Cheap LimousinesA lot of people look for cheap limousines because they're looking for a deal which is fair enough. But they need to be wary. Limo companies that offer cheap limousines for hire are often companies that have bought cheap limousines in the first place. These can be limos that are ten years old and run by one man bands, or even on a part time basis. That doesn't necessarily mean that there is anything wrong with them but it is clear that these operators don't have the same overheads as the bigger guys who have to finance much newer vehicles such as the Hummer limos and the Chrysler 300 "Baby Bentley" limos. Part time and smaller operators can also keep their costs down where they keep their vehicles on a friend's or relaitive's premises and run their office from home. All these factors give the smaller operators a huge advantage when it comes to offering cheap limousines for hire. So there's a clear choice. If it's purely cheap limousines you're looking for there's your answer and, as we said earlier, that's fair enough. However, more often than not, it's that same old cliche - you get what you pay for. What we find, though, is that it's not so much people looking for cheap limousines but rather value for money, as they certainly don't want to be throwing their money away ! So you have to ask yourself what you really want and if it is value for money cheap limousines may not always be the answer. The good news is that ther are ways of finding cheap limousines for hire without compromising on quality but you've got to be clear about what you can do and when. Here are a few ideas you can think about. If it's a children's party you're much more likely to find cheap limousines for hire on a week night, or even on a Sunday. Perhaps the kids could be collected from school and taken on a "cruise", then on to hamburger joint or pizza parlour before returning to one of the parents' houses. Another good way of finding cheap limousines for hire is when you are going out locally so you can hire a limo to go one way only. That way you have all the fun of being picked up in a stretch limo and going for a short cruise before being dropped off at your destination. Then later you can make alternative arrangements to get home without having to incur the costs of tying up a limo at the end of the night. If you still need a return you might be able to negotiate a good deal if you work around your operator. For example he might say he'll do you a really good deal if you return at 11pm, or 1am as he can fulfil another commitment first or afterwards. The time of day is another factor which will determine whether or not you can find cheap limousines for hire. If it's a special occasion why not do something in the daytime such as a special lunch, shopping or afternoon tea at one of those fabulous city hotels. These sorts of trips are very popular with limousine companies as it frees up their limos for the evening, so it gives you a good chance of finding a special deal.
