Welcome to Brentwood Car Hire. These Terms of Service outline the guidelines for using our website and vehicle rental offerings. By accessing our services, you agree to these terms.
Brentwood Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or when collecting your vehicle. This agreement outlines the applicable terms, conditions, insurance information, fees, and your obligations for the rental period. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a vehicle requires:
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Brentwood, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type, with extra fees applicable for drivers under 25. A valid, full driving licence for the relevant vehicle category is required, along with identification and current address verification. Ensure you have valid payment details and a security deposit ready. Additional requirements may be outlined in your Rental Agreement.
3. Reservations and Payments
- Reservations can be completed via our website, by telephone, or directly at our Brentwood office. A deposit might be necessary to confirm your booking. The total payment and security deposit are usually required upon vehicle pickup. All pricing is listed in British Pounds (£) and includes VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment channels.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Brentwood, it is essential 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. Upon return, the vehicle should be in the same condition as when it was collected, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged accordingly. Ensure the fuel level matches that at collection; refueling fees will be applied if the vehicle is returned with less fuel. Late returns may lead to extra charges, so please inform us promptly if you anticipate a delay. You will also be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges accrued during the rental period, along with an administrative fee.
5. Coverage and Responsibility
- All rentals include basic third-party insurance. Comprehensive coverage information and applicable excess amounts will be outlined in your Rental Agreement. You may have the option to purchase additional insurance to lower your financial responsibility. It is wise to review these options thoroughly. You remain liable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess, unless further insurance is obtained. Any damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, irrespective of insurance coverage.
Cancellation and Modifications
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 Vehicle Uses
- The vehicle must not be used for any illegal activities. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or any other risky pursuits. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited. The vehicle cannot be sub-let or driven by unauthorized individuals. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. Usage must align with the vehicle's intended purpose, and passenger or weight limits must not be exceeded. Additionally, driving outside the designated geographical area requires prior approval.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental termination and extra fees.
8. Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Brentwood 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 amount you paid for the rental in the last 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury due to negligence or for fraudulent actions.
