Why Arlington Heights Coach Bus Service Is the Best Choice for Emergency Transportation
Arlington Heights Coach Bus Service has been providing emergency transportation services in Arlington Heights and throughout Illinois for years. We’ve helped schools, businesses, government agencies, and event organizers handle every kind of crisis—from winter storms that shut down I-90 and Route 53 to power outages, chemical spills, and active shooter incidents. Our team understands how to coordinate with local authorities, follow incident command protocols, and keep people calm during stressful situations. When you call us, you get a dedicated account manager who will stay in contact with you until the job is done. We can also help you create a custom emergency transportation plan before disaster strikes, so you’ll be ready for anything.

Immediate Dispatch and 24/7 Support
Emergencies don’t wait—and neither do we. Our reservation specialists are available 24/7/365 to take your call and dispatch a vehicle anywhere in the Chicago area within hours. Whether you need to evacuate a nursing home in Buffalo Grove, transport stranded commuters from downtown Chicago, or relocate residents after a gas leak in Des Plaines, we’ll get it done fast. We can also station standby buses at critical locations during severe weather warnings or large public events, so you’re prepared for any contingency.

Flexible Fleet Options for Any Situation
We offer one of the largest and most diverse fleets in Illinois, with vehicles ranging from 10-passenger sprinter vans to 56-passenger motorcoaches. This allows us to accommodate groups of any size and meet specific needs such as wheelchair accessibility, luggage storage, or onboard restrooms. For example, a school district in Schaumburg might request multiple minibuses to evacuate students to a nearby church, while a corporate client in Rolling Meadows could use a single coach bus to shuttle employees to a backup office. Whatever your requirements, we have the right vehicle for the job.

Serving All Types of Emergencies
Our emergency transportation services cover a wide range of scenarios, including natural disasters (floods, tornadoes, blizzards), hazardous material incidents, building fires, utility failures, civil disturbances, and public health crises. We regularly work with schools, universities, hospitals, senior living facilities, manufacturing plants, and municipal governments across Cook County, Lake County, and DuPage County. Recent projects include assisting with flood evacuations in Wheeling, providing shelter transfers during a heatwave in Elk Grove Village, and supporting a mass vaccination site in Skokie.

Custom Plans and Rapid Response Times
Every emergency is different, which is why we offer fully customized transportation plans tailored to your specific risks and resources. We can pre-stage vehicles at strategic locations, establish primary and secondary evacuation routes, designate pick-up/drop-off points, and integrate with your existing emergency operations center (EOC). In the event of an unplanned incident, our average response time is under two hours for most locations within the Chicago metro area. We also provide real-time updates via phone, text, or email so you always know the status of your evacuees.
