School Ball Limo Hire Perth Made Easy
1. The first and most important tip is to get organised early - remember there will be lots of
students trying to hire a limo for the same school ball date as you. In Perth during the peak
ball season it is not uncommon for 5 balls to be held on the same night. If you leave it too
late you will find it difficult to secure a booking.
2 Sorting out who is going to be in your limo can cause a few dramas trying to include
everyone and deciding on your limo group. Currently in Perth there are 2 - 54 seater
limousines so there are plenty of options available.
When talking to limousine hire operators ask how many passengers the limousine is licensed to carry, to ensure you are not overloading and putting your safety at risk.
3 Once you have a rough idea who is going to be in your limo, appoint 1 or 2 people in your
group to do the phoning/emailing around to Perth limousine hire companies and to make
the booking and collection of money. Use our 'email all function' to quickly get quotes and
date availability from limousine operators - this will save you an enormous amount of time.
(The email all button is at the top of each limousine hire cateogory page in green writting.)
4 A great way of communicating between everyone in your limo group is to create a private
facebook event for your limo booking group. By doing this you can post links to photos of
the limos, the hire business website etc and everyone is kept up to date with the plans and
each individual can confirm they want to be included in the arrangements y saying they are
attending the event.
5. Get a firm commitment from everyone in your school ball limo group by asking for the
money up front or at least 50% deposit before paying the deposit to hold your
limousine hire date from your chosen Limousine hire company. This way the organisers
are not left out of pocket if someone pulls out. If circumstances change and one of the
group members has paid and changes their mind it is up to them to find a replacement
or lose their money.
6. Get a firm contract with the limousine hire company and ask for a receipt.
7. Keep in contact with the limousine hire company. If you have made a deposit and not
received a receipt or confirmation of your booking within a fortnight CONTACT them to
ensure they have processed your booking.
8. When making your booking ask the limousine hire company about possible transport
after the ball to any post ball functions. Limousine hire companies in Perth have varying
policies with regards to this.
9. Plan ahead and decide where the limousine or limousines will park to safely collect you
from your designated pick up point. Limousines need space and lots of it - perhaps
reserve a parking area for them. In Perth we have many cul-de-sacs and ways etc which
can make it quite difficult for some Limousines to turn around etc especially when there
are several limousines are the pres and lots of cars etc.
10. To ensure you enjoy the music for your limo ride your safest option is to make your own
CD and give it to your limo driver, as not all Ipods dock to car stereos, even with Ipod
docking. Be mindful of offensive language, verbally or in your music.
