More About School Buses
With Busrentalsanclemente.com, renting a school bus in San Clemente puts you in touch with a large network of independently owned transportation companies — so you're never stuck with whatever one single operator happens to have sitting in a lot! You'll find two main types available through the network. The Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44 to 48 adults, making it a great pick for full classrooms, large youth groups, or any outing where headcount is high.
Smaller groups will love the Type A mini and Type B small school buses, which seat approximately 10 to 24 adults — compact enough to navigate tighter routes through San Clemente's hillside neighborhoods and beach-area streets, but still roomy enough to keep everyone comfortable from pickup to drop-off. Compare both types side by side through the network and find the one that fits YOUR group!
