More About School Buses
Not every group needs the same school bus — and on Renocharterbusrentals.com, you don't have to settle for whatever one company happens to have sitting in the lot. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults, making them a sharp fit for smaller class sections, after-school club trips, or a quick run from a Midtown Reno charter school to Idlewild Park on Riverside Drive. Need to move a full grade level?
A Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44–48 adults — more than enough room for students, chaperones, and the teacher who always brings the snack bag. Because Renocharterbusrentals.com pulls from a large network of independently owned transportation companies serving Reno and the surrounding region, you're comparing sizes, availability, and pricing side by side — not guessing from a single brochure. Why limit yourself to one fleet when the whole network is right here?

What’s Typically Included on School Bus Rentals
School Buses Available through the network come with the practical features your group actually needs on a Reno trip! Every model includes high-back padded seating with a center aisle wide enough for students to move without bumping into each other, plus climate control — critical when an October field trip to Lake Tahoe starts at 55 degrees and climbs to 75 by afternoon on the drive back down US-395. Overhead parcel storage handles backpacks and lunch bags so the aisle stays clear, and large windows give every seat a sightline — great when your class is watching the Truckee River corridor roll by on the way to a nature study at Oxbow Nature Study Area off Dickerson Road.
ADA-accessible school buses with wheelchair lifts are available through the network too — just mention it when you fill out your quote so the right vehicle comes back in your results!
High-back vinyl bench seating
Large opening windows
Overhead interior lighting
PA/microphone system with AM/FM radio
Air conditioning on select vehicles
Under-seat storage for bags and equipment
Amenities listed above are common features that MAY be available on buses. Because we are a referral website and do NOT own or operate buses, exact features vary by vehicle, provider, and availability. After you submit your quote request, you can browse vehicle options, pricing, and available details on the results page. To confirm the exact amenities included with a specific vehicle offered for your trip, call 775-460-9160 before booking.
How much is a School Bus rental?
School bus rentals in Reno cost $205–$365 per hour on weekdays, $240–$380 per hour on weekends, and $1,670–$2,335 per day. A Tuesday field trip from a Northwest Reno elementary school to the Terry Lee Wells Nevada Discovery Museum (490 S Center St, Reno, NV 89501) prices differently than a Saturday tournament run out I-80 toward Battle Mountain — and spring graduation season across Washoe County School District campuses tightens availability fast across the whole Reno market. Book as early as you can; waiting until the week before almost always means higher rates and fewer vehicles to choose from.
