Welcome to Car Hire Sidcup. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental services. By using our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Sidcup are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement presented at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This document outlines 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 in Sidcup
Requirements for Vehicle Rental
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Sidcup, you must be at least 21 years old, though age requirements may vary based on the vehicle type, with extra fees for drivers under 25. A valid full driving license appropriate to the vehicle category is required, as well as current identification and proof of address. You will need to provide valid payment information, including a security deposit, and meet any other specifications outlined in the Rental Agreement.
3. Reservations and Payments
- Reservations can be made via our website, by telephone, or directly at our Sidcup office. A deposit may be required to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are usually collected at the time of vehicle pickup. All charges are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT as applicable. We accept all major credit and debit cards, with secure processing through trusted payment systems.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Sidcup, a thorough inspection is required. Any pre-existing damage must be reported immediately, and a vehicle condition report will be completed and signed by both parties. It is important to return the vehicle in the same condition as it was collected, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charges applied accordingly. The vehicle should be returned with the same fuel level as at collection; refueling charges will be incurred for any discrepancies. Late returns may attract extra fees, so please notify us promptly if a delay is anticipated. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during the rental period, along with a small administration fee.
5. Coverage and Responsibility
- All car rentals come with basic third-party insurance included. For comprehensive details regarding coverage and excess amounts, please refer to your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to minimize your financial responsibilities. You will be liable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess amount, unless you opt for further coverage. Damage resulting from negligence or misuse remains your responsibility, irrespective of insurance provisions.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
Cancellation and amendment policies depend on the type of booking and the notice period provided. For precise information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges. It is advisable to review these details to avoid unexpected fees.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses in Sidcup
- Prohibited activities include using the vehicle for illegal purposes or engaging in racing, rallying, off-roading, or other dangerous maneuvers. Transporting hazardous materials and sub-letting the vehicle are not permitted. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, exceeding passenger limits, or operating outside designated geographical areas without authorization is also prohibited.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
