Advices on how to choose the best limousine for your needs? There are many things to consider to get a good limo rental experience. Get the right ride: Often times, the right vehicle can make all the difference. A stretch Hummer for your next bachelor party or a classic antique Rolls Royce for riding off in style from the wedding. Ensure that the vehicle your getting has the space, features and look for your next event. Try to book a vehicle that has room for at least one to two more people than are in your party. Some companies provide music (radio or satellite radio), so ask in advance or be prepared to take your iPod or a mix CD with enough music to last the whole ride. Also ask about features like the seating arrangement and luggage capacity for large group vehicles.
Travel with five friends: Most limo services charge by car, not by person. And they offer six-passenger, eight-passenger, and/or 10-passenger cars. Since the six-passenger cars are cheaper, you’ll get the most for your money by filling one of those. You might also score some deals if you suggest you don’t mind an older vehicle if it means saving money – as long as it’s in good condition. (See below for checking on that.) When I called several limo places for my wife’s Christmas present, some tried to cajole me into renting a Hummer limo, or an “extra-stretch” limo. I knew the prices would skyrocket, so I didn’t even let them quote me a price. A limo ride is special enough. I don’t need to double the price. Speaking of…
Why can’t I find a limousine for only a one hour rental? Most companies require a minimum 2 or 3 hour booking to rent the vehicle. This is due to the large expense and cost involved in securing and maintaining the vehicles. The average limousine can run around $70,000-$110,000 new! A one-hour rental is simply not cost effective because the vehicle is only in ‘paid-service’ for one hour; however actual vehicle run time may be more than 2 hours. Other costs that make a 1-hour rental not possible is vehicle preparation time and driver salary. In addition, during prom or other high demand season, minimum hourly booking requirements may increase to 5-8 hours due to the overwhelming demand for limousines. You are more likely to get struck by lightning than getting a limousine rental for 1 or 2 hours during prom or special event season. Some companies may offer special exceptions to this rule depending on fleet availability and their current scheduling considerations.
Book Ahead of Time: While you are planning your wedding especially in peak season, make sure you book the ride with time to spare because certainly, you don’t want to find yourself locked out of reservations for the day. In Toronto, spring and early summer is the peak of the season for hiring wedding limo service. Most wedding limousine service companies have hourly minimums on Friday and Saturday nights.
