More About School Buses
Not every Boise field trip needs the same vehicle, and that's exactly why the network carries more than one school bus type! Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults — great for a full grade level heading to the Zoo Boise at Julia Davis Park or a choir traveling out I-84 to a regional competition in Twin Falls. Need something more nimble for a smaller group navigating the tight drop-off loop at the Idaho State Museum on Julia Davis Drive?
Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults and handle inner-city Boise routing far more easily than a full-size coach. Because Boisecharterbusrentals.com pulls from a large network of independently owned transportation companies, you're never locked into whatever one fleet happens to have sitting in a lot — you compare what's available for your date, your headcount, and your route.

Common Amenities Available on School Bus Rentals
School buses in the network come equipped with the features that matter most when you're responsible for a group of students.

Many vehicles feature overhead emergency hatches, flashing stop-arm safety systems, and interior handrails.
Many builds in the network also carry ADA-accessible features including wheelchair lifts and wider aisle clearance — just mention it when you request your quote and the results will reflect what's available. Select vehicles include exterior luggage storage for instruments, sports equipment, or science fair projects. Amenities do vary by bus, so compare your options side by side right on the results page!

How much does a School Bus cost to rent?
School bus rentals in Boise cost $205–$365 per hour on weekdays, $240–$380 per hour on weekends, and $1,670–$2,335 per day.

Boise State home football Saturdays, including September 12, September 19, October 3, October 31, November 14, and November 21, 2026 at Albertsons Stadium, Boise State's May 7–8, 2027 spring commencement, and the Treefort Music Fest, scheduled for March 31–April 4, 2027 all pull from the same pool of available vehicles at once.
