Car Hire Terms of Service

Rental Terms

All vehicle rentals in Ashton-under-Lyne are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement that you will receive upon booking confirmation or when picking up your vehicle. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your responsibilities related to the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will be the prevailing document.

Eligibility Criteria

Renting a vehicle in Ashton-under-Lyne requires:

• To hire a vehicle in Ashton-under-Lyne, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may vary depending on the vehicle type. Drivers under 25 may incur additional charges. A full driving licence appropriate for the vehicle category is required, along with valid identification and proof of your current address. You will also need to provide valid payment information and a security deposit, as well as meet any additional requirements outlined in the Rental Agreement.

Booking and Payment Details

• Reservations can be made via our website, over the phone, or directly at our Ashton-under-Lyne office. To confirm your booking, a deposit may be necessary. Payment in full, along with a security deposit, is generally required upon vehicle pickup. All pricing is displayed in British Pounds (£) and includes VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, ensuring secure transactions through trusted payment processors.

4. Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off

• At the time of vehicle collection in Ashton-under-Lyne, it is your responsibility to conduct a thorough inspection and report any existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be generated and must be signed by you. Please return the vehicle in the same condition as received, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and may result in additional charges. Ensure the vehicle is returned with the same fuel level as at collection; refueling fees will be applied if the fuel level is lower. Late returns can result in extra charges, so please notify us as soon as possible if you expect to be late. You are liable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges that occur during your rental period, along with an administration fee.

Insurance and Liability in Ashton-under-Lyne

• All rentals include basic third-party insurance. Comprehensive details regarding coverage and excess amounts can be found in your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be offered to help lower your financial responsibility. It’s advisable to examine these options closely. You are liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount unless further insurance is purchased. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, regardless of the insurance coverage.

6. Modifications and Cancellations

Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice period provided. Please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement for precise information. If you cancel late or do not show up, additional charges may apply.
