No – some items are prohibited in your luggage when you travel with Greyhound. Prohibited items include:
✘ Flammable Goods
✘ Ammunition
✘ Animals
✘ Dry Ice

Transporting fruit and vegetables between some states is also prohibited under state quarantine laws; it’s your responsibility to make sure you comply with these laws.
What should I do if I lose my luggage?
Any baggage that is left aboard a bus or in our terminal will be carried to a central point, where it will be stored for no more than three months. To reclaim your lost luggage, contact our friendly call centre on 1300 473 946.
