More about our School Bus
While school buses are known for being basic, they still include several features that make them comfortable and practical for short trips around Millcreek and beyond. Every bus comes standard with forward-facing bench seats, powerful air conditioning and heating systems, and either two or three entry/exit doors for quick loading and unloading. Many models also include PA systems so you can communicate with passengers during the ride, as well as overhead lighting and emergency exits for safety. If you need something more specific—like a bus with extra luggage space or one that’s ADA-accessible—just let us know when you book. We can even arrange for custom exterior colors or wraps if you want the bus to match your school colors or branding.

Trips and Events in Millcreek a School Bus Is Great For
School buses are one of the most versatile and budget-friendly options available, making them a popular choice for a wide range of events and trips throughout Millcreek and the greater Salt Lake County area. They’re perfect for shuttling large groups to local destinations like the Millcreek Community Center, Big Cottonwood Regional Park, or nearby trailheads along the Wasatch Front.

How Much Does a School Bus Rental Cost, and What Factors Change the Price?
School bus rentals in Millcreek typically cost between $145 and $450+ per hour, $1,520 to $3,655 per day, or $6.00 to $9.95 per mile. The final price depends on several factors, including the size of the bus, the total distance traveled, the duration of the rental, and the time of year. Additional costs may include parking fees, tolls, and hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips. Gratuity is included in the quote, but other expenses are not. Rates are generally higher during peak seasons such as spring and summer, or when there is high demand due to local events.
How Does a School Bus Compare to Our Other Bus Types?
School buses are the most budget-friendly option available, but they come with fewer amenities compared to other types of buses. They are perfect for short-distance trips and large groups who don’t need luxury features. If you’re looking for something with more comfort, such as reclining seats, climate control, and entertainment systems, consider upgrading to a minibus, party bus, or charter bus. These options offer a higher level of comfort and convenience, making them ideal for longer trips or special events.
How Far in Advance Should I Book a School Bus?
We recommend booking your school bus at least 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if your trip falls during peak season or coincides with a major event in the Salt Lake City area. Availability can become limited quickly, particularly for large groups or multi-day trips. If you’re planning transportation for a wedding, corporate event, or sports tournament, securing your reservation early will give you the best selection of vehicles and pricing. Last-minute bookings are possible, but options may be limited and rates may be higher.
