Huntington Coach began its operations in 1927 by transporting workers to local factories during World War II. In 1956, Huntington Coach changed owners and shifted into school transportation, serving Long Island communities with an inaugural fleet of 100 vehicles. Since then, Huntington has grown and expanded to make a name for itself as a leader in the industry, providing services to 12 school districts in Long Island, with over 900 vehicles in its current fleet.
