Sandringham Charter Coaches PTY Ltd. (trading as Sandringham Coaches) is a Melbourne-based charter bus and coach operator tracing its origins to 1925 as the Bay Road Bus Service. The company is legally structured as W.R.L Management Pty Ltd (ABN 50 081 079 807, ACN 081 079 807) and operates as part of the Dineen Group of Companies, a family-owned conglomerate. It maintains a fleet of over 30 modern buses and coaches with seating capacities ranging from 21 to 57 seats, servicing Melbourne's bayside, eastern, and south-eastern suburbs with stated capability to operate city, country, and interstate destinations. The company holds Victorian Government Accreditation Number AO 00756 for tour and charter passenger services.

The service portfolio comprises private charter hire, school charter transportation (including daily school runs, camp and outdoor education transport, and special needs transport), VLINE public transport services, and corporate and sporting event transportation. Customer segments are split across educational institutions (school charters and bus runs), sports clubs and community groups, corporate clients, and special needs passengers. The company maintains ChildSafe compliance policies with verified driver credentials including working with children checks and police background checks, positioning safety as a central operational requirement for its school-facing business. Brighton Coaches is retained as a wholly-owned subsidiary brand.

Revenue is generated through one-time trip-based charter services, with pricing varying by vehicle type, passenger count, distance, and duration. Customer acquisition is sales-led, with inbound enquiries via phone, email, or an online quotation and booking portal powered by Coach Manager software from Distinctive Systems Ltd. The business carries no external funding, is entirely privately held under family ownership within the Dineen Group, and operates a single depot at 36-40 Nelson Street, Moorabbin.
