More About School Buses
When you start comparing school buses through the Stjosephcharterbuscompany.com network, you'll find two main categories built for different group sizes and travel styles. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10 to 24 adults, an ideal fit for smaller youth groups, daycare outings, or a tight-knit team traveling across Buchanan County. Need more room?
A Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44 to 48 adults, giving bigger groups (think church congregations, school clubs, or sports squads) plenty of space to spread out for the ride. Call 816-205-8244 and a live agent will help you compare sizes!
