More About School Buses
School Buses Available through the network come in two distinct size classes, so your headcount drives the pick rather than the other way around. Type A mini and Type B small school buses seat approximately 10–24 adults — compact enough to navigate the tight drop-off loop at Davenport Central High School at 1120 N Main Street or pull cleanly into the parking area at Vander Veer Botanical Park without the oversized-vehicle headaches that come with a full coach. Need to move a bigger group?
Type C large conventional school buses seat approximately 44–48 adults and give every student a seat with room to spare for backpacks, lunches, and gear. Why limit yourself to one fleet? Compare school buses from a network of providers serving Davenport and the surrounding Quad Cities area — all in one place, with instant online estimates and no account needed!

Common Amenities Available on School Bus Rentals
The school buses available through the network come with the features that actually matter on a Davenport trip! Every model includes climate control and heating — critical when a January field trip to the Figge Art Museum on West Second Street has your students waiting at the curb in a Quad Cities wind. High-back padded seating keeps students comfortable on longer runs up I-80 toward Iowa City or down IL-92 into the Illinois Quad Cities.
Emergency exits and safety lighting meet all state requirements, and ADA-accessible vehicles with lift equipment are available through the network on request — just mention it when you fill out your quote! Amenities vary by bus and provider, so compare options side by side and choose the one that fits your group!
High-back vinyl bench seating

What does a School Bus rental cost?
School bus rentals in Davenport cost $205–$365 per hour on weekdays, $240–$380 per hour on weekends, and $1,670–$2,335 per day. A Tuesday field trip to the Putnam Museum on West 12th Street prices differently than a Saturday sports charter up US-61 — and a handful of Davenport dates tighten availability across the whole Quad Cities market fast. The 2027 Quad-City Times Bix 7 on July 24, 2027, the Bix Beiderbecke Memorial Jazz Festival in late July, and spring prom season across Davenport Community School District all drive demand early.
