What is a Car Service Contract?
A Car Service Contract is an agreement in which you hire a driver to provide chauffeur services from one location to another. Car Service Contracts (or Personal Driver Agreements) can be for a one-time event or for regular transportation, such as daily rides. The service can include driving business professionals to work, taking children to school, or other similar private transportation needs.
This document addresses services hired from a business, not from individuals. A Work for Hire document or Subcontractor Agreement can be used for that purpose.
When to use a Car Service Contract
- You are providing professional transportation for clients, executives, or employees during business trips.
- You are booking a private car service for weddings, parties, or corporate events.
- You want to be taken to or picked up from the airport.
- You need someone to take you or your employees to and from work daily.
- You are trying to arrange a trusted driver to take children to and from school safely.
