More About School Buses
From the compact Type A mini school bus seating approximately 10 to 24 adults all the way up to the large Type C conventional school bus seating approximately 44 to 48 adults, the network carries the right size for your group! A smaller Type A or Type B model is a great pick for tighter Lowcountry roads and residential neighborhood pickups, while the full-size Type C gives a large class or youth group plenty of room to spread out on the way to James Island County Park (871 Riverland Dr, Charleston, SC 29412) or across town to Palmetto Islands County Park (444 Needlerush Pkwy, Mount Pleasant, SC 29464). Compare sizes, pictures, and packages all in one place — and find the bus that actually fits your headcount!
