When you are looking to hire a limo company, you want to make sure you hire one that meets or ideally exceeds, your expectations. While you’re shopping around for a chauffeured ride, you need to ask questions. Here’s a list of what you should ask before hiring a transportation company.

1. Do you use your own cars?

There’s a growing trend of web sites and apps that are basically just marketing companies designed to sell limo services. They will hook you up with a limo company, one that likely adds a commission to your quote to pay the marketing.

2. What do you do to ensure my safety?

The most diligent companies, like Boston Coach, have a variety of safety precautions that they go through. There is a multitude of state and federal guidelines that are required to ensure that your ride is safe. From background checks and drug screening of the drivers to DOT adherence and commercial liability and collision insurance, you need to make sure that the company puts safety first. Additionally, what insurance coverage do they have? Are you covered if your driver gets in an accident?

3. What services do you offer?

The best companies have an extensive fleet that can fulfill your every need. Whether you’re looking for a party bus for a night out or a ride to that important meeting, make sure the company you hire is experienced in performing the logistics needed for your needs.

4. Do you have references?

Check out online review sites and ask friends. You may also want to check out testimonials online to see what kind of feedback the limo company gets from customers. We’ve got some of our many awesome testimonials right on our website.

5. How are the cars maintained?

It seems obvious but taking care of the fleet is expensive. And unfortunately, smaller struggling companies may try to cut corners in that area. Ask if they have a comprehensive maintenance program.
