18 Passenger Minibus

Our 18-passenger minibuses come in a range of colors to suit any occasion or personal preference, including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and even yellow. If you’re looking to make a statement or need something specific for branding purposes, we also offer custom wraps so you can display a company logo, wedding monogram, or team colors across the entire vehicle. Black and white are the most popular choices due to their versatility and classic appearance—ideal for everything from corporate events to formal weddings—while brighter options like red or blue are great for school trips, sports teams, or anyone who wants to stand out.

No matter which color you choose, you’ll get the same high level of finish and attention to detail that makes these minibuses look professional and polished.

Standard amenities on our 18-passenger minibuses include forward-facing seats with cloth or vinyl upholstery, individual reading lights, USB charging ports, overhead parcel racks, flat-screen monitors, Bluetooth-capable sound system, WiFi hotspot, 110V power outlets, hardwood-look vinyl flooring, full-length HVAC ducting, tinted windows, and either a rear luggage compartment or additional bench seating depending on the floor plan. The audio/video setup allows you to play content from HDMI or USB sources, and the PA system makes it easy to communicate with the entire cabin. Additional features may include seatback cup holders, fold-down tray tables, and a central screen at the front of the bus.

These amenities are designed to keep passengers comfortable, connected, and entertained on trips of any length.

The cost to rent an 18-passenger minibus in Mount Laurel typically ranges from $1,520 to $3,255 per day, $150 to $430+ per hour, or $4.00 to $7.95 per mile, depending on the exact model, length of trip, time of year, and specific itinerary. Your quote will include the base rate plus standard gratuity for the driver, but does not cover additional expenses such as parking fees at venues (which you’ll need to arrange separately), tolls incurred during the trip, or hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight journeys. Because pricing is highly dependent on real-time availability and exact trip details, we strongly recommend calling us for a custom quote tailored to your specific needs.

We pride ourselves on offering some of the most competitive and transparent pricing in the industry. If you have a specific budget in mind, let us know—we’ll do our best to accommodate it and suggest the best options available.

The 18-passenger minibus occupies a sweet spot in our fleet between smaller sprinter vans and larger 25– 35 passenger minibuses, offering significantly more seating and storage than a van while remaining much easier to maneuver and less expensive to operate than a full-size bus. Compared to a 15-passenger van, the 18-passenger minibus provides a true center aisle for easy boarding, overhead storage for bags, and the ability to stand upright inside the cabin—features you won’t find in most vans. Stepping up to a 25- or 30-passenger minibus gets you additional rows of seating and sometimes a second door or expanded luggage area, but at the cost of a larger footprint and higher rental price.

If you don’t need the extra seats, the 18-passenger model is more economical and easier to park, making it ideal for city trips, short shuttles, or any event where simplicity and value are priorities. This size is perfect for groups that are too large for a single van but don’t require a mid- or full-size coach, such as wedding parties, corporate teams, or youth organizations traveling within the region.

We recommend booking your 18-passenger minibus at least three to six months in advance, especially if your trip falls during peak seasons such as spring wedding months, summer concert and festival season, or fall sports and school event calendars when demand for midsize group transportation is highest. In Mount Laurel and the greater South Jersey region, availability can tighten quickly around major local events like graduations, corporate conferences, or overlapping holiday weekends, making it crucial to reserve early to secure your preferred vehicle and lock in the best pricing. Last-minute bookings are possible if we have open inventory, but waiting until the final weeks may limit your choice of amenities or color options and could result in higher costs due to limited supply.

If your schedule is set and you know you’ll need group transportation, securing your reservation several months ahead will give you the widest selection and the most peace of mind.

An 18-passenger minibus typically accommodates one standard carry-on bag or backpack per person in the overhead parcel racks, with additional space at the rear of the cabin or in a dedicated luggage compartment for larger items such as duffel bags, small suitcases, or equipment cases. If your group is traveling with full-size checked luggage, the total capacity is usually around 8–10 roller bags in the rear storage area, while the rest of the passengers will need to keep smaller personal items above their seats or underfoot. For trips requiring extra cargo room—such as airport transfers with multiple suitcases, band or sports equipment, or display materials for a trade show—we recommend either packing efficiently with soft-sided bags that can be compressed, or stepping up to a larger minibus model with expanded baggage storage.

Strollers, coolers, and folding chairs can fit if loaded thoughtfully, but space is limited compared to a full-size coach with exterior bays. Let us know your luggage requirements in advance so we can match you with a vehicle that will comfortably fit both your passengers and their belongings.
