Shuttle Bus Rentals in Frederick, Maryland

Shuttle bus rental prices in Frederick typically range from $197–$519 per hour, $2,000–$4,000 per day, or $5,000–$8,000+ per week depending on vehicle size, trip length, and exact itinerary. You’ll pay either an hourly rate (for local trips) or a flat daily/multi-day rate (for longer-distance or multi-day charters), plus additional expenses like tolls, driver hotel/lodging, parking fees, and an optional—but strongly recommended—15–20% driver gratuity.

Here are four real-world examples of recent Frederick shuttle bus rental quotes to help you understand how pricing works:

• Example 1: Wedding Guest Transportation
  A bride is hosting her wedding at Ceresville Mansion but most guests are staying at hotels near Westview Promenade. She books a 25-passenger minibus to run continuous loops from 3–11 p.m. Total charter time: 8 hours. Her quoted price is $2,760 ($345/hour × 8 hours), not including a 15% driver tip she adds afterward.
• Example 2: Corporate Shuttle to Washington, D.C.
  A biotech firm in the Riverside Research Park needs to send 18 employees to a two-day conference at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. They book a 20-passenger minibus for a 48-hour out-of-town charter. The quote comes to $4,200, with the company responsible for providing one hotel room for the driver. They budget an extra $500 for tolls and gratuity.
• Example 3: School Field Trip to Baltimore
  An elementary school in Middletown arranges a field trip to the National Aquarium. They require a 56-seat coach to accommodate students and chaperones. The itinerary runs from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. (10 hours total). The final invoice is $4,000 at a $400/hour rate, with additional funds allocated for I-95 tolls.
• Example 4: Athletic Team Travel
  A Hood College lacrosse team books a season-long contract for away games across the Mid-Atlantic region. They secure a 50-passenger bus at $3,800 per day for each road trip. Multi-day packages are negotiated at a discounted weekly rate of $7,200, excluding hotel and meal per diems for the driver.

Several variables determine the cost of your shuttle bus rental in Frederick: the size and seating capacity of the vehicle, the total mileage and duration of your trip, the number of days you need the bus, the time of year (peak seasons like spring wedding and festival season can increase demand), and any special amenities requested. Local events such as Frederick Running Festival, In The Streets, Great Frederick Fair, and major sporting events can also impact availability and pricing due to higher demand.
