For airport-connected employee routes, Asheville Regional Airport keeps large-bus staging separate from ordinary curbside waiting: large buses use advance equipment and staging arrangements through Airport Communications at 828-684-4577. Your bus arrives with the airport approach already sorted, so employees can gather with their luggage instead of searching for a coach at the terminal. See the Asheville Regional Airport large-bus staging instructions for the airport-specific procedure.

When public transit is part of your employee commute plan, every ART route originates at the ART Transit Station at 49 Coxe Avenue, and city service runs from about 5:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday, with a standard fare of $1. A private shuttle fills the early, late, and cross-county gaps without sending your employees downtown to transfer.
See the City of Asheville ART fare and pass information for the current transit details.

Shuttle Your Team Past the I-26 Bottleneck Every Single Morning
Busrentalasheville.com makes it possible to take the worst part of your employees' commute completely off the table. The I-26 south corridor between downtown Asheville and the Arden/Fletcher industrial zone is consistently one of the most congested stretches of road in western North Carolina — and for workers at Linamar Corporation on Linamar Drive in Fletcher, or at the manufacturing facilities along the I-26 South corridor, there is no public transit option at all. Asheville Rides Transit (ART) routes do not reach Fletcher, Arden, or the Mills River industrial park.
A dedicated employee shuttle bus fills that gap directly — one vehicle, one pickup point, one predictable arrival time, every day. Compare routes and pricing from a network of bus companies serving the I-26 corridor and find what works for your team!
Cut the Parking Problem Out of Your Downtown Asheville Workday
This is the reality every downtown Asheville employer already knows: the Rankin Avenue Garage, the Wall Street Garage, and the Civic Center Garage fill up fast on weekday mornings, metered spots on Pack Square and Haywood Street run on two-hour limits, and the Asheville Downtown Association has called parking one of the top barriers to downtown employment. Instead of leaving your team to fight for spots by 8:15 a.m. or pay daily rates that add up fast, a commuter shuttle bus picks everyone up from a central staging point — a neighborhood lot in West Asheville, a Park & Ride near the I-240 ramp, a stop along Merrimon Avenue — and drops them steps from the office. The parking problem disappears from your employees' morning before they even leave home.
Compare shuttle options and pricing in seconds through Busrentalasheville.com!
Downtown garages are built around car-sized clearances: the Harrah’s Cherokee Center – Asheville Garage at 68 Rankin Avenue clears 6’5”, Biltmore Avenue clears 7’0”, and the Rankin Avenue and Wall Street garages clear 7’4”. Your full-size charter bus stays on the street and carries employees past those height limits instead of trying to turn a garage into a shuttle terminal. See the City of Asheville downtown garage locations and clearance information for the current measurements.
Seasonal Workforce Surges Are Easier With a Bus in the Network
It's easier than ever to scale your employee transportation up when Asheville's peak seasons hit. Spring and fall are the two biggest tourism surges in western North Carolina — April and May for the blooming season, October and November for leaf-peeping and fall festivals — and every hospitality and food-and-beverage employer in the region ramps up staffing significantly during those windows. Whether you are bringing on 30 additional seasonal workers at a Biltmore Village hotel, adding shifts at a River Arts District brewery, or expanding your team at a venue near the Omni Grove Park Inn on Macon Avenue, the network of bus companies through Busrentalasheville.com scales with you.
Add a route, add a vehicle, adjust headcount — compare your options and find what fits your season. Call 828-701-0215 to get a custom quote built around your peak-season schedule!
Hospital and Healthcare Campus Shuttles Built Around Your Shift Schedule
Busrentalasheville.com will help you find employee shuttle service timed to the shift rotations that healthcare employers actually run — not the 9-to-5 schedule that most transit options are built around. Mission Hospital (509 Biltmore Ave, Asheville, NC 28801) operates around the clock, and employee parking along Biltmore Avenue is extremely limited for a campus this size. A dedicated shuttle from a remote staging lot or from a central pickup point in South Asheville gets nurses, technicians, and support staff to the campus on time for a 6 a.m. shift change without the parking scramble.
The same logic applies to AdventHealth Hendersonville (100 Hospital Dr, Hendersonville, NC 28792) and the CarePartners campus on Sweeten Creek Road. Compare buses and shift-timed routes from the network and find the right fit for your healthcare team!
University and College Campus Commuter Routes Made Simple
Busrentalasheville.com puts employee shuttle options for Asheville's academic campuses right at your fingertips — and the need is real. UNC Asheville (1 University Heights, Asheville, NC 28804) sits on a hillside campus where faculty and staff parking is a recurring challenge, and Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College (340 Victoria Rd, Asheville, NC 28801) serves a large commuter employee base arriving from across the county. A shuttle route from a central Asheville pickup point up Merrimon Avenue to the UNCA campus, or a recurring run from North Asheville neighborhoods to the AB Tech Victoria Road campus, keeps employees out of the parking crunch and on campus on time.
Compare minibuses and full-size charter buses from a network of bus companies serving both campuses — and find the right vehicle for your headcount. Fill out one quick form to see instant pricing!
UNC Asheville requires every employee who brings a vehicle onto campus to register for a parking permit, while faculty and staff permits apply across the university’s Faculty/Staff, Non-Resident, and All Permit lots. Your employee shuttle removes that permit step from the morning and delivers the team together instead of sending each person into a campus lot search. See the UNC Asheville employee parking permit and campus lot information for the current rules.

Yes — recurring daily and weekly shuttle routes are one of the most common employee transportation setups booked through the network. Whether you need a Monday-through-Friday morning run from a West Asheville neighborhood to a downtown office, a shift-timed route to Mission Hospital, or a daily industrial shuttle down I-26 to the Fletcher corridor, you can build a recurring schedule around your exact needs. Mention your recurring schedule when you request your quote, and the booking team can put together a package that fits!
Yes. The network of bus companies through Busrentalasheville.com covers the entire western North Carolina region, including the I-26 South corridor toward Arden, Fletcher, and the Mills River industrial zone. Since Asheville Rides Transit (ART) does not run routes to those areas, a private employee shuttle is often the only realistic option for workers commuting to employers like Linamar Corporation in Fletcher.
Enter your route details to compare available options!
It depends on your headcount and your route. Smaller teams of 8 to 14 employees are a great fit for a sprinter van. Groups of 15 to 35 employees typically ride in a minibus, which is compact enough to navigate downtown Asheville streets and the tighter corridors near the River Arts District.
For 36 to 56 employees, a full-size charter bus with undercarriage luggage storage and onboard WiFi is the right call. Compare all available sizes and amenities side by side through the online quote tool — no account needed!
Absolutely. Multi-stop commuter routes are common and easy to set up through the network. A typical Asheville route might pick up employees in North Asheville near Merrimon Avenue, add a second stop in West Asheville near Patton Avenue, and then head downtown or south on US-25 to the worksite.
Each additional stop adds time to the route, so include all of your stops when you fill out the quote form so the pricing reflects the full itinerary accurately.
For a recurring daily route, booking four to six weeks out gives you the best vehicle selection and pricing. If your employee transportation need falls during Asheville's peak tourism seasons — spring (April through May) and fall (October through November) — book earlier, since demand for buses across the region increases significantly during those windows. For urgent or short-notice needs, call 828-701-0215 directly and the team will work to find available options for your start date as quickly as possible!
