Collins Daycare Bus
The Collins non-CDL daycare bus was built with little passengers in mind by expertly balancing the safest and strongest design with Collins’ trusted performance. With a capacity of up to 20 passengers in four or five rows and options for a gasoline, propane or diesel engine, the Collins daycare bus is rated as one of the most dependable daycare buses by childcare companies across the country.
The Collins daycare bus combines engineering, innovation and flexibility to deliver a bus that gets a gold star for safety and strength. Available in four models built on either a Chevy/GM or Ford Transit chassis, the Collins Chevy/GM daycare bus features either a 4.8L/6.0L gasoline or 6.0L propane engine, while the Collins Ford Transit daycare bus features either a 3.7L gasoline or 3.2L diesel engine. From features that improve a driver’s ability to see the road ahead to a seating platform that can accommodate any need, the Collins daycare bus earns high marks. The Collins daycare bus also comes with Collins’ standard back-up alarms and cameras, 3-point seats and a one-piece tubular roof bow design for unparalleled safety.
