There are plenty of limousine services out there but not all them would make for a good choice. So if you don’t want to be at the mercy of crummy car service, here are a few handy tips to help you pick a winner:
Read reviews
A bad review or two might not be conclusive enough. But a ton of them could point to the truth and save you the time and trouble you would’ve spent on putting that on your list of prospective rental companies.
Check their site
There’s something to be said for a professional, well-made site. But if it’s riddled with grammar mistakes, with the company’s contact information hard to spot or worse there aren’t any contact numbers at all, those are obvious red flags right there.
Clear the basics
Does the company have valid certification? Are the drivers licensed? Are the cars and drivers commercially insured? Also, make sure the limo has been inspected by the DOT and approved by the DPU. They must be registered for commercial purposes in the city or state you plan to move around in.
Look up experience
How long have they been in the business? 5 years in the industry is a good benchmark. It’s also an indication of how a good a company’s service is, especially if it’s been able to survive the full five years or more. With plenty of businesses folding after the first year, this is already an achievement.
See their fleet
How many vehicles do they have? The smaller their fleet is, the fewer choices you have. This can make scheduling a pickup with the company tough since you’ll have less available options to work with. Also, if you need to adjust your dates, there’s a big chance that you might not be able to book another one, if you’re only relying on a small fleet. The average fleet has five, but the more vehicles you can choose from, the more flexible your choices can be.
Comparison tools
There are plenty of online comparison tools you can use to help you determine which one offers the best cost, features, amenities and services. Factor in everything. Don’t let cost be the only deciding factor in your buying decision.
