About BiMS
Built on Trust. Driven by Detail.
Luxury group transportation rooted in Hancock County, Maine — where every mile is a reflection of who we are.
BiMS was founded by Bendigo Binns, a certified butler with nearly three decades in hospitality at the highest level. His career took him to the Olympics, Formula One, the Ryder Cup, Wimbledon, and Royal Ascot, to name a few — directing guest experiences and looking after royals and dignitaries around the world. He came to Mount Desert Island to oversee a private home, where the standard was simple: anticipate what's needed before anyone has to ask.
That standard is what BiMS brings to the road. We operate a fleet of premium Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans — maintained to an exacting standard and appointed for comfort. Whether we're moving a wedding party through the fog of an early June morning or delivering guests to the Bar Harbor waterfront, the experience is the same: quiet, precise, and unhurried.
We don't take every job. We take the right ones — and we do them exceptionally well.
