Charter Bus Services We Offer in Bakersfield
Busrentalcompanybakersfield.com lets you find and book group transportation for virtually any occasion in Bakersfield and throughout Kern County. From airport shuttles and wedding transportation to corporate events, concerts, prom, and school field trips... whatever brings your group together, you can rent a bus for it through the network!

Bakersfield Airport Transfer Shuttle Bus Services
With Busrentalcompanybakersfield.com, securing a Bakersfield airport shuttle has never been simpler. Whether your group is flying in or out of Meadows Field Airport (BFL) (3701 Wings Way, Bakersfield, CA 93308) or connecting through a larger hub like Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), a private bus rental keeps everyone together from curb to gate without the rideshare juggling act.
At BFL, Meadows Field Airport's curbside loading is right in front of the terminal, and unattended vehicles aren't allowed there, so the bus pulls up, loads the whole group and rolls out with no parking hunt. Heading to LAX instead? LAX's commercial vehicle rules let buses load only at their assigned zones and wait at the curb no longer than 45 seconds, with longer waits in the Commercial Holding lot (up to 90 minutes), so gather everyone with bags in hand before calling for pickup.
A full-size charter bus with WiFi, power outlets, and reclining seats makes the drive down SR-99 and I-5 a whole lot more comfortable than a convoy of personal vehicles. Fill out one quick form to compare Bakersfield airport shuttle options from a network of local providers, or call 661-596-1160 to build a custom transfer package around your flight schedule!

Bakersfield Concert & Music Festival Bus Rentals
Rent a bus through Busrentalcompanybakersfield.com and nobody in your group has to be the designated driver, hunt for parking, or figure out rides home after the show. Bakersfield's live music scene is deeply rooted in country music history, and venues like Dignity Health Arena (1001 Truxtun Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301), the former Mechanics Bank Arena, draw major touring acts.
Dignity Health Arena's event parking is off N Street between Truxtun Avenue and California Avenue, with rates that vary by event (which aren't included in your free price quote), so one bus drop-off beats a string of cars all paying to park. On Stockdale Highway, Dignity Health Amphitheatre (11200 Stockdale Hwy, Bakersfield) has only limited event parking at the Park at River Walk, for $20 (not included in your free price quote), and a busload of fans skips that line entirely. A concert party bus rental in Bakersfield solves all of it... one booking, one pickup, one drop-off, and the pregame energy starts the moment everyone boards.
Party buses with a built-in bar, LED lighting, and Bluetooth sound systems are available through the network, so the celebration doesn't have to wait until the first song. Find and rent your concert bus from a network of Bakersfield bus companies in under 30 seconds, no account needed!

Corporate Event Bus Rentals in Bakersfield
Need to move your team across Bakersfield without the chaos of coordinating a caravan of rental cars? Busrentalcompanybakersfield.com makes it easy to compare corporate charter bus rentals in Bakersfield from a network of independent transportation companies, so you can find the right vehicle for your headcount and your schedule without calling company after company.
Whether you're shuttling executives to a conference at the Bakersfield Marriott at the Convention Center (801 Truxtun Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301), moving a sales team between client sites across Kern County, or organizing group transportation for a corporate retreat up in the Tehachapi Mountains, a private charter bus keeps your team together and productive. The Marriott's ten meeting rooms connect by indoor walkway to the Dignity Health Convention Center and its 13 breakout rooms, so one hotel drop-off puts attendees steps from every session. Buses with WiFi, power outlets, and reclining seats are available through the network, so your team can keep working on the road.

Employee Shuttle Services in Bakersfield
You don't have to let your team battle rush-hour traffic every single morning. INRIX's 2025 Global Traffic Scorecard found congestion cost the average American 49 hours in 2025, six more than the year before. A recurring employee shuttle bus in Bakersfield is one of the most practical perks you can offer your workforce, and Busrentalcompanybakersfield.com makes it easy to compare vehicles, packages, and prices from a large network of local bus companies all in one place.
Whether you need a daily shuttle looping between a remote employee parking lot and your main facility off Ming Avenue, or a recurring commuter run picking up workers from outlying communities like Delano, Shafter, or McFarland, a private employee shuttle keeps your team together and your parking situation under control. As CommuteKERN points out, employers may offer federal qualified commuter benefits (26 USC 132(f)) for vanpools, transit and parking cash-out. Buses with WiFi and comfortable seating make even a long commute feel manageable.
Need something nimble for a smaller team? A minibus or sprinter van might be the perfect fit. Call 661-596-1160 to build a custom recurring shuttle package today!

Government & Military Transportation Service in Bakersfield
Keep government teams, contractors, and military personnel moving throughout Kern County with group transportation from a network of independent bus companies. Busrentalcompanybakersfield.com makes it easy to compare government and military charter bus rentals in Bakersfield, whether you need a one-time transfer or an ongoing shuttle contract.
Naval Air Station Lemoore is about 105 miles from Bakersfield, and its Pass & ID office (Building 716, just left of the main gate at Post 1) is open Monday through Friday from 0630 to 1600, with the last pass issued at 1530, so time a bus arrival for a base event inside those hours. For special events like changes of command, the sponsor emails the NAS Lemoore Access Team at NASL_PASS_ID@US.NAVY.MIL with the sponsor name, event date, time and location, and Pass & ID replies within 24 business hours, so one busload on one guest list is simpler to clear than a stream of private cars. Closer to home, county agencies, municipal departments, and emergency management teams throughout Bakersfield and the surrounding unincorporated Kern County communities can use a private charter bus for everything from disaster preparedness drills to large-scale public events.
Transportation options for government and military groups are available through the network, so just mention your requirements when you call 661-596-1160 or fill out one quick form to get started!

Bakersfield Long-Distance Transportation Services
Use Busrentalcompanybakersfield.com to rent a bus for the long haul for your Bakersfield group. Whether you're planning a day trip down to Los Angeles, a weekend run out to Las Vegas, or a multi-day excursion to San Francisco, a full-size 56-passenger charter bus with reclining seats, WiFi, power outlets, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage luggage bays makes the miles go by in comfort.
Bakersfield is a natural departure point for groups heading anywhere in California or beyond. Driving to LA takes about two hours down I-5 through the Tejon Pass, so plan your timing around Grapevine congestion. Caltrans' Grapevine closures for snow and ice shut I-5 an average of three to five times between October and April, typically for four to six hours, so a winter trip with one shared bus keeps the whole group riding out any delay together instead of scattered across separate cars.
Las Vegas is about 320 minutes away without traffic, via SR-58 and I-15. From Bakersfield, a long-distance charter bus is often the smartest, most cost-effective way to move a large group. Rent your long-distance bus in one place, or call 661-596-1160 to put together a custom package!

Wine tasting along the Bakersfield Kern County Wine Trail, which runs from tasting rooms in Bakersfield up to the vineyards around Tehachapi? With one bus, the whole tasting group rides up the mountain together and nobody has to stay sober to drive back down. Whatever the occasion, a private bus rental in Bakersfield keeps your whole group together and eliminates the parking headache entirely.

A private charter bus keeps the team together, gives coaches a PA system for pregame preparation, and leaves room in undercarriage bays for equipment bags, gear, and coolers.
Bakersfield Condors fans headed to Dignity Health Arena can skip the parking scramble and ride together in a minibus or charter bus. The team sells group tickets with perks for groups of 20 and 50 or more (661-324-PUCK), and groups of 20 or more even get their name on the video board, which makes filling one bus a no-brainer. Fans following CSUB and Bakersfield College can ride together too, and CSUB's Lot I next to the Icardo Center is free for Roadrunner events from one hour before the event to its close.
A private bus drops your group at the door so nobody has to hunt for parking and you can focus on the game. Fill out one quick form or call 661-596-1160 to compare sports team bus options in Bakersfield!

Bakersfield is about 110 miles from downtown Los Angeles, or about 135 minutes without traffic via I-5 through the Tejon Pass. A full-size charter bus handles that route comfortably and regularly. The key variable is the Grapevine, a steep 6% grade, where Caltrans says full closures for snow and ice happen three to five times between October and April on average.
Plan departures for off-peak hours when possible, and build in a buffer. Coordinating departure timing with your driver in advance is strongly recommended.
A few spots are worth planning around. Until Caltrans builds the Centennial Corridor SR-99 to SR-58 connector (construction is scheduled from Summer 2027 to Spring 2030), there is no direct freeway ramp from southbound SR-99 to westbound SR-58, so that move runs through local streets. East of town, Caltrans' SR-58 Tehachapi grade slows all eastbound traffic as truck speeds often drop 30 mph or more below the limit.
For event-day travel, Dignity Health Arena's event parking sits off N Street between Truxtun Avenue and California Avenue, so a bus drop-off spares your group from circling for a lot.
Yes. Meadows Field Airport (BFL) offers curbside loading and unloading in front of the terminal, so charter buses and minibuses can drop your group right at the door. Unattended vehicles are not allowed in front of the terminal, so coordinating a pickup spot and time with your driver in advance is strongly recommended.
Meadows Field Airport advises arriving 2 hours before departure if passengers need a boarding pass or checked bags, and it's open daily from 3:00 AM to 1:30 AM, which helps when timing an early-morning bus pickup.
Bakersfield's busiest charter bus periods align with major local events and the academic calendar. The Kern County Fair, held each fall, brings heavy demand for group transportation. Prom season in the spring fills up party buses and minibuses fast across Kern County high schools.
Summer months see high demand for long-distance runs to LA, Las Vegas, and the coast. For the best vehicle selection and pricing, book at least 2–3 months in advance for any of these peak periods, and three to four months out for prom. Outside of peak season, 3–4 weeks of lead time is generally workable, but earlier is always better.
Absolutely. The Bakersfield-to-Las Vegas run is one of the most popular long-distance routes in the network. The drive runs via SR-58 East and I-15 North, and takes longer when traffic builds.
A full-size 56-passenger charter bus with reclining seats, WiFi, power outlets, and an onboard restroom makes that stretch genuinely comfortable. For multi-day Vegas trips, mention your full itinerary when you request your quote. Call 661-596-1160 or fill out one quick form to compare options for a Bakersfield-to-Las Vegas charter bus!
Yes. ADA-accessible vehicles (including buses with wheelchair lifts, widened aisles, and mobility device storage) are available through the network. If your group includes passengers with mobility needs or disabilities, simply mention it when you fill out your online quote request or when you call 661-596-1160.
A live agent will work to match your group with a vehicle that has the right accommodations. ADA-accessible bus rentals are available through many providers in the network, just ask!
For most standard trips in Bakersfield, booking 4–6 weeks in advance is a solid starting point, but the earlier, the better. For high-demand dates like prom, the Kern County Fair each fall, major arena concerts at Dignity Health Arena, and holiday weekends, we strongly recommend booking 3–6 months out. Waiting until the last minute on peak dates almost always means higher prices, fewer vehicle options, or both.
Lock in your date early for the best chance at better pricing and a wider selection. Call 661-596-1160 right now to check availability for your date!
