Welcome to Car Hire Upminster. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental services. By utilizing our offerings, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Upminster are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This agreement outlines specific terms, conditions, insurance details, applicable charges, and your responsibilities for the rental period. In any case of discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the latter will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a Vehicle in Upminster
- To hire a vehicle from Car Hire in Upminster, you must be at least 21 years old, though age restrictions may vary based on the vehicle type. A valid full driving licence, appropriate for the vehicle category, is required and should have been held for the minimum duration stated in the Rental Agreement. Please provide valid identification and proof of your current address, along with payment information and a security deposit. Any additional requirements will be detailed in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be made via our website, by phone, or directly at our Upminster office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are usually required at the time of vehicle collection. All prices are quoted in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, with secure processing through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection, you are required to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be generated and must be signed by both parties. Ensure the vehicle is returned in the same condition as it was received, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged as necessary. The vehicle should also be returned with the same fuel level as when collected; otherwise, refueling fees will apply. Late returns may incur extra charges, so please contact us if you anticipate a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges that occur during your rental period, along with an administration fee.
5. Liability and Insurance
- Basic third-party insurance is included with all car rentals in Upminster. Full details regarding coverage and excess amounts are outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to lower your financial liability. Review these options carefully, as you will be responsible for any damage or loss up to the excess amount, unless further insurance is purchased. Any damage resulting from negligence or misuse remains your liability, regardless of insurance coverage.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on your booking type and the notice period provided. For precise details, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges.
