We recommend booking your bus as early as possible, especially if your trip falls during peak season (May-June for graduations, September-October for fall weddings, or major event weekends like the Gresham Arts Festival).

Last-minute requests can sometimes be accommodated, but selection may be limited—particularly for specialty vehicles like party buses or ADA-accessible coaches. If you’re planning a large-scale event or need multiple buses, the more lead time you give us, the better.
