Given the typical vehicle up here in the North, if the bus has even a few people on it probably is an environmental win. Generally if a person is needed up here then a person will go down and get that person and return with them. Cars are less common than trucks and a "small" truck is a 1/4 ton. Additionally, the greyhound is a popular shipping choice for industry because of the time to ship. Most of the packages/mail gets sorted in Vancouver and then returns back up to Prince George. Putting on the Greyhound and it getting to where it needs to go next day was amazing. Shipping times were often better from Alberta and BC with the major players since the package didn't have to double back. Hotshot services are typically field based, but it isn't rare for somebody to hot shot packages between cities since it can take days through other methods now.
