Why a Charter Bus is the Optimal Choice in an Emergency

In any emergency, there are countless details that need to be addressed, and evacuation or movement of people is often a crucial one. There's no better way to handle ground transportation in a crisis than with charter buses:

• You can move a lot of people with a few vehicles—The largest charter buses hold up to 57 passengers comfortably, with room for personal items. The more people evacuate on charter buses, the less potential for traffic congestion, and the faster everyone can get to a safe place. In addition, because of our vast network of charter bus service providers, we can usually mobilize a large number of coaches in a short period of time. We can also work with vendors to provide ADA-accessible buses.
• You'll have flexibility with respect to where people get picked up—With charter buses, you can designate a number of convenient locations where people can be picked up and transported to safety. You can avoid the bottlenecks that result when people come to a single location.
• Charter buses offer unmatched safety and security—You'll have professional drivers at the wheel. Your driver will have the resources to identify potential roadblocks or traffic problems and find alternate routes to get everyone to safety.
• Charter buses are one of the most reliable forms of travel—Delays and cancellations are virtually non-existent with a charter bus.
• Charter buses are affordable—Charter buses are consistently among the most cost-effective ways to transport groups of individuals anywhere.
• Charter buses can reach people with limited mobility—Though many people can and will take themselves out of danger, others may not have the ability to do so, including seniors, nursing home and assisted living residents, and children (at school or in daycare).
