More About School Buses
If you're planning a Kansas City school bus rental, you'll find two main categories of school buses available through the network — and choosing the right one makes a real difference for your group. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10 to 24 adults, making them a sharp fit for smaller student groups, church youth trips, or compact field trip runs across the metro. Need more room?
A Type C large conventional school bus rental seats approximately 44 to 48 adults — plenty of space for a full classroom headed to Union Station Kansas City (30 W Pershing Rd, Kansas City, MO 64108) or a youth sports team traveling to a regional tournament. The North Lot is the designated bus drop-off, pick-up, and parking area, and Union Station offers free bus parking. Your class can arrive and leave together from one designated lot instead of splitting among separate car spaces. Compare both types side by side!
