More About School Buses
With one quick form, you unlock access to multiple school bus types through the network, so you're never stuck guessing which size is right. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults, making them a sharp fit for smaller student groups, church youth outings, or tight neighborhood pickups across Plano, Irving, and Garland. Need to move a bigger crowd?
A Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44–48 adults — ideal for full-class field trips, band travel, or athletic team transportation throughout the Dallas–Fort Worth area. Compare both types side by side and choose the school bus that fits YOUR trip.

What does a School Bus rental cost?
Don't waste time placing call after call just to chase down a price. School bus rental pricing in Dallas runs $205 to $365 per hour on weekdays and $240 to $380 per hour on weekends, with full-day rates landing between $1,670 and $2,335 per day depending on the bus type, trip distance, and how long you need the vehicle. A Type A or Type B small school bus rental for a quick neighborhood pickup will price differently than a full-size Type C conventional school bus booked for a multi-stop academic tour of the Dallas Museum of Art (1717 N Harwood St, Dallas, TX 75201) or a day trip to Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in Glen Rose.
Buses can park along the right curb of Harwood Street between Woodall Rodgers Freeway and Flora Street, with spaces available first-come, first-served. That curbside setup gives a class one arrival point instead of splitting into separate cars. The fastest way to pin down your exact cost?
