More About School Buses
School Buses Available through the network come in two main configurations, and matching the right one to your headcount is the first decision you'll make. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults — compact enough to navigate tight drop-off loops at venues like the Dominguez Hills campus at 1000 E. Victoria Street in Carson without the maneuvering headaches a full-size coach brings. Need to move a larger group?
Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults, giving you the capacity for a full class plus chaperones in one vehicle. One bus, one pickup, one drop-off — no carpool coordination, no straggler headcount at every stop along the 110 Freeway.

Common School Bus Amenities to Compare
Depending on the vehicle offered, school buses in the network may include features that matter on a student trip across the South Bay. High-back padded seating can help keep passengers comfortable whether you're making a short run to Banning's Landing Community Center at 100 E. Water Street in Wilmington or heading further up the 91 to a regional competition. Climate control may help handle the temperature swings Carson sees between a cool marine-layer morning and a warm afternoon inland.
Overhead storage can handle backpacks, lunch bags, and jackets without cluttering the aisle. ADA-accessible vehicles with wheelchair ramps may be available through the network — just mention your accessibility needs when you fill out your quote!
