More About School Buses
Bringing a group of students, youth athletes, or community members together in Chico is so much simpler when everyone rides in one vehicle on one itinerary! Through the network, you can compare two main school bus types to match your exact headcount. The Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44–48 adults and is ideal for full classes, large youth groups, and church congregations heading to events across Butte County.
The Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults and are a great fit for smaller groups, tight pickup loops through Chico's residential neighborhoods, or trips where a full-size coach would be more bus than you need. Compare both side by side and find the right fit for your group in seconds!
