More About School Buses
School buses in the network come in two main configurations, and the right one depends entirely on your headcount. Type A mini and Type B small school buses are generally suited to smaller groups — compact enough to navigate tight drop-off lanes at venues like the Lexington Children's Theatre on West Short Street or arrive at Transylvania University on North Broadway without blocking traffic. Need to move a bigger crowd?
Type C large conventional school buses can accommodate much larger groups, giving you the capacity to move an entire grade level in one trip instead of two. Exact passenger capacity varies by floor plan and seating configuration, so confirm the available capacity in your quote. Through Lexingtoncharterbusrentals.com, you can compare both configurations from a large network of independently owned companies serving Lexington — so you're matching the bus to your group, not the other way around!

How much is a School Bus rental?
School bus rental prices in Lexington run $205–$365 per hour on weekdays, $240–$380 per hour on weekends, and $1,670–$2,335 per day.
