Welcome to Car Hire Hounslow. These Terms of Service govern your access to our website and vehicle rental offerings. By using our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Hounslow are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance information, fees, and your obligations related to the rental. In the event of a discrepancy between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will apply.
Eligibility Criteria
Rental Requirements in Hounslow
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Hounslow, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type, with extra fees for drivers under 25. A valid driving licence appropriate for the chosen vehicle, held for the minimum duration indicated in the Rental Agreement, is required. You will need to present valid identification and proof of your current address, along with payment information and a security deposit. Additional requirements may be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Process
- Reservations can be made via our website, by telephone, or in person at our Hounslow branch. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. The remaining balance and a security deposit are generally required at the time of vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include applicable VAT. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment processors.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of collection, it is imperative to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle and promptly report any pre-existing damage. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and signed for your records. The vehicle should be returned in the same condition as it was collected, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged as appropriate. Ensure the vehicle is returned with the same fuel level as at collection; otherwise, refueling charges will apply. Late returns may attract additional fees, so please notify us as soon as possible if you foresee a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during your rental, in addition to an administrative fee.
Insurance and Liability Terms
- All rentals include basic third-party insurance. Full coverage information, including excess amounts, can be found in your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to help mitigate your financial liability. Review these options closely. You remain accountable for damages or losses up to the excess amount unless you opt for additional coverage. Any damage resulting from negligence or misuse is your responsibility, regardless of insurance status.
Cancellation and Modifications
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 uses of rental vehicle:
- The vehicle must not be used for any unlawful activities, including racing, rallying, or off-roading. 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. Additionally, using the vehicle for purposes it was not designed for, exceeding passenger or weight limits, and driving outside agreed geographical areas without approval are violations of our terms.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental termination and charges.
Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire in Hounslow 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 is limited to the amount you paid for the rental in the last 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence or fraud.
