How much does it cost?
Factors that affect the price of limo rental service include the type of vehicle to be used, the occasion, the number of rental hours, the size of the party and the time of year to name a few. The cost varies from city to city depending on what kind of vehicle you’ll be using. Say, a stretch limo service starts at $50 whilst an SUV limousine in New York could cost as much as $300. Specialty vehicles, such as an SUV limo in Westchester County, normally cost more than the standard limousine. Generally, limousines are rented by the hour.
What are the types of limousines?
The six types of limos are luxury sedans – Lincoln Town Cars or Cadillacs, Stretch Sedans, 6-passenger stretch limos, 8-passenger stretch limos, 10-passenger super stretch limos, and 12-18 passenger super stretch limos and stretch specialty vehicles (SUV’s). The general rule in choosing what type of limousine would accommodate your party is subtracting 2 people at the most from the vehicle rating for maximum comfort.
What are the things included in a typical limo service?
First thing you have to know when making a reservation is the all-inclusive price. Not all companies offer extensive price listings and billing methods that you might be surprised when you get the total fare cost. Common rip-offs are extra charges like highway taxes (nonexistent), fuel surcharges and beverages among other miscellaneous charges. It’s best to know the all-inclusive price, usually exclusive of sales tax, especially when you’re renting for a third party – wedding couple or youngsters celebrating homecoming. Now that’s a good thing to remember the next time you’re asked to rent wedding limos in Rockland County.
When do rental charges start?
Again, this varies by location and by company. For most companies, charges begin at pick-up time. As for the remaining others, rental charges are based on travel time. It’s best to clear things with your limousine company to know their exact charging policy.
There are cases when you are not in your vehicle within the duration of the rental (i.e. concerts, bar-hopping) but you still have to pay for the rental time. Rest assured your vehicle would not be used elsewhere, no matter how long the interval is between drop-off and pick-up.
How much tip do I give to the driver?
Standard tip is 20% of the total fare, same with waiters or bartenders. Feel free to tip more if the driver’s performance exceeded your expectations.
