No — Portstluciecharterbuscompany.com is a comparison and referral website. You use it to compare vehicles and pricing from a network of independently owned transportation companies serving Port St. Lucie, and the transportation itself is carried out by those independent companies once you book. Think of it as the fast lane between needing a bus and finding the right one: you share your trip details once, see what is available, and choose what fits your group.
When you search on your own, you call one company, get one price, and hope they have what you need on your date. With Portstluciecharterbuscompany.com, you fill out one form — or make one call to 772-279-6990 — and you see vehicles and rates from a whole network of providers serving Port St. Lucie in seconds. More options means more price points, and you find the right bus for your group without spending an afternoon on hold.
That is the time you get back.
An independently owned transportation company serving Port St. Lucie. Once you fill out the quote form, you head to a national booking platform where you choose the vehicle that suits the trip — the size, the amenities, the price. What you are choosing there is a vehicle and a price, not a provider from a list.
The transportation company confirmed to your booking is communicated to you after the reservation is made.
Booking a Charter Bus
Fill out the form on this page — or call 772-279-6990 — with your trip details. You are taken directly to a search results page on a national booking company's website. That booking company works with a network of independently owned operators serving Port St. Lucie and the surrounding Treasure Coast.
Right there on their website, you see available vehicles and trip-specific pricing, and you book the bus you want online in minutes. What you are choosing is a vehicle and a price — the booking platform handles the rest.
Your pickup city, where you are going, how many people are in the group, and roughly how many hours you need the bus. That gets you a quote. The more detail you add — your stops, your start and end times, any luggage or oversized gear, and the amenities the group needs — the more accurate the quote comes back and the better the options you will find.
More detail in means better results out.
Right away — there is no waiting on a callback. The moment you submit the form you go straight to the search results page on the booking company's website and see quotes immediately. No inbox to check, no waiting for someone to call you back.
If you would rather talk through the trip with someone, call 772-279-6990 and you get the same speed with a person on the line.
The earlier the better for a popular date — and if you need a specific vehicle or have a large group, earlier still. That said, because Portstluciecharterbuscompany.com puts your request in front of a whole network of providers serving Port St. Lucie rather than one operator with one yard, short-notice trips are often still workable. That is the real advantage of comparing a network instead of calling a single company and being told no.
Submit the request or call 772-279-6990 even if the date is close — it costs nothing to check, and the network may have exactly what you need.
All of those can be requested. Hourly or as-directed keeps the vehicle with your group for a set block of time and is great when the itinerary has flexibility. A one-way transfer moves the group from one place to another — say, from Port St. Lucie to Palm Beach International Airport — and that is all.
A round trip brings them back. A multi-stop itinerary runs a set route with several stops along the way, like a brewery loop through Fort Pierce and Stuart. A multi-day booking covers a trip that runs across more than one day, like a group charter to Orlando or Tampa.
Which format fits comes down to the trip itself. If the itinerary has multiple stops or runs overnight, lay the full route out with the request so it comes back priced correctly.
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. Those are the real planning ranges — but pricing is not one size fits all. The type of bus, the date, how long you need it, and how far you are going all move the number, so the range is a starting point rather than your price.
The fastest way to see what your specific trip costs is to fill out the form and get pricing for your actual route in seconds. Or call 772-279-6990 — going through the trip with someone can turn up better packages and pricing than you would find on your own.
It depends on the trip, and all three structures are used. A short run of a couple of hours — a game-day shuttle to Clover Park for a Mets spring training game, or a transfer from Port St. Lucie to Palm Beach International Airport — is usually priced hourly. A trip that covers real distance, roughly past the 100 to 200 mile mark or heading well out of the Treasure Coast area, 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, because the vehicle is booked for so much of the day. Submit the actual trip and the booking platform applies whichever structure fits.
Six things move a charter bus quote: the type and size of bus, how long it is 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. Daytime trips price lower than those same evenings.
Booking the size the group actually needs beats over-booking capacity. And grouping riders into one or two pickup points instead of spreading them across five cuts the hours on the clock — which matters in a spread-out city like Port St. Lucie, where pickups from the Tradition neighborhood and the Torino area can add real time to the start of a trip. On peak dates — Mets spring training weekends, prom season in April and May, and the winter wedding months of October through April — the whole local market moves early, so booking ahead on those dates is the single biggest lever you have.
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 is built for moving a large group over a distance in one vehicle, and a full-size coach seats roughly 40 to 56 people. Your group has the whole bus, the whole time.
Outside, a full-size charter bus is a tall, wide coach body with high-mounted windows running the full length of both sides and a row of luggage bay doors along the bottom skirt. The exterior is usually finished in white, silver, black, or a solid color — though some coaches are wrapped in an operator's own graphics, so the coach that shows up may not always look the same. Inside, you find forward-facing seats arranged in pairs on either side of a center aisle, upholstered in cloth or leather depending on the make and model.
Overhead parcel racks run the full length of the cabin. Toward the rear sits an onboard restroom. Real coaches you will see in the network include the MCI J4500, the Van Hool CX45, and the Prevost H3-45 — all full-size 45-foot coaches built to the same general layout, with differences in seat pitch, interior trim, and onboard equipment.
Some of the amenities available on charter buses include reclining cloth or leather seats, individual climate controls, onboard restrooms, overhead parcel racks, undercarriage baggage bays, WiFi, 110-volt power outlets and USB charging ports, a PA system, and TV monitors. Features may include any combination of those depending on the make, model, and how the coach is equipped — no two coaches are identical, and what a specific vehicle carries is confirmed during booking. If your group needs a particular amenity, note it with the trip details so the right vehicles come back in the results.
Generally 40 to 56 passengers, depending on the make and model, with 56 the most common configuration on a full-size coach. The MCI J4500 seats 56 as standard and can be built for up to 60. The Van Hool CX45 is the same — 56 standard, 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 is how it is configured — extra legroom reduces the row count, and a wheelchair position takes out additional seats.
Because Portstluciecharterbuscompany.com works with a network of providers, the exact coach on any given trip depends on what is available for your date. Submit the trip or call 772-279-6990 if the group needs a specific capacity, and that detail goes into the request.
A 56-passenger coach runs 14 rows, with two seats on each side of a center aisle — forward facing, paired, one aisle down the middle. The row count drops on coaches configured with extra legroom or a wheelchair position, since each takes space from the row count. Some coaches also tier the front rows slightly for sightlines.
Those are the figures for a standard full-size build.
A full-size charter bus is 45 feet long and 8.5 feet wide. To put that in terms most people can picture, it is roughly three cars parked end to end. That is the measurement that matters when you are working out whether a bus fits a loading area, a driveway, or a parking approach — and it is the standard full-size vehicle.
Shorter coaches exist, most commonly around 35 feet, for situations where the full 45-foot length creates a clearance or access problem.
A full-size charter bus stands about 11 to 12 feet tall depending on the model, and traffic engineers design overpasses and parking structures for 12 feet. A little taller than the first story of a house — that is the comparison that helps when you are checking whether a bus clears a venue's covered entrance or a parking garage approach. Use 12 feet as the working number for clearance questions.
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 by make, model, and how the coach is outfitted. The other thing worth setting honestly: onboard WiFi runs off a cellular connection and is built for light use across a full coach — phones, messaging, browsing — not for fifty or sixty people doing heavy work or streaming at once.
If your group needs WiFi, note it with the trip details so vehicles that carry it come back in the results.
Yes, an onboard restroom is standard on full-size charter buses. It sits toward the rear of the coach and is there so the group does not have to stop every hour — on a run from Port St. Lucie to Orlando or Tampa, that matters. On a longer trip the itinerary is still usually planned with real rest stops, because the onboard restroom is a backup rather than the plan.
If the onboard restroom matters for your trip, note it with the details so the right vehicle comes back.
Yes, charter buses are built with 110-volt AC power outlets, and coaches are commonly fitted with them at or near 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. What that means practically: a group can keep phones and laptops charged across a long run from Port St. Lucie to Jacksonville or Atlanta without hunting for a wall outlet at a rest stop.
If the group needs outlets, note it with the trip details.
Yes, in two places — overhead parcel racks inside the coach, and undercarriage baggage bays underneath it. 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 in the bays below plus one small carry-on above.
What changes it: a coach fitted with a wheelchair lift gives up some baggage bay space, and bulky gear — instruments, sports equipment, event supplies, golf bags heading to PGA Golf Club — takes the equivalent of several standard bags. If your group is traveling with oversized or unusual items, state that with the trip details so the right coach is matched to what you are actually bringing.
Charter Bus Service in Port St. Lucie, Florida
Groups of every kind travel through Port St. Lucie, and the network handles all of them. Airport transfers to Palm Beach International, Fort Lauderdale, or Orlando are among the most common requests. Corporate travel and employee shuttles move teams between offices, job sites, and off-site events across St. Lucie and Martin counties.
Weddings and private events use charter buses to shuttle guests between hotel blocks and venues. Concerts and sporting events — including Mets spring training at Clover Park — fill buses every season. School and church group trips, team travel, brewery and winery tours, prom and homecoming, and long-distance travel to Orlando, Miami, and beyond are all part of what the network covers.
The network serves Port St. Lucie and the surrounding Treasure Coast region, including Fort Pierce, Stuart, Jensen Beach, Palm City, Hobe Sound, Vero Beach, and Okeechobee. It also covers longer routes south to Palm Beach Gardens, West Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami, and north toward Daytona Beach and Jacksonville. Those are examples, not the complete coverage area.
If your pickup or destination is not listed here, enter the full route into the quote form or call 772-279-6990 to check availability.
New York Mets spring training runs February through March at Clover Park, and game-day shuttles book up fast — especially on weekend dates when the whole Treasure Coast is moving toward NW Peacock Blvd. Prom season for St. Lucie County high schools runs April and May, and every group in the county is looking for the same buses on the same Saturday nights. Graduation follows in May and June for St. Lucie County schools and Indian River State College. Wedding season peaks October through April, when Florida's cooler months make outdoor venues at spots like Harbour Ridge and Club Med Sandpiper Bay fully booked.
Sunfest in West Palm Beach in late April and early May also pulls Treasure Coast groups south. New Year's Eve is the single busiest night of the year across the region. On all of those dates, the whole local market moves early — book well ahead.
On short-notice dates, submit the request anyway, because the network covers more ground than any single operator.
Planning Your Port St. Lucie, Florida Charter Bus Trip
The network serves all of the airports that Port St. Lucie groups actually use. Treasure Coast International Airport (FPR) (1 Airport Road, Fort Pierce, FL 34946) is the closest at roughly 10 miles north, handling general aviation and charter flights. Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) (1000 James L. Turnage Blvd, West Palm Beach, FL 33406) is the primary commercial hub, about 50 miles south — approximately 50 to 60 minutes via I-95 or the Florida Turnpike.
Orlando International Airport (MCO) (One Jeff Fuqua Blvd, Orlando, FL 32827) is roughly 115 miles northwest, about 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours via the Turnpike. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) (100 Terminal Dr, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33315) sits about 85 miles south, approximately 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes. For any of those airports, the coach meets the group outside the terminal at the designated spot that airport sets aside for buses and larger vehicles, following that airport's own ground transportation guidelines.
The most in-demand venue in Port St. Lucie itself is Clover Park (525 NW Peacock Blvd, Port St. Lucie, FL 34986), the spring training home of the New York Mets and the regular season home of the St. Lucie Mets. Grapefruit League games run February through March, and parking along NW Peacock Blvd fills fast on game days — a charter bus drops the group and stages nearby rather than fighting for a spot. For groups heading south, Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium (4751 Main St, Jupiter, FL 33458) is about 30 miles away and hosts the Miami Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals in spring training.
Concert and event groups travel to iThink Financial Amphitheatre (601 Sansburys Way, West Palm Beach, FL 33411), roughly 50 miles south. Build extra time into any game-day or event-night itinerary — traffic patterns on I-95 and the Turnpike change significantly around major events at all of these venues.
The network serves convention centers and large event venues throughout the region. In Port St. Lucie, the Port St. Lucie Civic Center (9221 SE Event Center Place, Port St. Lucie, FL 34952) hosts trade shows, expos, and community events. The IRSC Havert L. Fenn Center (2400 SE Salerno Road, Stuart, FL 34997) in Stuart, about 15 miles south, handles regional home shows, expos, and large gatherings.
The Palm Beach County Convention Center (650 Okeechobee Blvd, West Palm Beach, FL 33401), roughly 50 miles south, is the primary large convention facility serving the Treasure Coast. Large venues have designated bus loading areas separate from the main entrance. If your group is running a repeat shuttle between a hotel and a convention center — say, multiple morning and afternoon runs between a Port St. Lucie hotel block and a West Palm Beach convention — lay the full schedule out with the request so it comes back timed and priced correctly.
Yes, any wedding venue in the area. Port St. Lucie and the surrounding Treasure Coast have a wide range of venues — from golf club properties like Wedgewood Weddings at Sandhill Crane Golf Club (9400 Perfect Dr, Port St. Lucie, FL 34986) and PGA Golf Club (1916 Perfect Dr, Port St. Lucie, FL 34986) in PSL proper, to waterfront and resort venues like Club Med Sandpiper Bay (3500 SE Morningside Blvd, Port St. Lucie, FL 34952) on the St. Lucie River, Harbour Ridge Yacht & Country Club (12500 Harbour Ridge Blvd, Palm City, FL 34990), and Hutchinson Island Marriott Beach Resort (555 NE Ocean Blvd, Stuart, FL 34996) on the Atlantic. The most common wedding setup is a shuttle loop between the hotel room block and the venue, running guests in both directions across the evening.
Give the exact venue address with the request and the right vehicle gets matched to the route.
The network serves schools and campuses throughout St. Lucie County. Public high schools in the St. Lucie County School District include Port St. Lucie High School (1201 SE Jaguar Lane, Port St. Lucie, FL 34952), Treasure Coast High School (1000 SW Darwin Blvd, Port St. Lucie, FL 34953), and Fort Pierce Central High School (4101 S 25th St, Fort Pierce, FL 34981). At the college level, Indian River State College (IRSC) has its Port St. Lucie campus at 500 NW California Blvd, Port St. Lucie, FL 34986, and its main campus at 3209 Virginia Ave, Fort Pierce, FL 34981.
Keiser University Port St. Lucie (9468 SW Discovery Way, Port St. Lucie, FL 34986) is another campus the network serves. Field trips and team travel typically pick up at the school or campus itself, and campuses have designated bus loading zones — include the exact headcount plus any chaperone or accessibility needs with the request.
The Treasure Coast has a solid circuit for a group that wants to make a day of it. Sailfish Brewing Company (114 N 2nd St, Fort Pierce, FL 34950) is about 10 miles north of PSL on the Indian River waterfront and is the flagship craft brewery in the region. Treasure Coast Brewing (402 N 2nd St, Fort Pierce, FL 34950) is a short walk away on the same Fort Pierce 2nd Street corridor, making a two-stop Fort Pierce loop easy.
For wine, Bent Creek Winery (3700 SW Leighton Farm Ave, Palm City, FL 34990) is about 15 miles south in Palm City. Groups heading to a casino typically go to Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood (1 Seminole Way, Hollywood, FL 33314), roughly 90 miles south — about 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes via I-95. For a multi-stop route, list each stop and how long the group plans to stay so the hours come back right in the quote.
Yes. The most popular long-distance run from Port St. Lucie is the roughly 115-mile trip northwest to Orlando — Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando, and the convention hotels along International Drive — about 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours via Florida's Turnpike. Miami is about 120 miles south, roughly 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours via I-95.
Tampa is approximately 170 miles west, about 2 hours 30 minutes via I-4 and I-75. Key West runs about 200 miles south, roughly 3 hours 30 minutes. Jacksonville is approximately 200 miles north on I-95, about 3 hours.
For longer hauls, Atlanta is roughly 650 miles north and about 9 hours. Long-distance trips are usually booked as a one-way transfer or a multi-day trip rather than by the hour. Overnight trips need the full itinerary — departure date, return date, stops, and overnight location — laid out with the request so it comes back priced correctly.
