Welcome to Car Hire Tamworth. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental offerings. By utilizing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Tamworth are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement issued at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance information, applicable charges, and your responsibilities for the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Requirements for Vehicle Rental
- To hire a vehicle in Tamworth, you must be at least 21 years old, though certain vehicle types may have different age requirements, with potential extra charges for drivers under 25. A valid driving licence suitable for the vehicle category is required, held for the duration outlined in the Rental Agreement. Valid identification and proof of your current address must be presented, along with payment details and a security deposit. Additional criteria may be specified in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Process
- Reservations can be arranged via our website, over the phone, or at our Tamworth office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required upon vehicle pickup. All pricing is listed in British Pounds (£) and includes VAT as applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, with secure processing through trusted payment platforms.
4. Collecting and Returning Vehicles
- You must inspect the vehicle thoroughly at collection and report any existing damage immediately. A vehicle condition report will be completed and signed. Return the vehicle in the same condition as collected, allowing for normal wear and tear. New damage will be assessed and charged accordingly. Return the vehicle with the same fuel level as collected. Refueling charges will apply if returned with less fuel. Late returns may incur additional charges. Contact us immediately if you anticipate a late return. You are responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges incurred during the rental period, plus an administration fee.
Insurance and Responsibility
- All rentals come with basic third-party insurance included. Comprehensive coverage details and excess amounts will be outlined in your Rental Agreement. You may have the option to purchase additional insurance to lower your financial liability. It is advisable to review these options thoroughly. You remain liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount, unless additional coverage applies. Any damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms will be your responsibility, regardless of insurance.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice given. For precise information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Usage:
- Use of the vehicle for any unlawful activities is strictly prohibited. This includes racing, off-roading, or other unsafe driving practices. Transporting hazardous materials or substances is not allowed. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is forbidden. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is unacceptable. The vehicle must not be used for purposes it was not intended for, nor should passenger or weight limits be exceeded. Additionally, driving outside of the agreed geographical areas without prior consent is not permitted.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and extra fees.
8. Liability Restrictions
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Tamworth is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, resulting from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the rental amount you paid in the last 12 months.
