Ankeny Emergency Charter Bus & Minibus Rental

Disaster Relief Support for First Responders

In addition to evacuating civilians, Charter Bus Company Ankeny also supports first responders and relief workers during disaster recovery operations. We can provide shuttle service between staging areas, command centers, and disaster sites to help move personnel and supplies where they’re needed most. Our buses have plenty of storage space for backpacks, coolers, tools, and other gear. Onboard amenities like climate control, reclining seats, restrooms, and Wi-Fi give your team a comfortable place to rest and recharge between shifts.

If your organization is deploying to a disaster zone outside of Iowa, we can arrange long-distance transportation to get you there safely. We’ve worked with FEMA, the Red Cross, the National Guard, and other agencies on regional and interstate missions. Whether you’re responding to a hurricane on the Gulf Coast or a wildfire in the Rockies, we’ll make sure your team arrives together and ready to work.

Affordable Rates and Flexible Contracts

Budget is always a concern during emergency response, which is why Charter Bus Company Ankeny offers competitive pricing and flexible contract options. You can book a bus for a single trip, a multi-day assignment, or an open-ended deployment depending on your needs. We offer discounted rates for government agencies, non-profits, and mutual aid partners. If you require standby service during peak risk periods (such as tornado season), we can negotiate a retainer agreement to keep vehicles on-call and ready to roll at a moment’s notice.

There are no extra fees or surcharges—what you see is what you pay.

Serving All of Polk County and Beyond

Charter Bus Company Ankeny is based in Ankeny and serves the entire Des Moines metropolitan area, including Altoona, Bondurant, Johnston, Grimes, Urbandale, and West Des Moines. We also cover suburban and rural communities in Polk County such as Pleasant Hill, Mitchellville, Elkhart, Alleman, and Runnells. If your emergency plan involves relocating people to shelters or hospitals outside the immediate danger zone, we can transport them to destinations anywhere in Iowa, including Ames, Newton, Marshalltown, Pella, Indianola, or even across state lines to Omaha, Kansas City, or Minneapolis.

No matter where your crisis occurs—whether it’s a chemical spill near the John Deere plant, a flood along Fourmile Creek, or a tornado touchdown in a residential neighborhood—Charter Bus Company Ankeny has the resources and experience to help you manage it. We’ve built strong relationships with local emergency managers, public health officials, and nonprofit organizations, and we’re ready to assist whenever you call.

Comfortable and Accessible Buses for Every Need

Our fleet includes a wide range of vehicles to suit any situation. For small groups or quick trips across town, a minibus or sprinter van is ideal. These nimble vehicles can navigate narrow streets and congested areas with ease. For larger groups or longer journeys, a full-size charter bus offers maximum capacity and comfort. Passengers will appreciate features like cushioned seats, overhead storage racks, individual reading lights, and tinted windows for privacy.

If you need to accommodate individuals with mobility challenges, we have ADA-compliant buses equipped with wheelchair lifts, securement stations, handrails, and priority seating. All riders deserve to be treated with dignity and respect during an emergency, and we’re committed to making our services accessible to everyone.
