Find buses to Redding

The main company that provides bus service to Redding is Greyhound. Greyhound buses feature free Wi-Fi throughout your trip and the power outlets attached to most seats ensure that your devices will stay fully charged. The leather bus seats allow you to recline while resting your feet on the footrest. This comfortable setup continues with the fact that no passenger gets stuck with a middle seat because no middle seats exist. You either get a window seat or an aisle seat. Long-distance buses stop multiple times to allow passengers to use the restroom and stretch their legs. However, if you need to use the restroom before a scheduled stop, there is also a clean restroom on board each bus. Passengers with mobility issues can rest assured that there is accessible seating in the front row, a wheelchair lift for getting on and off the bus, and staff to provide help with other requests.

The main bus station in Redding is known as the Downtown Transit Center, or the RABA Passenger Terminal. This station provides local buses for the Redding area as well as long-distance buses for other towns, cities, and states. It’s conveniently located in downtown Redding, so if you’re staying at one of the downtown hotels, the bus station is likely within walking distance. If you’re a bit further away and want to use public transport, nearly all the local RABA buses make a stop at the Downtown Transit Center at some point along their route. Generally speaking, for destinations to the east of downtown, a 2E bus can pick you up and circle back to the bus station. For destinations to the west of downtown, a 2W bus can do the same. Alternatively, there are multiple taxi and ride-sharing services that can bring you to the bus station.

Bus travel from Redding has a variety of benefits over other means of travel. In general, bus prices are more budget-friendly than plane tickets and driving costs, so it’s easy to find cheap bus tickets from Redding to many other destinations. Being a passenger on a bus is often more relaxing than being a driver in a car, especially when you consider all the onboard entertainment options. Alongside reading and watching videos, it’s much easier (and safer) to let your mind wander and take in the scenery when you’re a bus passenger than when you’re a car driver. When compared to a plane, the possibility of losing luggage on a bus is lower because there are fewer passengers and you can see the staff placing it under the bus. Airports are usually far away from the city center because they require a lot of open space. Bus stations, however, are usually located in or near the downtown area.

Passengers with Redding bus tickets are allowed a total of four bags—a carry-on plus three to be stored under the bus. The carry-on and the first bag under the bus are free, but the other two come with an extra fee. Acceptable bags include backpacks, duffel bags, toolboxes, trunks, suitcases, and securely tied card boxes. Bags that won’t be accepted include plastic bags, paper bags, or bags with items sticking out of them. Car seats and strollers are allowed for no extra charge—either onboard or under the bus. Special items like bikes, skis, golf clubs, or fragile material should be bubble-wrapped, packed in styrofoam, or securely placed in a cardboard container. Medications, special needs devices, food and drinks, and accessories are allowed on board. Alcohol, guns, explosives, dangerous chemicals, martial arts items, and hoverboards are not allowed at all. Tools, sporting goods, and some sharp objects are allowed to be stored under the bus.
