More About School Buses
Not every Lawrence field trip looks the same — and the school Buses Available through the network reflect that. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults, making them a natural fit for smaller student groups heading to Watkins Museum of History on Massachusetts Street or a science lab visit at Gray-Little Hall, formerly the Integrated Science Building on Irving Hill Road. Need to move a bigger group?
Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults — plenty of room for a full classroom plus chaperones heading to the Baker Wetlands Discovery Center on North 1250 Road. One vehicle, one departure, everyone arrives together. That's the whole idea.
Compare both sizes side by side through the network and find what actually fits your headcount!

Common School Bus Amenities to Compare
School bus types commonly include the features that matter most when you're responsible for a group of students on Kansas roads. Many models include high-back padded bench seating, climate control — critical during hot late-summer afternoons in Douglas County — and overhead storage for backpacks, lunch bags, and field trip materials. ADA-accessible vehicles with wheelchair lifts are available through the network on request, so no student gets left behind on the itinerary.
Emergency exits, safety glass, and compartmentalized seating are common school-bus features; confirm the features of the vehicle offered for your trip. Just mention any specific accessibility needs or special requests when you fill out your quote, and a support team is ready at 978-645-9095 to help put together the right package!

How much does a School Bus cost?
School bus rentals in Lawrence cost $205–$365 per hour on weekdays, $240–$380 per hour on weekends, and $1,670–$2,335 per day. Your actual number lands inside those ranges based on the bus size, how far you're traveling, and the specific date. A Tuesday morning run from Cordley Elementary on West 19th Street to Riverfront Park prices differently than a Saturday trip during KU Hawk Week, August 21–30, 2026, when Douglas County demand can rise across the board.
If your trip falls during the April–May field-trip planning window, submit your date early so you can compare available options. No need to wait on callbacks or call five companies one at a time. Enter your date, group size, and pickup location into the 30-second online quote tool and you'll have pricing from the network in seconds — or call 978-645-9095 any time and a live agent will build a custom package around your itinerary!
