More About School Buses
Not every school trip in Newark needs the same vehicle — and the network reflects that! Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults, making them the go-to for full classrooms heading to venues like the Newark Museum of Art at 49 Washington Street or a full-grade field trip to the Ironbound Recreation Center on Saint Charles Street. When your group is smaller — a handful of students, a club, or a specialized program — Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults and are compact enough to navigate Broad Street, handle the tight approach to Branch Brook Park, and pull cleanly into loading zones that a full-size coach simply cannot reach.
Why limit yourself to one fleet? Compare school bus types and sizes from a network of providers serving Newark and the surrounding area — all in one place, with online estimated pricing and vehicle photos, no account needed!

As planning figures, school bus rentals in Newark 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.
