Rohrer’s history all began in the early 1920’s when Howard E. Rohrer Sr. started transporting school children with his horse and wagon in Allen’s Cove, just south of Duncannon, Pennsylvania. The early horse-and-wagon evolved to a few wooden school bus bodies being built on car chassis’. Over the years, the need for student transportation grew.
Now fast forward to 1975. Howard E. Rohrer Jr. was running the business and our school bus fleet had grown to 70 buses. In addition to our growing school transportation service, Rohrer Bus added a Sales company and teamed up with Wayne school buses to represent their products. It was soon apparent that our school bus company was quickly outgrowing the facility on the family farm. So, in 1976, ground was broken for a new sales and service facility where our headquarters remain today.
