Minibus Rentals Everett, Washington

The inside of a minibus looks like a smaller version of a full-size charter bus, with forward-facing seats arranged in rows on either side of a central aisle. Seats are typically upholstered in durable fabric or vinyl, often in dark blue, gray, or patterned colors, and may have armrests, headrests, and limited recline. Overhead storage racks run above the seats for small bags, while larger luggage can be stored in a rear compartment or under-seat area. The floor is covered with non-slip rubber or vinyl, and windows line both sides, sometimes with pull-down shades. The front of the cabin includes the driver’s area, separated by a partition or modesty panel, and may feature a PA system, video monitors, and lighting controls. Lighting is provided by LED strips or dome lights along the ceiling.

A minibus typically has between 15 and 35 seats, depending on the model and configuration. Smaller minibuses, like the Ford E-350 or Chevrolet Express, usually seat 15 to 25 passengers, while larger models, such as the Freightliner Sprinter or International TerraStar, can accommodate up to 35 people. The exact number of seats may vary based on the manufacturer, whether the bus has additional features like luggage racks or ADA-compliant wheelchair spaces, and if it’s been customized for a specific use. These seating capacities make minibuses ideal for medium-sized groups traveling together to events, airports, or between campuses and job sites.

A minibus rental in Everett typically includes amenities such as comfortable reclining seats with armrests and headrests, individual reading lights, and climate control with air conditioning and heating. Many minibuses also offer Wi-Fi connectivity, USB ports or power outlets at each seat for charging devices, and a sound system with Bluetooth or AUX input for playing music. Some models feature flat-screen monitors for video playback, PA systems for announcements, and tinted windows or window shades for privacy. Additional options may include overhead storage compartments, cup holders, and upgraded upholstery or flooring materials.

Yes, most modern minibuses come equipped with power outlets and USB ports for passenger convenience. Older models may not have them standard, but they can often be added as an aftermarket upgrade. If having access to power is important for your group—whether it’s for charging phones, running laptops, or plugging in other devices—be sure to confirm the availability and type of outlets when booking your minibus rental. At Everett Party Bus Company, we can provide minibuses with the specific amenities you need, including 110V outlets and USB charging ports at every row.

No, standard minibuses do not have bathrooms onboard. Restrooms are typically only found on full-size charter buses. However, some larger minibus models (around 35 passengers) may be available with a small restroom at the rear of the vehicle. If a bathroom is essential for your trip, please let your reservation agent know when booking so we can try to accommodate your request. Otherwise, plan to make regular rest stops during longer journeys.

Yes, minibuses have designated luggage space, but the amount and location can vary depending on the model. Most minibuses offer either overhead storage compartments inside the cabin—similar to those on an airplane—or a separate rear cargo area accessed through a door at the back of the vehicle. Some larger minibuses may also feature under-bus storage bays for additional capacity. If your group will be bringing large suitcases or equipment, let us know when booking so we can match you with a minibus that has adequate storage.

The cost of renting a minibus in Everett typically ranges from $1,100 to $3,000+ per day, depending on several factors including the size of the bus, length of the rental, time of year, and distance traveled. Prices are generally quoted either by the hour (with a 4- or 5-hour minimum), by the day, or by the mile for longer trips. Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, and optional amenities may not be included in the base rate. To get an accurate quote, it’s best to contact Everett Party Bus Company directly with details about your trip.

You should book your Everett minibus rental at least six to nine months in advance, especially if your trip falls during a busy travel season or coincides with a major local event. Spring and summer are particularly high-demand times due to weddings, graduations, and festival schedules, while large gatherings like Seahawks games or events at Angel of the Winds Arena can quickly sell out available vehicles. Last-minute reservations are sometimes possible, but you’ll have the best selection of bus sizes and amenities—and often better pricing—if you secure your rental early. Once you have your event date and an estimated headcount, contact Everett Party Bus Company to lock in a minibus for your group.

To book a minibus in Everett, start by gathering all the key details about your trip, including the date and time of departure, pickup and drop-off locations, number of passengers, and any special requests or required amenities.

We’ll ask you a few questions to match you with the best vehicle options and provide you with a personalized price estimate. Once you’re ready to reserve, you’ll sign an agreement and put down a deposit to secure your booking. The remaining balance is typically due before the date of service.

No, your quote does not include fees such as tolls and parking. While the base rate covers the cost of the minibus rental, driver, and standard amenities, additional expenses like bridge tolls, highway charges, and parking fees at your destination are billed separately. For example, if your trip requires crossing the Tacoma Narrows Bridge or using a tolled express lane, those costs will be added to your final invoice. Similarly, parking fees at venues such as Lumen Field or Climate Pledge Arena are not included in the initial quote. You are responsible for paying these fees either in advance or on the day of the event. Please discuss your itinerary with our reservations team so we can provide an accurate estimate of any extra charges you may incur.

Everett’s public transit options include Community Transit buses, Everett Transit city routes, Sound Transit regional express service, and the Sounder commuter rail connecting downtown Seattle to Snohomish County. While these systems offer affordable transportation across the region, they operate on fixed schedules and routes that may not align with your group’s specific itinerary. Transfers between services can add significant travel time, and carrying luggage or equipment is inconvenient on crowded trains or buses. In contrast, a private minibus rental provides door-to-door service tailored to your exact needs, with flexible departure times, custom pickup and drop-off locations, and no need to transfer or wait for the next scheduled run. You’ll travel together as a group, enjoy comfortable seating and onboard amenities, and save time compared to navigating multiple legs of public transit. For school trips, corporate outings, or special events, a minibus is the most convenient and efficient way to get around Everett and beyond.
