Limousine
Tips
Get Ratings and Reviews of the service you plan to use -- we have that!
Ask to see the company's vehicles -- Many of our service providers have pictures of their vehicles posted online with their company listings.
Get A Signed Contract for Important Events
Ask About Insurance and Permits -- All limousines are required to carry commercial insurance and proper permits.
Ask About Industry Associations and Check with the BBB -- Limo Companies who belong to industry associations usually must abide by special insurance regulations and service rules. Reputable associations such as the National Limousine Association
and the local livery association are good indications that your service provider does their due diligence. The Better Business Bureau also is a good research source- complaints about limousine services are not far behind auto mechanics complaints.
What should we expect to pay? Most limousines rent between $50 - $150 per hour. In addition, most limousine services require a minimum hourly booking. Unfortunately, you cannot rent a limousine for one hour. In high-demand periods such as the spring time (with proms & weddings) hourly minimums can go beyond 6 hours.
Do we pay for the limo time while we attend our event? Yes... If you expect for your limo to be available when you are ready to leave your event. Some companies may offer a "split" - just a rental to-and-from your destination with no charge for waiting time in between. However, minimum hourly booking requirements still apply.
Can I Rent A Limo For 1 Hour? No. Most companies require a minimum 3 hour booking to rent a limousine. During prom season, expect this minimum to increase; as much as 6 to 8 hours minimum.
Are there any discounts for my prom? Sorry, but NO. The demand for limousines during the spring exceeds the supply and this shortage causes an increase in prices and hourly minimums.
