Each fleet sets a hub (home base). Quotes use road miles from that hub to the customer pickup.

  • Pickup fee is typically a per-mile rate from the hub to pickup (for example $2 per mile). Some fleets set this to $0.
  • Minimum hours often start at 4 hours for pickups within a free zone (commonly 40 miles). Beyond that, minimum hours can step up (for example +30 minutes for every 5 extra miles).
  • Weekends and holidays can add an hourly surcharge and a higher minimum (for example +$10/hour and a 6-hour minimum). Holiday dates you select in business settings override weekend rules on that date.

Customers see the resulting quote before they reserve. Fleet owners can start from a party-bus preset in Business settings, then change any field to match their own rates.
