 110V/USB outlets. Party buses feature perimeter seating, high-end sound system, Bluetooth, multiple flat screens, color-changing LED lighting, wood-look flooring, and optional beverage coolers.

Yes, our Evansville charter buses have plenty of luggage space for your group’s belongings. Full-size motorcoaches (40–56 passengers) are equipped with large undercarriage baggage bays that can hold suitcases, equipment cases, or bulky items—typically one large bag per passenger. Inside the cabin, overhead parcel racks run the length of the bus for carry-on bags, backpacks, or smaller items—again, about one carry-on per person. This dual-level storage makes it easy to keep the aisle clear while still accessing essentials during the trip. For groups with extra gear (sports teams, band equipment, or trade show displays), we can often accommodate additional items or recommend a larger coach. Smaller minibuses (15–35 passengers) have limited rear cargo space and overhead shelves, suitable for light luggage but not large suitcases. If you’re unsure whether everything will fit, just ask our team—we’ll help you choose a vehicle that meets your storage needs.

Yes, Charter Bus Company Evansville can provide ADA-accessible buses in Evansville and anywhere your group needs to go. Many of the larger 40- to 56-passenger coaches are available in ADA-compliant versions with a wide entry door, lift platform, flat center aisle, and multiple wheelchair tie-down positions. Several mid-size (28–35 passengers) and even a few smaller (20–25 passengers) models can also be supplied with a lift and securement area. Just let us know your accessibility requirements when requesting a quote, and we’ll make sure your vehicle meets all ADA standards for ramps/lifts, securement, and accessible restroom facilities.
