Welcome to Car Hire Waterlooville. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental services. By using our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Waterlooville are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement provided at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This document outlines the relevant terms, conditions, insurance details, and your obligations concerning the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the latter will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a Vehicle in Waterlooville
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Waterlooville, you must be at least 21 years old, though age requirements may differ based on vehicle type. A valid, full driving licence for the appropriate vehicle category is necessary, with a minimum holding period as outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additionally, you will need to present valid identification and proof of your current address. Payment details and a security deposit are also required, along with any other conditions specified in the Rental Agreement.
3. Reservations and Payments
- Bookings for car rentals can be made easily via our website, over the phone, or at our Waterlooville office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your reservation. Full payment, along with a security deposit, is usually required at the time of vehicle pick-up. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include applicable VAT. We accept major credit and debit cards, ensuring secure transactions through trusted payment partners.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- Upon collecting your vehicle, conduct a thorough inspection and promptly report any pre-existing damage. A vehicle condition report will be completed and signed to document this. When returning the vehicle, it must be in the same condition as when collected, subject to normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged accordingly. Ensure the fuel level matches what was provided at the start of your rental, as refueling charges apply for discrepancies. If you anticipate a late return, contact us as soon as possible, as additional fees may apply. You will also be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges incurred during your rental period, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability in Waterlooville
- All car rentals include basic third-party insurance, with full coverage details and excess amounts specified in the Rental Agreement. You may have options for additional insurance to lessen your financial responsibility. Please review these options thoroughly. You will be liable for any damages or losses up to the insurance excess, unless additional coverage is purchased. Damage resulting from negligence or misuse remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance.
6. Cancellations and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the booking type and the notice period provided. For detailed information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges, which will be reflected in your final billing.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses
- The vehicle may not be used for any illegal activities or purposes. This includes racing, off-roading, or any other dangerous driving. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting or allowing unauthorized drivers is not permitted. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, exceeding weight or passenger limits, and operating outside designated geographical areas without authorization are also unacceptable.
Breach of terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
8. Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Waterlooville will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses, including loss of profits, data, or business, resulting from your use of our services. Our total liability for claims will not exceed the rental amount you paid in the previous 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury arising from negligence or fraud.
9. Local Legal Framework
These Terms are regulated by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be exclusively handled by the courts in these jurisdictions.
10. Terms Updates
We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Changes take effect immediately upon posting on our website. Continued use of our services indicates your acceptance of the revised Terms.
