Welcome to Thamesmead Car Hire Services. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental services. By utilizing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Thamesmead are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle pickup. This agreement outlines specific terms, conditions, insurance provisions, fees, and your obligations related to the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a Vehicle in Thamesmead
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Thamesmead, you must be at least 21 years old, although some vehicle types may have different age restrictions. A valid full driving licence, appropriate for the vehicle category, must be held for the duration specified in the Rental Agreement. Additionally, you will need to present valid identification and proof of current address, along with payment information and a security deposit. Please check the Rental Agreement for any further requirements.
Booking and Payments in Thamesmead
- Reservations can be arranged via our website, by telephone, or directly at our Thamesmead office. To confirm your booking, a deposit may be required. Full payment and a security deposit are generally due upon vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, ensuring secure transactions through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection and promptly report any pre-existing damage. A condition report will be filled out and must be signed by both parties. The vehicle should be returned in the same condition as it was collected, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged accordingly. Please ensure the vehicle is returned with the same fuel level as when collected; additional refueling charges will apply if the fuel level is lower. Late returns may incur extra fees, so please inform us as soon as possible if you anticipate a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during your rental period, along with a small administration fee.
Insurance and Liability in Thamesmead
- All rentals include basic third-party insurance, with full details and excess amounts outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to limit your liability. Review these options thoroughly, as you will be responsible for damage or loss up to the excess amount unless further coverage is purchased. Negligence or misuse will be your responsibility, regardless of insurance coverage.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
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 no-shows may incur additional charges.
Prohibited 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 substances, exceeding weight or passenger limits, or operating outside designated geographical areas without prior consent is strictly forbidden.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
