More About School Buses
Through a large network of independently owned transportation companies serving Petaluma and all of Sonoma County, you'll have your pick of school bus types to match your group size perfectly. The Type C large conventional school bus seats approximately 44–48 adults and is the right call when your whole class, team, or group is coming along — plenty of room for everyone without squeezing into rows. When your headcount is smaller, the Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults, keeping the trip comfortable and right-sized.
