More About School Buses
Not every group needs the same bus, and that's exactly why the network carries more than one option! Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults — compact enough to navigate the tight turns near Kennedy High School on Highland Avenue or pull cleanly into a loading zone along Chase Parkway without blocking traffic. Need to move a bigger crowd?
Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults, giving you the capacity for a full class plus chaperones on a single run down the Waterbury-Naugatuck corridor. Why split your group across multiple vehicles when one bus handles everyone?

Popular Amenities on School Bus Rentals
School Buses Available through the network come with the features that actually matter on a Connecticut field trip day! Every model includes high-back padded seating, climate control for those raw November mornings when temperatures drop fast along the Mad River valley, and overhead storage so backpacks and lunch bags stay out of the aisle. Large conventional Type C models add undercarriage luggage compartments for equipment bags and sports gear — great for teams heading to competitions across New Haven County.
ADA-accessible vehicles with wheelchair lifts are available on request through the network. Just mention it when you fill out your quote!
High-back vinyl bench seating
Large opening windows
Overhead interior lighting
PA/microphone system with AM/FM radio
