Fill out one form or make one call to 980-528-0640 and you get more options and different price points than you'd find by reaching out to a single local company.

Booking a Charter Bus
Fill out the form on this site or call 980-528-0640, and you're taken straight to a search results page on a national booking company's website. That booking company partners with independently owned operators serving the Mooresville area, and their site shows you what's available for your trip. What you're choosing there is a vehicle and a price — pick the one that fits your group, and book it directly on their website.
The whole thing takes minutes, no account required!
Your pickup city, where you're going, how many people are riding, and how many hours you need the bus. That's enough to get started. The more detail you add — your stops, your start and end times, any luggage or oversized gear, and the amenities your group needs — the more accurate the quote comes back and the better you can narrow down the right vehicle.
Laying it all out upfront gets you the best match!
Right away — there's no waiting on a callback. The moment you submit the form, you go straight to the search results page and see quotes on the national booking company's website. You can review vehicles, compare pricing, and book without anyone needing to call you first.
If you'd rather talk through it with someone, call 980-528-0640 and a live agent will walk you through your options!
The earlier the better for a popular date — a larger group, a specific vehicle, or a high-demand weekend like a NASCAR race at Charlotte Motor Speedway or a Lake Norman wedding in May all go fast. That said, because this site puts your request in front of a whole network of providers serving the area rather than a single operator with one yard, short-notice trips are often still workable. That's the real advantage of comparing a network instead of calling one company and being told no.
Submit the request or call 980-528-0640 even on short notice — it's always worth checking!
All of those can be requested. Hourly or as-directed keeps the vehicle with your group for a set block of time — great for a night out in downtown Mooresville or a wedding day with multiple legs. A one-way transfer moves the group from one place to another.
A round trip brings everyone back. A multi-stop itinerary runs a planned route with several stops, like a brewery crawl from Ghostface Brewing to Murto Made Distillery and back. A multi-day booking covers a trip that runs across more than one day, like a long-distance run to Myrtle Beach or Asheville.
Which format fits comes down to the trip itself — and a multi-stop or overnight itinerary should be laid out in full with the request so it comes back 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 points, not your price — pricing isn't one size fits all, and a number of things move a quote up or down from that range. The only way to know what your specific trip costs is to get a number for it.
Fill out the form online and see pricing for your actual trip in seconds, or call 980-528-0640 — 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 shorter trip of a couple of hours is usually priced hourly — a run from Mooresville to Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte and back, for example. A trip that covers significant distance — roughly past the 100 to 200 mile mark, or heading well out of the region — 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. Submitting the actual trip is what determines which structure applies — the booking platform prices it against your real itinerary!
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, and grouping riders into one or two pickup points instead of five cuts the hours on the clock.
In Mooresville specifically, NASCAR race weekends at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord — especially the Coca-Cola 600 on Memorial Day Weekend — and peak wedding season in May and September push the whole local market up. Plan ahead on those dates, and compare options to find the best fit for your budget!
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, not a fixed public line. It's built for moving a large group over a distance in one vehicle, and it seats roughly 40 to 56 people depending on the make and configuration. Your group has the whole coach to itself for the duration of the trip!
On the outside, a full-size charter bus is a tall coach body with high windows running the length of both sides and baggage bay doors along the lower skirt. The exterior is usually finished in white, silver, black, or a solid color — some coaches carry an operator's own graphics or livery, so the vehicle that shows up won't always look the same. Inside, you'll find forward-facing seats arranged in pairs on either side of a center aisle, upholstered in cloth or leather depending on the make and model.
Overhead parcel racks run the full length of the cabin, and a restroom sits toward the rear. Popular full-size coaches include the MCI J4500, the Van Hool CX45, and the Prevost H3-45 — all built along the same layout, with differences in seat pitch, trim, and amenity packages.
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 flat-panel TV monitors. Features may vary by make, model, and the specific vehicle — what's on a given coach is confirmed during booking. If there are amenities that matter to your group, note them with your trip details when you submit the request, and that narrows down which vehicles come back for you!
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 configured for up to 60; the Van Hool CX45 is the same, 56 standard and up to 60; the Prevost H3-45 seats 56. Shorter 35-foot coaches seat closer to 44.
On any of those, extra legroom or a wheelchair position each take seats out of the count. Because this site 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 980-528-0640 if your group needs a specific capacity!
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, and some coaches tier the front rows slightly for the view. That's the standard layout on a full-size motorcoach!
A full-size charter bus is 45 feet long and 8.5 feet wide. If you're trying to picture that: roughly three cars parked end to end. Shorter coaches exist — most commonly around 35 feet — and those come up when a venue or route has tighter clearances.
The 45-foot coach is the standard full-size vehicle you'll see on most bookings!
A full-size charter bus stands about 11 to 12 feet tall depending on the model, and traffic engineers design overhead clearances for 12 feet. If you're trying to picture it: a little taller than a single story of a house. That's the number to check against any garage, covered entrance, or low-clearance structure on your route before the trip!
WiFi is one of the amenities available on charter buses, and many coaches on the road are equipped with it. 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 by the specific vehicle. One thing worth knowing before the trip: onboard WiFi runs off a cellular connection and is built for light use across a full coach — phones, messaging, browsing — not for fifty or sixty people doing heavy work at once.
If WiFi matters to your group, note it with your trip details when you submit the request, and that narrows which vehicles come back!
Yes — an onboard restroom is standard on full-size charter buses, sitting toward the rear of the coach. It's there so the group doesn't have to stop, and on a longer run like a trip from Mooresville to the Outer Banks or up to Washington, D.C., the trip is still usually planned with real rest stops along the way. Note it with the trip details if it matters, and the right vehicle gets matched to the group!
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 Mooresville to Charlotte and back, or on a multi-day charter.
Note it with the trip details if the group needs it!
Yes — in two places. Overhead parcel racks run the full length of the cabin inside, and undercarriage baggage bays sit underneath the coach along the lower skirt. 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 below plus one small carry-on above. A few things change that count: 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 your group is traveling with anything oversized — a team's equipment for a tournament, or gear for a corporate event — state it with the trip details so the right coach gets matched to the group!
