What Carolina Limousine and Coach does

Carolina Limousine & Coach is a privately held chauffeured ground transportation company founded in 2002 by Joe Reinhardt in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, operating across five offices in the Carolinas (Myrtle Beach, Charleston, Columbia, Greenville, and Wilmington, NC). The company operates a multi-category fleet spanning executive buses (23-48 passengers), motor coaches (34-56 passengers), limo coaches with entertainment systems, stretch limousines, luxury sedans and SUVs, and a custom-built vintage-style wedding trolley. Service lines address weddings, corporate events, airport transfers, city-to-city transfers, sports team travel, nightlife, and curated tourism experiences (brewery tours, history tours, seasonal holiday tours).

The business operates on a consultative sales model with dedicated trip planners, quote-based pricing (no public rate cards), and direct booking via phone, email, and the company website. Geographic reach is anchored in South Carolina with national extension through the CLC Worldwide affiliate network. Enterprise relationships include exclusive transportation contracts with the Charleston Stingrays, Charleston RiverDogs, Charleston Battery, the Charleston Wine and Food Festival, the Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce, Presidential Campaigns (including Secret Service coordination), and Fortune 500 corporate conferences. The three-step vehicle cleaning process (Deep Clean, Disinfect, Sanitize) has been recognized as the industry standard by Chauffeur Driven publication, and the 34-passenger MCI motor coach features interiors co-designed with BMW Group Designworks.

The company has received the Myrtle Beach Small Business of the Year award (2023) and Inc. 5000 recognition. It is a certified member of the International Motorcoach Group. Revenue is generated entirely through service fees on hourly charters, distance-based transfers, and packaged tour experiences; no subscription, licensing, or recurring-contract revenue model is disclosed.
