Welcome to Car Hire Kings Norton. 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 are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or when collecting your vehicle. This agreement outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance information, fees, and your obligations related to the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a vehicle requires:
- To hire a vehicle from Car Hire in Kings Norton, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type. Drivers under 25 may incur additional fees. A valid driving licence, appropriate for the vehicle category and held for the specified duration, is required. Identification and proof of residence must be presented, along with valid payment details and a security deposit. Any further requirements will be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Process
- Reservations can be made via our website, by telephone, or directly at our Kings Norton location. A booking deposit may be necessary to confirm your reservation. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required at the time of vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT as applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, with transactions secured through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection, a thorough inspection is required to identify any pre-existing damage, which must be reported immediately. A vehicle condition report will be completed and signed by both parties. It is expected that the vehicle will be returned in the same condition as received, aside from normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged appropriately. The vehicle should be returned with the same fuel level as when it was collected; refueling charges will apply if it is returned with less fuel. Late returns may result in additional fees, so please inform us right away if a late return is anticipated. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during your rental, along with a corresponding administration fee.
Insurance and Liability Overview
- All rentals include basic third-party insurance, with full coverage details and excess amounts outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to limit your financial responsibility. It is advisable to review these options thoroughly. You remain liable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess, except where additional insurance applies. Damage resulting from negligence or misuse is your responsibility, irrespective of insurance coverage.
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 fees.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited vehicle uses include:
- The vehicle must not be used for illegal activities or purposes. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or any other hazardous driving. Transporting dangerous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting to unauthorized individuals or allowing unapproved drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. Additionally, the vehicle should not be used beyond its intended purpose, including exceeding passenger or weight limits. Any travel outside of the specified geographical area requires prior authorization.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental termination and extra fees.
