How to Choose a Bus Charter Company

Traveling by a charter bus is one of the most economical and safe ways to explore the thousands of highways and byways of this big beautiful country. It is also a fun and relaxing way to travel. But not all charter bus companies are created equal.

Before you decide on one for your next company, family or private group outing, consider the following aspects carefully. Remember that you are placing your life and the lives of people you hold dear in their hands; make sure the charter bus company you hire is worthy of such trust.

Safety and Compliance

Before anything else, make sure the safety record of the charter company is unblemished. You can check this information online (www.safersys.org). Do not deal with a company with an “unsatisfactory” rating. A reputable company has the safety of their passengers as their top priority and works hard to obtain and maintain a high safety rating.

Samson Trailways holds the highest possible safety rating from the Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Department of Defense. We do everything we can to safeguard and protect the lives that have been entrusted to us for the entire duration of the trip.

Fleet Maintenance

Regular and rigid fleet maintenance should be the norm for any reputable charter bus service. As a leading Atlanta bus charter company with decades of experience, we take great pride in offering our passengers clean, comfortable and well-maintained buses for all their trips.

Professional Drivers

Make sure the drivers of the charter company you are considering have current Commercial Driver’s License and updated DOT files. You can ask to see this, as well as proof of their insurance certificate, prior to booking a trip.

All our drivers at Samson Trailways undergo a strict pre-employment screening and must pass a DOT physical examination. We never gamble with the safety and well-being of our passengers. We make sure our buses are always in top roadworthy condition and our drivers are qualified and experienced professionals.
