We operate 365 days a year, providing continuous support for government and military clients across Mankato and beyond. Our dispatch center is always open to handle emergencies, reroute vehicles, or deploy additional resources as needed.

Commuter Shuttles for Essential Workers

Keep your essential workforce moving with private commuter shuttles tailored to your agency’s schedule. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many public transit systems reduced service or suspended routes altogether, leaving essential workers struggling to get to their jobs. A dedicated shuttle ensures that police officers, firefighters, healthcare providers, and utility crews can travel comfortably between home and work without relying on crowded trains or buses.

Set pickup times and locations that align with shift changes, overtime hours, or remote parking lots. Onboard amenities like free WiFi and USB charging ports allow passengers to stay connected during the ride. For added peace of mind, choose a bus with washable vinyl seats and powerful HVAC systems that circulate fresh air throughout the cabin.

Training Exercises and Drill Weekend Transportation

Coordinating transportation for military training exercises or National Guard drill weekends requires precision and attention to detail. Charter Bus Company Mankato has extensive experience working with units based at regional armories, ROTC programs at Minnesota State University, and other defense organizations across the state. We’ll make sure your troops arrive at Camp Ripley, Fort Snelling, or any designated training area ready for action.

Transporting large groups of personnel and equipment over long distances is no problem for our team. Full-size charter buses offer generous luggage space for rucksacks, weapons cases, and field supplies, while smaller shuttles can be used for intra-base movements or range rotations. If your exercise spans multiple days or locations, we’ll provide continuous support and adjust plans as needed.

Disaster Response and Emergency Evacuation

In times of crisis, you need a transportation partner you can count on. Charter Bus Company Mankato is ready to assist with disaster response and emergency evacuation efforts anywhere in Minnesota. Whether it’s moving residents out of harm’s way during a flood, transporting first responders to a wildfire staging area, or delivering relief supplies to a storm-damaged community, we have the resources and expertise to get the job done.

Our large-capacity buses are ideal for evacuating vulnerable populations such as nursing home residents or hospital patients. We can also set up mobile command centers or temporary shelters using vehicles equipped with restrooms and climate control. During recent emergencies, we’ve worked closely with agencies like FEMA, the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, and local emergency management teams to provide critical support under challenging conditions.
