Why Choose Reno Coach Bus Service for Emergency Transportation?

When you call Reno Coach Bus Service, you get a company that answers the phone, understands the stakes, and does whatever it takes to get the job done. We’ve moved people out of wildfire zones with flames on both sides of the road, run evacuation shuttles through smoke and ashfall, and staged vehicles overnight so they’d be ready at first light. Our fleet includes everything from 18-passenger minibuses to 56-seat motorcoaches, so we can handle groups of any size—including school evacuations, hospital transfers, and assisted living relocations. Need to move 1,000 people out of South Lake Tahoe? We’ll send 20 buses and run relay trips until everyone’s clear. Need a staging area at the Grand Sierra Resort or the Reno-Sparks Convention Center? We know the layouts and can pre-position vehicles for rapid loading. This is critical infrastructure, and we treat it that way.

Emergency Evacuation Bus Rentals in Reno

When wildfires, floods, or other disasters strike, you need a plan to get people out quickly—and that means having buses ready to move. Reno Coach Bus Service provides emergency evacuation transportation for cities, counties, schools, businesses, and HOAs across the Reno-Tahoe region. We’ve worked with local agencies to run contraflow operations on Highway 50 and I-580, set up pickup points at Bartley Ranch Regional Park and Meadowood Mall, and moved entire neighborhoods to temporary shelters in Fallon and Fernley. Our larger buses can carry up to 56 passengers per trip, while smaller minibuses are ideal for navigating tight streets in areas like Midtown and the Old Southwest. Once the immediate danger has passed, we can also provide return transportation or run shuttles into burn zones for damage assessment teams. This is turnkey evacuation support from a company that’s done it before.

Disaster Relief & Recovery Transportation

The work doesn’t end when the flames go out or the floodwaters recede. In the aftermath of a disaster, you still need to move people—and often there are no good options left. Reno Coach Bus Service supplies buses for every phase of the recovery process, including bringing evacuees back home, transporting volunteers from organizations like Team Rubicon and Samaritan’s Purse, and running daily shuttles to FEMA Disaster Recovery Centers at locations like the Washoe County Complex on Ninth Street. If hotels are sold out due to an influx of workers, we can run commuter routes from affordable lodging in outlying areas like North Valleys and Stead. We’ve even provided mobile command centers and rest areas for utility crews working 16-hour shifts to restore power and water. Whatever it takes to get your community back on its feet, we’ll make it happen.

Non-emergency Medical Transportation in Reno

Hospitals and healthcare facilities face unique challenges during a disaster. When roads are closed and ambulances are scarce, how do you evacuate patients who can’t walk—or bring in doctors and nurses from outside the area? The answer is a charter bus from Reno Coach Bus Service. We offer non-emergency medical transportation for hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, and dialysis centers across Northern Nevada. Our largest coaches have room for up to five stretchers or multiple wheelchairs, with reclining seats and onboard restrooms for patient comfort. During the Caldor Fire, we helped transfer high-risk patients from Barton Memorial Hospital in South Lake Tahoe to regional medical centers in Reno and Carson City. We also run daily employee shuttles for facilities like Renown Health and Saint Mary’s Regional Medical Center, ensuring that essential staff can get to work even when they live over the state line in California. This is how you keep healthcare running in a crisis.

Evacuation Planning & Continuity of Operations

The best time to book an evacuation bus is before you need one. Reno Coach Bus Service works with public agencies and private organizations to develop transportation plans as part of their Continuity of Operations (COOP) and Continuity of Government (COG) strategies. We participate in annual tabletop exercises like FEMA’s Cascadia Rising and the California-Nevada Interstate Evacuation Plan, providing real-world data on how long it takes to load, deploy, and turn around a convoy of charter buses. Our experts can help you estimate fleet requirements based on population density, egress routes, and shelter capacity, then pre-stage vehicles at designated rally points when a storm or wildfire is approaching. By integrating charter buses into your overall evacuation strategy, you gain a flexible asset that can fill gaps left by school districts, transit agencies, and mutual aid partners. When the order comes down to roll, we’ll be there with engines running.
