Welcome to Car Hire Maesteg. These Terms of Service outline 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 at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This agreement 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
Requirements for Vehicle Rental
- To hire a vehicle from Car Hire in Maesteg, drivers must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on vehicle type. A valid driving licence appropriate for the vehicle category is required, along with proof of identity and current address. Payment information and a security deposit must also be provided, in addition to any specific requirements outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Details
- Reservations can be made via our website, by telephone, or directly at our Maesteg office. A booking deposit may be necessary to confirm your reservation. The total payment and security deposit are usually required upon collecting your vehicle. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where relevant. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection, it is your responsibility to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and signed by both parties. The vehicle should be returned in the same state as it was collected, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and may result in additional charges. Ensure that the vehicle is returned with the same fuel level as at pickup; refueling charges will apply if the fuel level is lower. Late returns could incur extra fees, so please notify us promptly if you expect to return the vehicle later than scheduled. You will be accountable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during the rental period, along with an administration fee.
Insurance and Responsibility
- All rentals come with standard third-party insurance. Comprehensive coverage information and excess amounts are outlined in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be offered to lower your financial exposure. It is advisable to review these thoroughly. You are liable for any damage or loss up to the specified insurance excess, unless additional insurance is purchased. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms is your responsibility, regardless of your insurance coverage.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice provided. For specific details, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Uses of Rental Vehicle
- The vehicle must not be used for any unlawful activities. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or engaging in other hazardous driving practices. Transporting dangerous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting or allowing unauthorized individuals to drive the vehicle is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. The vehicle should only serve its intended purpose and must adhere to passenger and weight limits. Operating the vehicle outside the agreed geographical boundaries requires prior authorization.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental termination and extra fees.
Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Maesteg is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, resulting from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the amount you paid for your rental in the last 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury arising from negligence or fraud.
9. Local Legal Framework
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Disputes will fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the local courts.
Terms Update Policy
We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Changes will take effect as soon as they are published on our website. Your ongoing use of our services indicates acceptance of the revised Terms.
