Corporate Frequently Asked Questions

Questions? We've got you covered.

That is a big question with a wide range of answers. Vehicle size, number of hours and distance of travel will all impact pricing. Our Chauffeured limousine services can range anywhere from $60-$200 per hour depending on the details. Airport and daily transfer services are often priced flat rate and according to the details provided. However, the Brentwood Livery goal is to reduce planning workload and provide the opportunity to decompress or be productive while we handle the stress. Our aim being to provide an unforgettable experience where value exceeds expense.

When hiring a limousine service you should consider not only the price but the type of experience you expect to enjoy. The price you pay should include positive engagement throughout the entire experience from booking to follow up to ensure your experience was exemplary. Much like renting a hotel room, price will reflect the level of service and amenities. However, differing from the comfort of a hotel room bed you are potentially trusting someone with confidential information, such as travel schedules, personal location details, proprietary info and ultimately, your stress level and your safety. Shopping simply by low price means compromises in the reliability and cleanliness of a vehicle or sacrifices in the concierge chauffeured experience.

Brentwood has engaged events both large and small. Our experience ranges from looking after 3,500 VIP concert guests over two days, to attending to the needs of world renowned keynote speakers and officials to serving all attendees of the conference. Our on-site logistics management and technology keep the host event team informed in real-time. We have a very strong reputation for detail driven luxury service thanks to our excellent event team and our experienced chauffeurs who are specifically trained in event management, not just driving.

All Brentwood chauffeurs are vetted, screened and have completed a four part hiring process with 30-50 hours of initial rigorous training. In class, in car and ride along instruction are required before a candidate is permitted to chauffeur. Our corporate event trained chauffeurs have received specialized instruction before they are entrusted with your corporate event.
