Limo service from Manchester airport to downtown Boston
 
Does anyone have a good recommendation for a car service to get us from Manchester Airport to Copley Square? We will have several large bags (moving our daughter into her dorm room) and would like to avoid renting a car.

There's a long list of limo and car services on the Manchester Airport website.

I think you will find a car service prohibitively expensive versus renting a car.

I've gotten some estimates that average around $100, which seems reasonable considering the time saved from renting and turning in a car. I'm just wondering which companies are reputable, which should be avoided, etc.

Here's a link to ground transportation at the Manchester, NH airport: http://www.flymanchester.com/transportation/. Daughter did a bus from North or South Station last year home from college, but took really long time. $100 sounds like a bargain, it was about a 90 min drive to the western Boston suburbs (Waltham).

This probably won't help for a move, but there is a free bus from the Manchester airport for plane ticket holders. It goes from MHT to Anderson Station in Woburn, and then Sullivan Sq. stop on the Orange line in Boston.

Thank you all for the suggestions. We have a quote from Alcott Limo for $82 (not including tip) for a LeSabre -- I think we'll all fit in. Has anyone had any experience with this company?

Just a follow up -- we used them, they showed up on time, the driver was very nice and we didn't have any problems. I recommend this company.
