I have two kids (ages 6 and 9) and work early shifts, so I can't do the school run myself. The school is 12 km away. I'm looking at hiring a private driver 5 days a week, 30 minutes each way. I've heard quotes ranging wildly. What's a fair monthly budget for this in a mid-sized city like Almelo, and what should I watch out for when choosing someone?
1% fee. Verified providers respond in under an hour. First 3 tasks free.
For a regular school run like yours, expect €700–1,100/month depending on driver experience, vehicle condition, and whether they combine trips with other families. Costs break down roughly: hourly rate (€18–25/hour for local driving), vehicle maintenance, and fuel. In smaller cities like Almelo, rates are typically lower than Amsterdam/Rotterdam. Key things to check: valid driving licence, liability insurance, background check (especially with children), and a written agreement on cancellation terms. Many parents split costs with neighbours to reduce expense. Post your job on AstraNL to compare local verified drivers and get transparent quotes.
