Passenger Buses We Specialize in Hauling
Passenger buses come in different models from popular manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz and Volvo. These buses also have different purposes.
It’s important to determine what kind of passenger bus you have.
Passenger buses include city transit buses, which offer low-floor designs and high capacity for city civilians. This includes shuttle buses, which are used for short-distance travel like airport pickups or hotel services. Coach buses are built for long-distance travel, whereas double-decker buses are used in busy cities or for sightseeing. There are also minibuses, which are smaller and usually for private groups.
With our commercial bus transport services, we can safely ship all types of passenger buses, whether it’s a private group minibus or a luxury motorcoach.
What Goes Into Shipping a Passenger Bus?
When shipping a passenger bus, you must factor in size and weight, among other factors. If they’re small enough, the passenger bus is simply driven onto a flatbed truck and securely fastened for a safe journey.
- Distance: The biggest cost factor is distance. The longer the journey, the greater the shipping costs for your bus.
- Fuel Costs: Gas prices are constantly changing. If gas prices are high, your passenger bus transport cost will be higher and vice versa.
- Toll Roads: Depending on the planned route, your passenger bus may have more or fewer tolls. The more tolls on the route, the higher the cost of the bus shipping.
- Passenger Bus Condition: If your bus doesn’t run, we may need special equipment (like cranes or additional crew) to load it. This can factor into your charter bus transport quote.
- Seasonal Demand: Shipping in peak seasons, like summer, can cost more due to high demand. On the other hand, shipping a passenger bus in winter might be more affordable.
What’s Used To Ship Passenger Buses?
At We Will Transport It, we have the correct equipment for the safe transport of passenger buses.
We use flatbed trailers, which are the most common for buses. For oversized vehicles, lowboy and step-deck trailers come in handy. We also use cranes and winches for buses that aren’t running. For shorter distances, we use multi-vehicle carriers to make the bus hauling process more efficient.
Passenger Bus Considerations
Some larger passenger buses may require special permits, specifically for interstate or international bus transport, which might increase final costs. It’s also recommended to include insurance to protect against potential damage during transportation.
With professional bus shipping services, you can ensure that your vehicle is compliant with all regulations and transported safely.

How do I ship my passenger buses to a different state?
To ship your passenger bus to another state, we will either use a flatbed, step-deck, or lowboy trailers, depending on the bus size and condition. Operational buses can be hauled on their own axles for cost efficiency. Every delivery is handled by licensed, insured, and DOT-certified drivers, ensuring a safe, compliant shipment.
What insurance coverage is included when shipping my bus?
Yes. All We Will Transport It drivers are DOT-certified, fully insured, and have no DUIs or total losses. Every passenger bus shipment includes at least $100,000 in cargo insurance for accident protection. Extra coverage can be added upon request.
Can I track my passenger bus during delivery?
Yes! We have a dedicated dispatch department that provides real-time updates and communication throughout your transport. Our live tracking and dispatch support ensures peace of mind from pickup to delivery.
Can someone ride along with the driver?
Unfortunately, no. Our insurance policies only cover the vehicle being shipped, not passengers. This ensures the driver’s safety and full insurance compliance throughout the trip.
What should I do before pickup?
Before pickup, please make sure your bus is roadworthy and ready to transport. The tires and bearings must be in good condition and lights and signals should be working properly. If your bus needs extra preparation or assistance, let your representative know in advance so we can coordinate additional accommodations.
What happens if items are left inside the bus?
We strongly recommend removing all personal belongings and unsecured items before transport as insurance policies do not cover personal articles or anything left inside the vehicle.
