With family roots in the bus industry back to 1959 The Bus Centre (TBC) brings decades of experience to Canadians with bus solutions for the school and commercial bus industry. TBC’s personable team is second to none in bus sales, parts and service with seasoned, knowledgeable professionals ready to assist you

In its humble beginnings, Thomas Bus Sales was originally operated as a company store in Edmonton until the mid-1970’s. Over the years, the business changed names and locations, ending up in the Acheson business park, ultimately becoming The Bus Centre in 2007.

Our ownership has a long history in bus contracting, which gives us valuable knowledge of the transportation industry as well as a thorough understanding of the customer experience.

Already boasting a great product line of choice bus offerings from Thomas Built Buses, Diamond Coach, Collins and Malley, TBC has continued to grow. In 2019, TBC acquired Star Bus Sales and began to represent Starcraft, a division of Forest River, across Canada. 

Starting small, TBC has grown to be the full sales, parts and service dealership it is today, servicing Alberta and Northern Canada with school buses and all of Canada with commercial offerings.

TBC is known for its experienced, friendly team to support the customer from vehicle purchase through the entire life cycle of the bus. TBC specializes in only buses, which ensures customers receive the best support and in-depth knowledge to keep their buses up and running.

Expect a great selection of best-in-class buses that offer the latest technology and custom options. Discover what many customers already know: there’s no better place than The Bus Centre to do business.
