2024 Collins® Daycare Bus TL408

HEAD-OF-THE-CLASS SAFETY

Collins has always received the highest marks in the school bus industry for strength and safety, so it’s no wonder childcare companies turn to Collins to design and build the most dependable daycare buses, too. With little passengers in mind and your daycare business at the forefront, we manufacture non-CDL daycare buses that expertly balance the safest and strongest design with our trusted performance. Because, at Collins, we know that safety matters most.

Safety is in the details. The Collins daycare bus utilizes engineering, innovation and flexibility to produce a non-CDL bus that gets a gold star for safety and strength. From features that improve a driver’s ability to see the road ahead to a seating platform that can accommodate any need, the Collins bus earns high marks by continuing a legacy of performance that began when we developed the first Type A school bus more than 50 years ago.

Features may include:

• Each bus is constructed with high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel to produce a one-piece tubular roof bow that is 66% stronger than traditional steel. Meanwhile, the sturdy roll cage structure maximizes passenger protection by utilizing full-length, interlocking cage stringers and floor beams. The result? A dependable G90 galvanized steel structure that resists corrosion.

• At Collins, we provide passengers with a 30- to 70K high-efficiency A/C system that comes flush mounted in the rear wall to deliver a seamless interior look and reliable source of air flow to keep the cabin at optimal temperatures no matter the weather outside. The system also features in-wall access for easy maintenance, as well as a standard skirt-mounted condenser.

• When it comes to building dependable buses for school, commercial and multi-purpose functions, our top priority is the safety of each passenger on board. That’s why our buses give drivers the maximum visibility available to ensure passengers enjoy a safe entry and exit. On the Ford Transit model, drivers have up to an impressive 810-square inches of visibility.

• In addition to the safety features built into each Collins bus, we also want to ensure passengers enjoy their commutes. Our high-visibility passenger window designs provide exclusive water shedding features to keep out the elements, the AS3 tempered, 26% tinted glass adds safety and temperature control, and the oversized windows give you flexibility for seat placement.
