Getting your Bus Licence is a great way to increase your employability and give you more flexibility for excursions and trips with your students. And the best part- You can get it within 1 day and from as little as $540.
The type of bus that you need to drive will determine the overall cost of your licence as there are 3 different types of Rigid Licence.
There are 3 types of Bus, and each one requires a different type of licence. Our personal recommendation is to be prepared and get your HR Licence so you can drive all buses whether at your current job or one in the future. The 3 types of Bus are:
These are 4.5t GVM to 8t GVM and only contain 2 axles. This is usually your 12-18 seat buses that are used by small schools or shuttle bus services.
To drive a minibus you only need a LR Licence. With this said, there is minimal price difference between your LR Licence and MR Licence. The only difference- Your MR Licence allows you to drive regular sized buses as well.
These buses weight over 8t GVM but still only have 2 axles. They normally carry 20-40 people, either as public buses or as school buses.
To driver a Regular sized bus you need your MR Licence which you can get from just $540 for a 1 day course and lesson.
TIf you’d like to driver this style of bus, then you’ll need your HR Licence. These buses normally hold 40-60 passengers, and are the largest buses on the road.
TIn order to driver these buses, or any vehicle that weighs more than 8t GVM and has 3 axles, you need your HR Licence.

Most jobs that require an LR Licence do so as a part of many roles. For example some labourer and delivery jobs, minibus drivers for couriers and airport shuttles as well as some bus driver positions.
If you’re getting your heavy vehicle licence to increase your skills and get a new job we strongly suggest that you upgrade to an MR Licence instead. They are just as easy and affordable but provide far more flexibility in the vehicles you can drive. Click here for MR Licence.
