Welcome to Car Hire Edgware. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website carhireedgware.co.uk and our vehicle rental options. By utilizing our services, you agree to comply with these terms.
Car Hire Agreement
All car rentals are governed by a Rental Agreement issued at the time of booking confirmation or when you collect the vehicle. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your responsibilities associated with the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Vehicle Rental Requirements
- To hire a vehicle from Car Hire in Edgware, you must be at least 21 years old, though age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type. A valid, full driving licence that matches the vehicle category is required, along with proof of identity and current address. Ensure you have valid payment details and a security deposit ready. Additional requirements may be outlined in your Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Terms
- Reservations can be completed via our website, by telephone, or directly at our Edgware office. To confirm your booking, a deposit may be necessary. The remaining balance and a security deposit are usually payable upon vehicle pickup. All charges are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT when applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, ensuring secure transactions through established payment systems.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of collection, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and signed by both parties. The vehicle should be returned in the same condition as at the time of collection, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and may result in additional charges. Please return the vehicle with the same fuel level as collected; otherwise, refueling fees will be applied. Late returns may lead to extra charges, so inform us promptly if a delay is anticipated. You will be responsible for any parking tickets, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during your rental period, along with an applicable administration fee.
Insurance and Liability Details
- All rentals include basic third-party insurance. For comprehensive coverage details and excess amounts, please refer to your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be offered to help minimize your financial liability. It is important to review these options closely. You remain liable for damages or losses up to the excess amount, except when additional insurance applies. Any damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance coverage.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice provided. For precise information, please check your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Uses of Rental Vehicle
- The vehicle must not be used for any illegal activities or purposes. This includes racing, rallying, off-road driving, or any other dangerous activities. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited, as is sub-letting the vehicle or allowing unauthorized drivers. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. Additionally, the vehicle should not be used for purposes beyond its intended design, nor should passenger or weight limits be exceeded. Driving outside the agreed geographical limits requires prior authorization.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
8. Liability Restrictions
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Edgware will not be 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 claims will not exceed the rental amount you paid in the past 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence or fraud.
Edgware Legal Framework
These Terms are regulated by the laws of England and Wales. All disputes will fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the relevant courts in this region.
10. Amendments to Terms
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.
