Welcome to Car Hire Wolverhampton. These Terms of Service outline your rights and obligations when using our website and vehicle rental services. By accessing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This document outlines essential terms, conditions, insurance coverage, applicable charges, and your obligations regarding the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the latter will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a vehicle requires:
- To hire a vehicle in Wolverhampton, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type, with potential extra fees for drivers under 25. A valid full driving licence specific to the vehicle category is required, held for the duration stated in the Rental Agreement. Valid identification and proof of your current address must be presented. Additionally, valid payment details and a security deposit are necessary, along with any other specific requirements outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Details
- Reservations can be arranged via our website, by phone, or directly at our Wolverhampton office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. The remaining balance and security deposit are generally payable upon vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment processors.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of collection, a thorough inspection of the vehicle is required. It is important to report any existing damage immediately to ensure accurate documentation. A vehicle condition report will be completed and signed by both parties. The vehicle should be returned in the same condition as when it was collected, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated, and charges will be applied as necessary. Make sure to return the vehicle with the same fuel level as it was provided; refueling charges will apply if the fuel level is lower. Late returns may incur extra fees, so please inform us right away if a delay is anticipated. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges that occur during your rental period, along with a processing fee.
Insurance and Liability Overview
- Basic third-party insurance is included with every rental in Wolverhampton. Comprehensive details regarding coverage and excess amounts can be found in your Rental Agreement. You may have the option to purchase additional insurance to lower your financial liability. It is important to review these options thoroughly. You are liable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess unless you have opted for additional coverage. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, irrespective of any insurance.
Cancellation and Amendments
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice period provided. For precise information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Uses of Rental Vehicle
- The vehicle must not be used for any unlawful activities. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or engaging in other dangerous practices. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. The vehicle should only be used for its intended purposes and within the designated passenger and weight limits. Operating outside the agreed geographical boundaries requires prior authorization.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and extra fees.
Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Wolverhampton is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, resulting from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claim will not exceed the rental amount you paid in the previous 12 months.
