More About School Buses
The school bus is a purpose-built group mover — and in Tempe, that matters more than people expect! Two sizes are available through the network. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults, compact enough to navigate tight drop-off loops at venues like the Arizona Museum of Natural History or thread through the congested streets around Mill Avenue without the oversized-vehicle headaches that follow a full-size coach.
Need more room? Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults, giving you plenty of capacity for a full classroom plus chaperones heading out to Papago Park or across the I-10 to the Phoenix Zoo. Why limit yourself to one fleet?

Common School Bus Amenities to Compare
The school Buses Available through the network come with the features your group actually needs on a Tempe trip! Every model includes climate control — non-negotiable when August temperatures in Tempe routinely push past 110°F and a 20-minute ride across the Valley can feel like a lot longer without it. High-back padded seating keeps passengers comfortable on longer runs, and emergency exits and safety equipment meet Arizona Department of Transportation standards throughout.
Overhead storage handles backpacks, day bags, and lunch boxes so the aisle stays clear from first pickup to last drop-off. ADA-accessible vehicles with wheelchair lifts are available on request through the network — just mention it when you fill out your quote! Whatever your group needs, there's a school bus in the network ready for it.

How much does a School Bus cost?
School bus rentals in Tempe cost $205–$365 per hour on weekdays, $240–$380 per hour on weekends, and $1,670–$2,335 per day depending on the vehicle size, the date, and how long you need it.
