More About School Buses
Wherever your Richmond school group is headed, the network helps you compare school bus options sized to your headcount and your itinerary. A Type C large conventional school bus comfortably seats approximately 44 to 48 adults, making it ideal for full classrooms, student organizations, and large academic groups traveling together across the Greater Richmond region. Smaller groups can take advantage of Type A mini and Type B small school buses, which seat approximately 10 to 24 adults and are perfectly sized for intimate field trips, club outings, or shuttle runs between campuses like Virginia Commonwealth University (821 W Franklin St, Richmond, VA 23284) and University of Richmond (410 Westhampton Way, Richmond, VA 23173).
