ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Customer requests through BusRates.com more than doubled in the third quarter compared with the same period in 2025, according to the company’s analysis.
BusRates.com has helped consumers find charter bus companies and other passenger transportation providers for more than 25 years. Its listings include minibuses, school buses and party buses.
The website allows consumers to share trip details with multiple companies, connecting them directly with operators. The service competes with brokers that arrange transportation through third-party companies.
BusRates.com attributes the increase in requests to website improvements and efforts to attract consumers seeking transportation services.
“Our mission is to support motorcoach operators who own and operate their equipment by facilitating direct connections with consumers. By helping consumers find legitimate bus companies for their transportation needs, we create valuable opportunities for our operators to grow their businesses,” says Roxana Melgar, general manager of BusRates.com. “We’re excited to see this year’s improvements translating into significantly more leads for our operators.”
The challenge now is locating more companies to match the increase in leads. Motorcoach companies interested in obtaining more business for a flat monthly fee should contact BusRates.com at 703-838-2955 or info@BusRates.com. BusRates.com is your anti-broker website, powered by UMA.
