Streamlining the process of shipping your bus is easy when you choose Wide Load Shipping. After submitting a request for a quote or calling us to request our services, we will start the process by asking you more about what kind of bus you wish to transport. After learning more about the size of your bus, we will ask for the origin of the bus, the destination zip code and the dimensions of the bus.
One of our agents will then use this information to create an estimate based on the type of bus, transportation required and the distance the bus will travel. If you have a more immediate need for our services or plan on moving your bus multiple times throughout the year, we will include these cost factors when creating your estimate. Let our team handle everything from dispatch to delivery for a seamless process.
Many factors can influence the cost of shipping your bus, like the size of the bus, the distance and the transport method. Elements such as routes, tolls and permits can also impact the price. Smaller buses are generally less expensive to transport, while larger vehicles require a higher cost.

We ship buses throughout the continental United States. For overseas shipments, we provide port-to-port shipping, where a driver will transport your load to a port before loading it onto a cargo ship headed to a port in your desired country. Since international transport requires additional customs paperwork, we encourage you to request a quote to learn more about this service and if it’s right for your transport needs.
Your exact shipping times will vary based on how far you plan on shipping a bus and the specific method of transportation you choose. Standard shipping generally takes one to seven days, while choosing an expedited shipping option allows for faster delivery.
At Wide Load Shipping, we take great pride in keeping all materials safe throughout shipping. We will provide all straps and covers to ensure your bus arrives in the same condition it left in. Our team will also thoroughly inspect your bus before loading it onto one of our trailers and again once we unload it off a trailer to verify that it is still in excellent condition.
Wide Load Shipping provides transparent bus transport services at an affordable rate. When you work with us, our transport agents will get all the necessary details regarding bus shipping, including bus size, weight, pickup and delivery location. We will find the best route and trailer for your bus based on its weight and dimensions.
A standard flatbed trailer is suitable for transporting a minibus or shuttle. However, large buses, including school buses, double-deckers, highway buses and transit buses, require a multi-axle trailer like a step-deck or an RGN. Whether your bus is in the proper condition or is inoperable, our transport logistics experts will ensure it’s transported on the right equipment. Our drivers have the training and experience to transport any model and size of a bus.
