You’re geared up and ready to paint the red. Instead of risking a night in jail you decide to hire a limo service. This is the first step to assuring your night ends up the right way.

PRICING

Limos can be rented in many different ways. Most limo companies will require an hourly minimum or round trip guarantee. Prices are typically lower for multiple hour charters but will vary depending on the time of year and type of vehicle. Another option is known as a pick-up and drop-off. This is a common and affordable way to go if you are only planning to go to one location for the night. A pro-active limo company will offer certain packages which will include additional specials such as club admission, beverages, bar specials and much more. When considering a company, be sure to ask about all of the available options and choose the one who is willing to go out of their way for you.

TYPES OF VEHICLES

There are several options when it comes to booking your limo service. For larger groups you may want to consider a limo bus or trolley. For a safe and reliable way to go you should simply stick with a Lincoln Town Car or sedan. For a crazy/wild ride you should seek the services of an SUV or exotic limo.  BUYER BEWARE:  Not all limos are created equal.  Quality limo services take pride in their limo fleet and will charge a premium for newer and cleaner rides.  A smart shopper will understand this and go with a company that provides all-of-the-above.

CONTRACTS

Always read the fine print before signing any contracts. Most limo companies have different rules and regulations when it comes to the services they provide during each charter. Be sure to ask important questions ahead of time such as cancellation policies, mechanical failures, on-time guarantees and quality of vehicles.

CHAUFFEUR

A professional chauffeur can make or break a successful limo charter.  A great limo service will pay special attention to whom they hire and what they will require to be a part of their limo staff.  Chauffeurs have highly stressful jobs.  They are required to keep their passengers safe and sound at all times and to assure they are on-time and comfortable at each stop.  Through all of this, they need to be well groomed and maintain a smile on their face…not easy!  A chauffeur is an important liaison between company and client.

EXTRAS

Many limo services will offer added amenities/extras for booking their service.  These extras can include champagne, beverages, candies, coffee, newspapers, direct TV, internet service and spacious seating.  Be sure to ask for anything additional upfront and don’t hesitate to request it.  At the end of the day, a great limo service will do whatever it takes to assure your ride is a perfect one.
