Can I carry two pieces of luggage as carry-on on a Greyhound?

I have one backpack (which has my laptop) and another luggage with my stuff in it. (which is below the allowable limit for a carry-on). Would I be allowed to carry both on board, just like in an airline?

BEFORE VOTING,PLEASE READ MY Y/A PROFILE FOR MY "BEARINGS" ON SECURITY ISSUES ****YES!!!--the lap top would be treated as the equivalent of a woman's purse bag!---over sized ,and/or,over-allowance will be stored below. ( from below paragraphs:"Laptop computers are considered "electronic items" and are prohibited as checked baggage, however they may be brought aboard as one of two allowed carry-on items." ) ----AND ( my personal hint(S) to you) ,IF THE LAPTOP WILL FIT INSIDE A LARGER SIZED BAG/CONTAINER WHICH IS STILL WITHIN THE OTHERWISE UNUSED ALLOWABLE CARRY-ON "LEGAL" 'SPEKS' ( = 'specifications'),THEN ,STUFF IT INTO YOUR CARRY-ON BAG /CONTAINER --------AND,YOU CAN FEEL****MUCH MORE**** SAFE AND SECURE THAT NOBODY WILL BE AS LIKELY TO TRY TO "RIP-YOU- OFF" OF YOUR VALUABLE STUFF IF YOU CAN SECURE A LOCKING TYPE DEVICE(PERHAPS,BY USING,(perhaps ,like maybe )A SMALL SIZED CHAIN (I use a dog "choker" chain ) WITH "LOCK-LOOPS" AT EACH END & SMALL TRAVEL PADLOCK/COMBO LOCK) TO YOUR SMALLER "ALLOWABLE SIZED" CARRY-ON TRAVEL SIZE SUITCASE/ BAG/CONTAINER,CONTAINING YOUR "higher valuable(s) items" ARE PACKED INSIDE OF IT SO THAT THE OUTER SMALLER ALLOWABLE SIZED "SUITCASE" IS SECURED ON THE BUS' LUGGAGE RACK "RAIL" ABOVE YOU DURING YOUR TRAVELS---IT WILL EVEN BE MOST OBVIOUS TO ALL OF OTHER PASSENGERS---IF A PERSPECTIVE THIEF WOULD EVEN ATTEMPT TO RIFLE THROUGH IT,SAY PERHAPS, IF, WHEN,or WHILE YOU DOZE, OR DO A "POTTY STOP"---ALWAYS,IN A LITTLE LOUDER VOICE THAN NORMALLY USED, POLITELY REQUEST THAT YOUR SEAT MATE KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR "brown bag,alumunium suitcase",etc= you mini description of it =your SMALL DESCRIPTION ) LUGGAGE FOR YOU( and,do this before making the potty trip,so several other bus passengers can "innocently" overhear your request)-----ALWAYS CARRY YOUR MONEY/CASH/JEWELS ON YOUR PERSON--BUT,"never ,NOT EVER !!!,in your checked luggage" ( lost/misplaced baggage is unfortunately,becoming much more frequently common)----I SUGGEST THAT YOU DIVIDE YOUR MONEY & JEWELRY ****HIDDEN( WHY "ADVERTISE" TO POTENTIAL THIEVES AS TO WHAT A WONDERFUL VICTIM THAT YOU COULD BE TO THEM!!!)**** INTO THIRDS--AND,THEN ,TO CARRY IT ON YOUR BODY IN AT LEAST THREE DIFFERENT PLACES: A WAIST MONEY BELT ,A NECK STRING MONEY "SAFE/VAULT", AND A LEG WRAP MONEY BELT ( or,even , in your sock(s)--- IF ROBBED YOU DO NOT LOSE ALL!!!


BAGGAGE INFORMATION
At Greyhound, passengers are responsible for transferring their own bags. Baggage assistance is available upon request. Special handling ID tags are available for customers that need help with their luggage, such as elderly passengers, customers with disabilities or adults traveling with small children.

Be sure that all checked bags have a claim check AND an identification tag. You must get both of these at the ticket counter prior to boarding. Please make sure your bags are properly tagged inside and out.

Take your baggage to the bus and give it to the baggage handler who will load the baggage underneath the bus. You are in charge of picking up your bags next to the bus at each transfer location and taking them to your connecting bus.

Greyhound baggage restrictions:

* Two (2) pieces of baggage are checked free of charge for adults and one (1) piece of baggage for children. Two (2) carry-on bags are allowed per customer, and each must be able to fit underneath the seat or in the overhead compartment.
* The maximum allowable weight for checked baggage is 50 lbs. per individual piece of baggage. A charge of $20 - $30 (depending on the distance traveled) will be charged for any baggage above the 50 lbs. limit.
* Baggage must not exceed 62 inches when adding the total exterior dimensions of the piece (length + width + height). A charge of $20 - $30 (depending on the distance traveled) will be applied to any baggage above the 62-inch limit.
o Packaging only exceptions to the following items: bicycles, skis and ski poles must be packed in wood, canvas or other substantial container, and securely fastened; towing equipment must be enclosed in rigid containers or wrapped in a strong material such as canvas and securely strapped or tied. Towing equipment is limited to 100 pounds actual weight; these items are not exempt from oversize charges.
* If bags exceed maximum size and/or weight, customers must ship the item via Greyhound PackageXpress.

Acceptable Types of Baggage
In general, acceptable baggage includes suitcases, duffel bags, toolboxes, trunks and securely tied cardboard boxes. A plastic and/or a paper bag is not acceptable as checked baggage. Shipping containers are available for a nominal fee at many terminals.

Acids, ammunition, animals, combustible liquids, compressed gases, corpses, cremated remains, explosives, firearms of all types, fireworks, flammable liquids, furniture, hazardous materials (poisons, radioactive materials, etc.), materials with a disagreeable odor, matches, merchandise for resale, protruding articles, or any unsecured articles including those in plastic or paper bags are prohibited. Electronic equipment (television, stereos, etc.), film (flammable), and perishable items (food) may be sent using Greyhound PackageXpress with appropriate packing. Items such as money and prescription medication may not be checked as baggage and are to be carried in the customer's possession.

Laptop computers are considered "electronic items" and are prohibited as checked baggage, however they may be brought aboard as one of two allowed carry-on items.

If you have any questions about what specific items are allowed on board (as carry-on or checked), please check our Prohibited Items List. Some items we allow on the list may be considered illegal on board public transportation in certain states. Greyhound will follow local law in these cases.
