Where we book

Every state. One company.

Across town or across the country, we book group charter buses in all 50 states, and one company stands behind every trip, wherever it starts.

Starts near you
We start with vetted operators based in the state your trip begins in.
Crosses state lines
Trips that leave the state go only to operators licensed to run them.
Same everywhere
The same vetting, the same terms and the same day-before driver check.

What we handle

You plan the day. We handle the buses.

No calling around, no chasing quotes, no wondering who’s driving. That legwork is ours.

  • We find the operator

    We offer your trip to vetted operators in our network, so you never call around for quotes.

  • We check the paperwork

    Active passenger authority, insurance on file and no unsatisfactory safety rating, before every booking.

  • We size the fleet

    Big group? We add the buses. Running back and forth all day? We plan the shuttle.

  • We price it all-in

    Driver, fuel, gratuity, tolls and parking included. Nothing added at pickup.

  • We confirm your driver

    The day before, we make sure your operator confirms the driver and bus, and we chase it if they don’t.

  • We handle the changes

    Plans change? Tell us, and we sort it out with the operator.

    Ride, and track it in My trips

    We offer your trip to vetted operators in our network that fit it, and confirm one as quickly as possible, sometimes instantly. The day before your trip, your operator confirms the driver and bus, and we send you the driver’s name and number.

How it works for operators

Questions

Before you book

Is SimpleShuttles legit?

SimpleShuttles LLC is a North Carolina company (SOSID 3392545), founded in 2026 by Trent Crandall. We don’t own buses: every trip runs with an independent operator from our vetted network. Card payments go through Stripe, so we never see your full card number.

Where do you operate?

In all 50 states. We book trips anywhere in the US, across town or across state lines, starting with vetted operators based in the state your trip begins in. Trips that leave the state go only to operators licensed to run them.

Do you own the buses?

No. Every trip runs with an independent, licensed operator from our network, and we don’t operate vehicles ourselves. You get your operator’s name and USDOT number as soon as they’re confirmed.

What’s included in the price?

Driver, fuel, gratuity, tolls and parking included. Nothing added at pickup. Paid extras like WiFi are priced before you book. Extras are requested from the operator, not guaranteed. If your bus doesn’t have one, it comes off your bill. Changes you make to the trip, damage and extra cleaning aren’t included, and on an overnight stay your group covers the driver’s hotel room (and the bus’s parking if your hotel doesn’t allow buses).

Can we mix bus sizes?

Yes. In the quote form, tap “Mix bus sizes” and choose how many of each you need: Sprinters, mini buses and coach buses, up to 10 vehicles in all. For example, 80 people fit in 1 mini bus and 1 coach bus. You get one all-in price for the whole group, and any extras you pick apply to every bus.

When do I pay?

A small deposit books your trip. We email you a week before we charge the balance, which is 14 days before your trip. Trips 14 days away or closer are paid in full when you book. You can also pay the balance by bank.

How far ahead do I need to book?

Online, at least 8 hours before the pickup. Need a bus sooner? Call (704) 368-1515 and we’ll arrange it by phone. A bus in under 2 hours is sometimes possible, but not guaranteed, and it costs more.

What if my operator can’t make it?

We arrange a replacement from our network at the price you booked. If we can’t find an operator for your trip, or your operator can’t run it and we can’t arrange a replacement, we refund everything you’ve paid, however close to the trip that happens.

Do you have wheelchair-accessible buses?

Accessible vehicles are available on advance request. Tick “Wheelchair lift” when you get your price, and we’ll confirm a lift-equipped bus with you before your trip.
