What you get with a driver in Chennai
Handled for you
- Punctual daily reporting for office commutes and family travel
- School runs — children delivered safely, speed limits respected, no phone behind the wheel
- Basic vehicle checks: engine oil, coolant, tyre pressure, interiors kept clean
- Daily dusting and wiping so the car is comfortable when you get in
- Household errands — parcels, groceries, the trip to the service centre

You arrange
- Fuel, tolls and parking — paid by the vehicle owner

Before you decide
The questions worth asking before anyone starts in your home — answered here, so nothing catches you off guard later.
Manual or automatic — does it matter?
Yes, say it in the first message. A driver who's only driven hatchbacks shouldn't start with your SUV on a Saturday morning. The car's make and transmission go into the match.
Will he drive my wife and children?
That's the most common use. Polite conduct with family — especially women and children — is checked in references, and you meet him before he ever does the school run.
Does he wash the car?
Daily dusting and interior tidying are standard. A full wash is usually an evening routine agreed between you and him — say it if you want it included.
What if he's late one morning?
Shift hours and reporting time are agreed on day one. Chronic lateness is a replacement matter; a single bad OMR morning is a Chennai matter — you'll have his number to call ahead.
Outstation trips — how do allowances work?
Travel and food allowances for trips are agreed between your family and the driver before the trip, not after. Terms set in advance are the reason outstation drives stay easy.
Can he take the car for servicing?
Yes — dropping and collecting the car from the service centre is a common errand. Insurance and repair decisions remain yours; the logistics are his.
What do you need from us in the first message?
Your locality, the car's make and transmission, daily route or full-time, and the hours. For outstation, the destination and duration. That's enough to check who's free.
