No — Westjordancoachbuscompany.com is a comparison and referral website. In practical terms, that means you use it to compare vehicles and pricing from a network of independently owned bus companies serving West Jordan and the surrounding area, and the transportation itself is carried out by those independent operators.

When you search on your own, you call one company, get one price, and hope they have something available. With Westjordancoachbuscompany.com, you fill out one form or make one call to 385-541-3530 and you're looking at vehicles and pricing from a whole network of providers serving West Jordan — different bus types, different price points, all at once.

Your pickup city, where you're going, how many people are riding, and how many hours you need the bus.

The earlier the better, especially for a high-demand date or a specific vehicle — a larger group or a particular bus type is worth locking in well ahead. That said, because Westjordancoachbuscompany.com puts your request in front of a whole network of providers serving West Jordan rather than one operator with one yard, short-notice trips are often still workable. That's the real advantage of comparing a network instead of calling a single company and being told no.
Submit the request or call 385-541-3530 even on short notice — it's always worth checking what's available!
All of those can be requested! Here's what each one actually means: hourly or as-directed keeps the vehicle with your group for a block of time and moves on your schedule; a one-way transfer moves your group from one place to another; a round trip brings them back; a multi-stop itinerary runs a set route with several stops along the way; and a multi-day booking covers a trip that runs across more than one day. Which format fits comes down to the trip itself.
For a multi-stop or overnight itinerary, lay out the full route and timing with your request — that's what gets it priced correctly the first time.
Charter bus pricing
A charter bus costs $205–$385+ per hour on weekdays, $225–$410+ per hour on weekends, and $1,650–$2,950+ per day. Pricing isn't one-size-fits-all — different packages and a number of factors move a quote, so those ranges are a starting point rather than your price. The fastest way to see numbers for your actual trip is to fill out the form and see pricing in seconds on the booking platform.
Or call 385-541-3530 — going through the trip with someone can turn up better pricing and packages than you'd find on your own!
It depends on the trip, and all three are used. A short trip of a couple of hours is usually priced hourly. A trip that runs long distance — roughly past the 100 to 200 mile mark, or heading well out of the Salt Lake Valley — may carry a per-mile charge instead.
And a long day, generally around eight hours or more, often comes back as a day rate rather than stacked hours, simply because the vehicle is booked for so much of the day. Submitting the actual trip is what determines which structure applies — the booking platform prices it against your specific route and timing.
Six things move the price: the type and size of bus, how long it's booked for, the date and day of the week, the distance and route, the number of stops, and how busy that date is locally. Sunday through Thursday prices lower than Friday and Saturday, and daytime prices lower than those same evenings. Booking the size the group actually needs beats over-booking capacity — a 56-passenger coach for 20 people costs more than the right-sized minibus.
And grouping riders into one or two pickup points instead of five cuts the hours on the clock. In West Jordan, Pioneer Day weekend (July 24) and prom season in April and May are among the highest-demand stretches of the year — booking those dates early is one of the most direct ways to protect your rate.
About charter buses
A charter bus is a full-size passenger coach that a group hires for its own trip — its own route, its own schedule, its own stops — rather than riding a fixed public route. It's built for moving a large group over a distance in one vehicle, and a full-size coach seats roughly 40 to 56 people. The group has the whole vehicle to themselves for the duration of the trip.
Outside, it's a full-size coach body — high windows running the full length of the vehicle, luggage bay doors along the lower panels, and a smooth aerodynamic profile. The exterior is usually finished in white, silver, black or a solid color, and some coaches are wrapped in an operator's own graphics, so the coach that shows up won't always look the same. Inside, you'll find forward-facing seats arranged in pairs on either side of a center aisle — cloth or leather depending on the make and model.
Overhead racks run the length of the coach for carry-on bags, and a restroom sits toward the rear. Popular models like the MCI J4500 and the Van Hool CX45 are the coaches most people picture when they think full-size charter bus — tall, wide, and built for long runs.
Some of the amenities available on charter buses include reclining cloth or leather seats, individual climate controls, onboard restrooms, overhead and undercarriage storage, WiFi, power outlets, a PA system, and TV monitors. Features vary by make, model, and operator — so "may include" is the honest framing, and the exact amenities on a given vehicle are confirmed during booking. If there's something the group needs — WiFi for a working trip up to Park City, or extra storage for ski gear — note it with your trip details, since that narrows which vehicles come back!
Generally 40 to 56 passengers, depending on the make and model, with 56 the most common build on a full-size coach. The MCI J4500 seats 56 as standard and is built for up to 60; the Van Hool CX45 is the same — 56 standard and up to 60; the Prevost H3-45 also seats 56. Shorter 35-foot coaches seat closer to 44.
What changes the count on the same coach: extra legroom takes seats out, and a wheelchair position does the same. Because Westjordancoachbuscompany.com works with a network of providers, the exact coach on any given trip depends on what's available for your date — submit the trip or call 385-541-3530 if the group needs a specific capacity!
A 56-passenger coach runs 14 rows, with two seats on each side of a center aisle — forward-facing, paired seating, one aisle down the middle. The row count drops on coaches built with extra legroom or a wheelchair position, and some coaches tier the front rows slightly for a better view down the road. Fourteen rows, four seats across, and a center aisle is the standard layout you're working with on a full-size coach.
A full-size charter bus is 45 feet long and 8.5 feet wide. To put that in perspective — roughly three cars parked end to end. That's the number to use if you're working out whether one fits somewhere, and it's why drop-off and staging logistics matter at tighter venues.
Shorter coaches exist, most commonly around 35 feet, and the 45-foot coach is the standard full-size vehicle you'll see on most trips out of West Jordan.
A full-size charter bus stands about 11 to 12 feet tall depending on the model, and traffic engineers design for 12 feet. A real-world comparison: a little taller than a single story of a house. That's the number to check against a parking garage clearance or a venue entrance before the trip.
Most open-air drop-off zones in the Salt Lake Valley are designed with coaches in mind, but covered structures are worth confirming ahead of time.
WiFi is one of the amenities available on charter buses, and many coaches on the road are equipped with it. One thing worth knowing: onboard WiFi is an equipment option a coach is built with rather than something every coach carries, so whether a given vehicle has it varies. And the honest expectation on performance — onboard WiFi runs off a cellular connection and is built for light use across a full coach, meaning phones, messaging, and browsing work well, but it's not built for 50 or 60 people doing heavy work at once.
If the group needs WiFi — say, for a corporate shuttle between West Jordan and a Salt Lake City conference — note it with your trip details, since that narrows which vehicles come back!
Yes — an onboard restroom is standard on full-size charter buses, located toward the rear of the coach. It's there so a group doesn't have to stop, and on a longer run — say, a charter out to Moab or down to St. George — the trip is still usually planned with real rest stops along the way. Note it with your trip details if it matters to the group, and the booking platform will match vehicles accordingly.
Yes — charter buses are built with 110-volt AC power outlets, and coaches are commonly fitted with them at every seat, some with a USB port built into the same outlet. This is an equipment option rather than something every coach carries, so it varies by vehicle. In practice, a group can keep phones and laptops charged across a long run — which matters on a corporate shuttle into Salt Lake City or a multi-hour trip down I-15 to Provo.
Note it with your trip details if the group needs it, and that narrows which vehicles come back!
Yes — in two places. Overhead parcel racks run the length of the interior, and undercarriage baggage bays sit underneath the coach along the lower panels. A full-size coach carries roughly 460 cubic feet of underfloor baggage space and around 100 cubic feet in the overhead racks.
Across a full 56-passenger load, that works out to roughly 8 cubic feet per person underneath and under 2 cubic feet overhead — in practice, about one checked-size bag each below plus one small carry-on above. What changes it: a coach fitted with a wheelchair lift gives up some baggage bay, and bulky gear like ski equipment heading up to Park City, instruments, sports gear, or event supplies takes the space of several bags. State your luggage situation and any oversized items with the trip details so the right coach gets matched to the group — a ski trip for 40 people out of West Jordan and a corporate shuttle for 40 people with laptops have very different storage needs, and the booking platform can account for both!
