Buses for Sale in Ohio
New and used buses, vans, and shuttles delivered anywhere in Ohio, with a dedicated regional sales rep, nationwide service coverage, and in-house financing behind every vehicle.
Ohio is one of the more popular midwestern states in the country. It has three major cities - Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati, considered the state's heart. Each has its own distinct culture and historical tradition. Cleveland is an arts hub, home to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Playhouse Square. The smaller city of Cincinnati is best known for its proximity to the Ohio River and 19th-century architecture-heavy Over-the-Rhine district.
For a nature escape, we are big fans of the Lake Erie Islands and Cuyahoga Valley National Park, with more than 120 miles of hiking trails. Southeastern Ohio is well-known for the Hocking Hills region and imposing sandstone cliffs.

Which TESCO Vehicles Come Recommended for Ohio Residents?
Child Care Operators. As one of the largest stocking dealers nationwide, we have a healthy inventory of new and used child care buses. Known as MFSABs (Multi-Function School Activity Bus), they are very popular with daycare centers for their versatility. Our most popular option is a low headroom Type A bus with a 14-child capacity equipped with child check systems to keep your children safe.
Another benefit of new and used child care buses is no need for a Commercial Driver License (CDL) for our smaller models.
For more information on our child care buses and to view inventory, visit TESCO - Child Care Buses
Mobile Health Clinics. With thousands of health clinics operating in Ohio, we are happy to offer new and used mobile medical clinics. They come in different configurations, from simpler one-room trailers to larger models with a waiting area and two exam rooms with extra dental, exam, and blood draw space.
Our new and used mobile health clinics can also be equipped with dental chairs, sink areas, upper/lower cabinets, and other amenities that replicate the look and feel of traditional fixed clinics. Some are even equipped with wheelchair lifts.

"Bus came with no First Aid kit and check engine light was on the first time we started it. We had to take to local dealership for warranty. However Jeff was very quick to respond to my issues listed and we was able to get fixed quick. I love dealing with Tesco, the service dept. (Fred & Matt) are wonderful and also helpful. Jeff always helps with any vehicle needs I have. Thank you for all you do!!"

What Ohio customers say
-
“Thank You so much very appreciate. Ella N., Transportation Coordinator,”
-
“The tailpipe didn't quite meet the requirements from the state highway as it is to be within 6", I believe, from the end of the vehicle. They said they would allow it this inspection but have it corrected when you return for a re-inspection. We did communicate that to Tesco but I'm not sure we have a resolution on the fix.”
-
“Kacy was fantastic during this entire process. Was able to answer all my questions and kept me informed when there were updates. Was a super smooth process thanks to his help.”
-
“We leased 4 vehicles and Steve was wonderful through the entire process!”
-
“Thank you, Hugs-n-Hearts ELC Columbus, OH.”
-
“I'm always happy when dealing with TESCO. Their customer service is second to none!!!”
