Limousine Rentals Costs

The time of year that you are renting a limousine will dictate how much money you will be paying. It doesn't seem fair, does it? However, May and June you will pay much higher prices to rent a limousine than you will in March or April. That is because Proms and weddings take place in these months and the limousines are in high demand in the peak season. If you are looking at renting a limousine to take your girlfriend out on a special date, try to do it during off peak limousine season so that you can get a better deal.

The time of week that you need the limousine will affect the price that you pay too. It will always cost you more money to rent a limousine Friday, Saturday or Sunday than it will to rent one Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. If you are trying to get tickets to a concert, plan on getting the dates that will be less expensive to rent the limousine. Whether it is Tuesday or Saturday night, arriving at a special event in a limousine is still pretty impressive.

If you are trying to rent a limousine in a major metropolitan city you will be paying more than if you live in the suburbs. Of course, the service that you are requesting plays a part in the overall pricing too. If you live in the suburbs, but want the limousine to take you into the major city, you will pay for that plus whatever road tolls apply to the trip. 

The type of limousine you rent will affect your price. Maybe you don't really need a stretch limo. Sometimes a black sedan will suffice, especially if it is going to be used to take just two people to the airport. You won't need a limousine for that type of ride, but some people will still want that. You will be paying more money for a larger limousine. The distance that the limousine will have to travel will factor into the cost of the rental.

Some limousine services charge flat rates for certain services. You will get quoted a specific price for airport shuttles within a specified range of mileage. Proms may get one quote while weddings will get a different quote. This has to do with how many trips the driver has to wait and how many hours the driver will be needed for the day or evening. 

If you are planning an evening out on the town, try to get another couple to go in with you on the limousine. This way you all get a special treat and it will only cost half as much since you'll be splitting the bill. This can work for proms too. It might be cheaper to rent a stretch limousine for five couples than to rent five limousines for five separate couples. It pays to make phone calls and get different quotes. Choose the best scenario for your budget.
