35 Passenger Minibus

Our 35-passenger minibuses are available in a wide range of colors including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, yellow, and even custom wraps for special events or branding purposes. The most popular choices are classic black and white because they fit any occasion—from formal weddings to corporate shuttles—but we can also provide striking options like deep navy or bright red if you want something that stands out. Silver and grey offer a modern, understated look that works well for executive transportation, while blue and red are great for school trips or team events. If you need a specific color to match a wedding party, company branding, or simply prefer something unique, let us know. We can accommodate special requests and even arrange for custom wraps if you want to display a logo or message on the side of the bus.

Standard amenities on our 35-passenger minibuses include cushioned reclining seats with cloth or leatherette upholstery, individual reading lights, USB charging ports, 110V power outlets, overhead parcel racks, and a full climate-control system with roof-mounted A/C. Entertainment features typically include a PA system, multiple flat-screen monitors, DVD player, and Bluetooth-capable audio head unit. WiFi hotspots and seat-back tray tables are available on select models. Additional comforts include tinted windows for privacy, non-slip flooring, and either rear luggage partition or exterior baggage compartments for storing large items. These minibuses are built to deliver a comfortable ride whether you’re heading across town or out of state.

Renting a 35-passenger minibus in Moorhead typically costs between $150 and $450+ per hour, $1,610 to $3,465 per day, or $4.00 to $9.95 per mile, depending on several key factors. The final price is influenced by the length of the trip, the exact route, how many days you’ll need the bus, and what time of year you’re traveling. Peak seasons like spring and summer—when there are more weddings, graduations, and sports events—tend to have higher rates due to increased demand. Origin and destination cities also play a role; longer trips that require the bus to travel empty (deadhead) to pick up your group will cost more. Additional expenses not included in the base rate are parking fees at venues, tolls along the route, and hotel accommodations for the driver if your trip requires an overnight stay. Gratuity for the driver is included in your quote, but you’ll be responsible for any incidental costs during the trip. Because pricing can vary significantly based on availability and specific trip details, the best way to get an accurate estimate is to call us with your itinerary. We’ll provide a real-time quote tailored to your exact needs.

The 35-passenger minibus strikes a perfect balance between the smaller 18– 28 passenger minibuses and the larger 47–56 passenger full-size charter buses, offering substantial seating and storage capacity while remaining more affordable and easier to maneuver than a full-size coach. Compared to 18–28 passenger models, the 35-passenger version provides significantly more luggage space—often including rear or underfloor compartments—making it suitable for longer trips where passengers have checked bags or bulky equipment. It also features upgraded amenities such as multiple video monitors, enhanced sound systems, and additional USB/power outlets. While it doesn’t have the full underfloor baggage bays or restroom of a 56-passenger coach, it offers a similar rider experience at a lower price point and with greater flexibility for mid-size groups. This makes it an ideal choice for users who need more than a basic shuttle but don’t require the capacity or expense of the largest buses in the fleet.

You should book your 35-passenger minibus at least three to six months in advance to guarantee the best selection and pricing, especially if your trip falls during peak seasons like spring wedding months, summer festival schedules, or fall college homecomings. In Moorhead, demand for midsize buses spikes around major local events such as Minnesota State University graduations, Fargo Marathon weekend, and regional sports tournaments, making last-minute availability limited and often more expensive. Booking early not only secures the exact vehicle and amenities package you want but also locks in rates before seasonal increases. If your event is happening between May and October—or coincides with large gatherings at venues like Bluestem Amphitheater or downtown Fargo—it’s critical to reserve several months ahead to avoid sold-out dates. Charter Bus Company Moorhead can accommodate shorter notice bookings if a bus is available, but advance reservations provide the most options and peace of mind.

A 35-passenger minibus typically accommodates one large suitcase per person in the rear luggage compartment or underfloor storage bay, plus a small carry-on bag or backpack in the overhead racks above the seats. This is roughly equivalent to the luggage allowance on a domestic airline, making it suitable for airport transfers, overnight trips, or any event where passengers need to bring extra gear. If your group is traveling with additional equipment—such as musical instruments, sports gear, or display materials for a trade show—please let us know in advance so we can arrange a vehicle with maximum storage capacity or suggest alternatives like a trailer hitch. For day trips and local shuttles where full-size suitcases aren’t required, the standard luggage space will be more than sufficient for everyone’s needs.
