Full-fleet Options Available for Any Size Response

No two emergencies are alike—which is why West Des Moines Charter Bus offers a full range of vehicles to fit any size operation. Need to move an entire neighborhood out of a flood zone? Book multiple 56-passenger charter buses and run them on a loop between evacuation sites and temporary shelters. Coordinating a smaller-scale response for hospital staff or utility workers? Our minibuses (18–25 seats) are perfect for shuttling teams between job sites, staging areas, and command centers. We even have mid-size coaches (up to 35 seats) for groups that fall somewhere in between. Whatever the headcount, we'll make sure everyone gets where they need to go—together.
