Planning a party is fun but planning transportation for your party requires some awareness !
What size party bus do you really need?
Generally the rule of thumb is to increase your head count by 3 to find the right size party bus . Given the fact that federal seating size requirements per passenger are not that large it is wise to reserve a party bus that has 3 to 4 more seats than you need. This added extra space will provide a little extra elbow room for your trip. So if your group size is 23 , consider requesting a 26 or even a 30 passenger party bus if comfort is important to you . If the ride is not that far from your pick up point, choosing a smaller sized bus will still pull off the job as well.
Does your party bus rental provider excel in Event & Special services?
This area is important considering there are many party bus companies that provide services on weekend evenings to groups of nightlife enthusiasts, but how do they handle weddings or Sweet Sixteen ? Questions to ask are:
- Is the agent on the phone seasoned in event planning to handle the logistics on my wedding day?. Chauffeurs will stick to the itinerary on paper but your reservation agent must ensure that all the ” i’s ” are dotted and “t’s” are crossed or else you may have a limousine in front of the brides home when in fact the groomsmen needed to be dropped at the church first.
- Will my drivers be properly suited when he arrives? . Assuming chauffeur dress etiquette is a standard in the limousine industry may offer quite a surprise when everyone in your party is dapper and stunning but your driver pulls up in jeans and a blazer. At LimoRide our chauffeurs are in company uniformed Vests , Suit and Tie .
- Will my bus arrive clean ? Party bus rentals occur mostly on the weekends and chances are your party bus is probably going to be on the road with other guests the night before your reservation day. While this scenario is very common in the bus industry it still begs the demand of a rapid clean down and wash so you receive a fresh smelling, sanitized ( yes I said that) clean bus . Generally at the tail end of a night ,chauffeurs usually want to park the bus and get some rest which can leave a bus lingering of Alcohol smell for the next few hours. At LimoRide our drivers are required to do a general clean down post each ride and as an additional fail-over measure we have a full time detail staff which wash, sweep down , windex and prep buses early in the morning .
Who Are you really hiring your Party Bus from.
Did you just leave a deposit with a middle man or the actual operating company? You would be surprised to learn just how many brokers the party bus and limousine industry are comprised of. While there is nothing wrong with brokerage services you must remain cognizant of the fact that your important details you just explained to the agent will need to be just as diligently translated to the actual operating company and this may lead to communication errors on your day of service.
Dependability and Trust are paramount will remain paramount which means that if you wish to set a time and place to view the bus you are going to rent then the company should have nothing to hide in the process.
