Welcome to Bridgwater Car Hire. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental offerings. By using 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 at the time of vehicle pickup. This agreement outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance information, applicable charges, and your responsibilities related to the rental. In the event of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the terms of the Rental Agreement will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria
Rental Vehicle Requirements
- To hire a vehicle in Bridgwater, drivers 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, is required, along with proof of identity and current address. Valid payment information and a security deposit are also necessary. Additional requirements may be specified in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payments Guide
- Reservations can be made via our website, by calling us, or by visiting our Bridgwater location directly. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. The total payment and a security deposit are usually required upon vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept all major credit and debit cards, processed through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- Upon collecting your vehicle, it is essential to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damages without delay. A vehicle condition report will be completed and signed at this time. When returning the vehicle, it should be in the same condition as when it was collected, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damages will be evaluated and charged appropriately. The vehicle must also be returned with the same fuel level as at collection; otherwise, refueling charges will be applied. Late returns may result in extra fees, so please contact us as soon as possible if you anticipate a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges incurred during the rental period, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability in Bridgwater
- All rentals come with basic third-party insurance. You will find comprehensive coverage details and excess amounts outlined in your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to limit your financial responsibility. Review these options thoroughly, as you will be liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount unless further insurance is secured. Damage resulting from negligence or misuse remains your responsibility, even if covered by insurance.
Cancellation Policy
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice given. For detailed information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Note that late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses
- Usage of the vehicle is strictly limited to lawful purposes. This includes avoiding activities such as racing, rallying, or off-roading, as well as the transport of hazardous materials. The vehicle must not be sub-let or operated by unauthorized drivers. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is prohibited. Adhere to designated passenger limits and geographical boundaries.
Violation of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Bridgwater will not be responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, arising from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims is limited to the amount paid for the rental in the past 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence or for fraud.
9. Local Legal Framework
These Terms are regulated by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be resolved exclusively in the courts of England and Wales.
10. Terms Updates
We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Changes take effect immediately upon posting on our website. Continued use of our services indicates your acceptance of the revised Terms.
