Keep your Newark wedding running on time with a shuttle bus rental. Don't worry about frantically taking calls from guests trying to find your venue and asking about where to park. Leave your day-of transportation up to us! Whether you’re having a massive wedding at Nanina’s in the Park or a quaint service at Chandelier, Shofur will have your wedding transportation handled. Reserving a wedding shuttle bus will take some stress off of the soon-to-be newlyweds, wedding planner, and guests by making sure everyone has a ride to the venue.

Commuting in the Newark area can be tough for employees, especially to offices in Jersey City and New York City at peak travel times. Dealing with traffic and bad drivers isn’t a great way to start a productive workday. It also isn’t a wonderful way to start a long day of business conference seminars and workshops. Shofur can provide employee shuttle services for daily Newark commuters and bus rentals for industry events. We’ll pair your business with a minibus shuttle for daily services or a fleet of full-sized buses at conference centers across the metro area.

Tired of waiting on your friends to make it to MetLife Stadium for a Giants game? Don’t sweat having your friends of fellow fan club members arriving late for the game. Instead of driving separately to Newark area sporting events, book a bus rental for your group. A gameday bus rental will keep your groups of fans together with the entire ride to the stadium. You won’t need to meticulously organize parking for multiple cars so you can tailgate together. With a private bus rental, you’ll only need to secure one parking space for an oversized vehicle and leave the rest up to your professional driver.

The answer is: it depends. When you call one of our 24/7 reservation specialists with your trip details, they will build a quote for you based on a few factors, including how far you'll be traveling, which bus you rent, how many hours or days you will need the rental, and where and when you will be picked up. Depending on your trip itinerary, your rental cost will be broken down by hour, day, or mile.
You can learn more on our charter bus pricing page, and your reservation specialist will be happy to break down pricing further when you call.
