Our Travel Calculator Process
To get the cost of our travel for your event at a place outside of our standard area, we apply a simple formula. We take the total miles from our home office to the scheduled event venue or place. We calculate the round trip total miles and subtract 60. (Based on the no charge 30 miles radius around San Antonio, we subtract those miles from the mileage outside that radius which totals 60.) The remaining number of miles after the subtraction is multiple by $2.00. the ending number is the cost for our travel if driving. We use Google maps to calculate the miles and best roadmap to take on the day of the event.
