More About School Buses
School buses in Albany come in a few different configurations, and the right one depends almost entirely on your headcount. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10 to 24 adults — a great fit for smaller student delegations, after-school programs, or a tight-knit youth sports team heading to Siena University (515 Loudon Rd, Loudonville, NY 12211) or the MVP Arena (51 S Pearl St, Albany, NY 12207) for an event. When your headcount climbs, a large conventional Type C school bus seats approximately 44 to 48 adults, giving your group more seating capacity to work with. Albanyminibuscompany.com lets you compare both types from a network of Albany-area companies so you match the bus to your actual group size — not the other way around!
