Limo in Vancouver BC

Guidelines on how to choose the best limousine for your event? There are many aspects to make a good limo rental experience. Getting the right limo often depends on the type of occasion, number of people, number of hours you’ll need and how far you’re going. Most companies will need to know if this is for a wedding, concert, prom, birthday party or maybe an anniversary – and they often specialize in certain events to deliver the best possible experience. The more details you can provide, the better the value and service you’ll receive.

Look for signs of trouble: According to the USA Limo Guide, “The law requires all limousine rental companies to arrange for proper private hire insurance.” But “some companies evade insuring their vehicles and occupants as its an expensive overhead.” And, of course, the chauffeurs need to have chauffeur’s licenses. Ask for proof of both. Other omens… Avoid a limo company that requires more than a 50 percent deposit. For my wife’s present, one company demanded full payment in advance. I said thanks-but-no-thanks and hung up. USA Limo Guide says, “Generally, a deposit of 20-50 percent of the total rental fee is required by credit or debit card.”

Do I Have to tip the driver, and if so, how much? YES! Your driver is working in the service industry just like a waiter or bartender, but assumes a much more responsible role. The standard tip is 20% of the total fare. If you feel your driver has performed in an exceeding manner, you can tip more. Some companies will AUTOMATICALLY include the gratuity (tip) in their total price quote. When making reservations, always ask if GRATUITY is included in the total price. If not, you should budget an extra twenty percent towards your total bill for driver gratuity.

Get everything in writing: While you are booking your limo service, ensure that service providers provide everything like time, locations to vehicles, in writing. The more specific your requirements, the more precise the contract needs to be. Also, make sure that you understand all terms and conditions before putting a seal on the deal. This is very essential when you book a wedding limo service.
