More About School Buses
Not every group needs the same bus, and the network reflects that. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults — compact enough to navigate downtown Clearwater, and easy to stage near Ruth Eckerd Hall at 1111 McMullen Booth Road without blocking traffic. Need more room?
Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults — plenty of capacity for a full grade level heading to Caladesi Island State Park or a group traveling the Courtney Campbell Causeway to Tampa for a field trip. Because Clearwatercharterbusrentals.com pulls from a large network of independently owned companies, you're never stuck with whatever one fleet has left on the calendar. Compare sizes, compare pricing, and choose the bus that works for your group!
Inside a School Bus
Vehicles shown above are NOT the exact makes and models available for every trip. We are NOT a transportation company and do not own or operate vehicles. Photos are examples only and may show stock or typical vehicles, not the exact vehicle offered for your reservation.

Common Amenities Available on School Bus Rentals
School buses available through the network come with the features your students and chaperones actually need on a Clearwater trip. Every model includes high-back padded bench seating, climate control — essential when August humidity on the Pinellas Peninsula hits before your group even boards — and overhead handrails for safe movement through the aisle. Larger Type C models add undercarriage storage compartments for backpacks, lunch bags, and equipment that won't fit on laps, so the aisle stays clear from pickup to drop-off.
ADA-accessible school buses with wheelchair lifts are available through the network — just mention it when you request your quote. Emergency exits, safety lighting, and stop-arm systems come standard. If you have specific requests — a rear emergency door, a particular color, a vehicle that fits through the narrow entrance at a specific venue — mention it when you fill out the form or call 727-666-6620 and the team will work to find the right match!

After you submit your quote request, you can browse vehicle options, pricing, and available details on the results page.

How much does a School Bus cost to rent?
School bus rental prices in Clearwater vary by your date, your route, your group size, and the specific vehicle. A Tuesday morning field trip from a Clearwater school to Philippe Park in Safety Harbor prices differently than a Saturday charter during the Clearwater Jazz Holiday, scheduled for October 15–18, 2026 in Coachman Park, when demand across Pinellas County can tighten and available vehicles may go fast. The Clearwater Jazz Holiday runs October 15–18, 2026, and dates around major local events can require earlier planning.
No need to stress about the math, though. The fastest way to see numbers for your exact trip is to fill out the online form — you'll have pricing from a network of school bus companies serving Clearwater in under 30 seconds. Or call 727-666-6620 any time and a live agent will put together a custom package around your itinerary!
