More About School Buses
Not every group in Richardson needs the same vehicle, and the network reflects that. Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults — the right call when you're moving a full class from Richardson High School down Campbell Road to a University of Texas at Dallas campus event, or shuttling a large youth sports team to a tournament in Frisco. When the headcount is smaller, Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults — compact enough to navigate the tighter turns near Main Street in downtown Richardson without the oversized-vehicle headaches that come with a full-size coach.
Why limit yourself to one company's fleet? Compare school buses from a network of providers serving Richardson and the surrounding Collin County area, all in one place!
