To reserve a ride text, use this form, or phone Benzie Bus Dispatch at (231) 325-3000 ext#1 the day before, or 2 hours minimum in advance for priority rides. Let them know when you would like to reach your destination and approximately how long you need to be there.

We require no less than one hour in advance for cancelling a ride. If a ride is cancelled less than one hour in advance, double rider fare may be charged and this affects the available service other riders.
