More About School Buses
The school Buses Available through the network come in two configurations, and matching the right one to your headcount matters. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults — compact enough to navigate the tighter roads around downtown Suffolk and pull cleanly into loading zones at venues like Suffolk Center for Cultural Arts on West Finney Avenue. Need to move a bigger group?
Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults, giving you the capacity for a full class plus chaperones on a single vehicle. No splitting the group across two cars, no staggered arrivals, no missing students at the entrance — everyone loads together and arrives together. Why limit yourself to one company's lot?
