20 Passenger Minibus

You can choose from a wide selection of exterior colors when you book a 20-passenger minibus rental with Charter Bus Company Moorhead. Our fleet includes classic options like black, white, silver, and grey, as well as blue, red, navy, and even yellow for something more distinctive. If you have a specific preference, let us know—we’ll do our best to match it. We also offer custom wraps for branding or special events, giving you complete flexibility over the appearance of your vehicle. Whether you want something that blends in or stands out, we have a color option that will work for your group.

Amenities on a 20-passenger minibus rental typically include cushioned forward-facing seats with vinyl or cloth upholstery, individual air conditioning vents, and overhead lighting. There are grab handles for safety, and the floor is finished with durable nonslip material. Each door has a manual or electric step for easy entry and exit. Windows are large and clear, providing good visibility. The interior is designed to be functional and low-maintenance, suitable for short trips around town or longer highway journeys. While this is one of the more basic models in our fleet, it covers all the essentials for comfortable group travel. If you need something more fully featured, we recommend upgrading to a different model year or trim level—we have plenty of options available.

Renting a 20-passenger minibus in Moorhead typically costs between $150 and $440+ per hour, $1,610 to $3,365 per day, or $4.00 to $8.95 per mile. The final price depends on several factors including the length of the trip, the time of year, and the exact pickup location. Moorhead’s proximity to Fargo means you get big-city service without always paying downtown rates, but events like college graduations, wedding season, or overlapping festivals can push prices higher due to increased demand. Multi-day trips requiring overnight stays will be quoted by the day, while local transfers might be billed hourly with a minimum block of hours. Additional costs not included in the base rate are parking fees at venues, tolls along the route, and hotel accommodations for the driver if an overnight is required. Gratuity is included in the quote, but customers are responsible for securing and paying for any necessary parking passes or permits at their destination. For the most accurate estimate, contact us with your full itinerary and we’ll provide a detailed quote tailored to your exact needs.

The 20-passenger minibus strikes a perfect balance between capacity and maneuverability, making it one of the most versatile options in our fleet. Compared to larger vehicles like a 56-passenger charter bus, the 20-passenger minibus is easier to navigate through city streets and requires less space for parking, while still offering ample seating for mid-sized groups. It’s significantly more spacious and comfortable than a traditional 15-passenger van, with wider aisles and better headroom. Smaller than our 25- or 30-passenger minibuses, this model is ideal for groups that don’t quite fill a full-size bus but still want to travel together in one vehicle. Like all our buses, it comes equipped with modern amenities and can be customized to suit the needs of your trip. Whether you’re comparing luggage capacity, seating comfort, or overall footprint, the 20-passenger minibus delivers excellent value and flexibility for its size class.

We recommend booking your 20-passenger minibus rental as early as possible—ideally three to six months before your event—to ensure the best selection and pricing. Spring and summer are peak seasons in Moorhead due to weddings, graduation ceremonies at Minnesota State University Moorhead and Concordia College, and local festivals like the Moorhead Farmers Market and Greater Fargo-Moorhead Pride, so availability can become limited quickly. Fall events such as homecoming games and regional conferences also drive high demand. Last-minute reservations are possible if we have vehicles available, but booking early gives you more options for amenities and scheduling. If your trip falls on a holiday weekend or during a major local event, securing your minibus several months in advance is the best way to guarantee service. Contact us as soon as you have your dates finalized—we’re here to help you lock in the right vehicle for your group.

The luggage capacity of a 20-passenger minibus rental in Moorhead is sufficient for light to moderate baggage, typically allowing each passenger one smaller carry-on bag in overhead compartments or under-seat storage areas. Larger suitcases or equipment cases may need to be stowed in a rear cargo area or in the aisle if the bus is fully occupied, though this can limit movement inside the cabin. For trips where passengers are bringing substantial luggage—such as airport transfers, band equipment, or athletic gear—it’s advisable to inform our team in advance so we can either allocate additional storage space or recommend a larger vehicle with dedicated external luggage bays. The primary design of these minibuses focuses on seating rather than cargo, so while they can accommodate the essentials for a day trip or overnight stay, groups with heavy or bulky luggage should plan accordingly. We’re happy to discuss your specific needs to ensure there’s room for everything you intend to bring.
