More About School Buses
School buses come in two size categories, and knowing the difference helps you match the vehicle to your actual headcount before you ever fill out a quote form. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults — a great fit for a small enrichment group heading to the Newton History Museum at the Jackson Homestead (527 Washington St, Newton, MA 02458) or a compact class traveling to a program at the West Suburban YMCA. Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults, making them the go-to for full-grade field trips heading out on the Mass Pike or up I-95 toward a science center or performing arts venue.

The school Buses Available through the network come with the features your group actually needs on a Newton-area trip!

ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair lifts are available through the network on request — just mention it when you submit your quote! Exterior colors vary, and a support team is available at 862-354-9340 any time to walk through which amenities are available for your specific date and headcount.

How much does a School Bus cost?
School bus rentals in Newton cost $205–$365 per hour on weekdays, $240–$380 per hour on weekends, and $1,670–$2,335 per day depending on the provider, the date, and the specific vehicle. A Tuesday field trip from a Newton elementary school to the Trustees’ Chestnut Hill Farm prices differently than a Saturday tournament run up I-95 to the North Shore — and a handful of Newton-area dates tighten availability across the whole metro fast. Spring field trip season in April and May fills school buses across Newton, Brookline, and Watertown simultaneously, and graduation weekend at Boston College on Commonwealth Avenue brings additional demand to the area.
