Welcome to Bilston Car Hire. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website carhirebilston.co.uk and our vehicle rental offerings. By accessing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals are governed by a Rental Agreement provided during booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This document outlines 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 Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a vehicle requires:
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Bilston, you must be at least 21 years old; age restrictions may differ based on the vehicle type, with potential extra fees for drivers under 25. A valid full driving licence for the appropriate vehicle category is required, along with identification and proof of your current address. Additionally, valid payment details and a security deposit must be provided. Please review the Rental Agreement for any further requirements.
3. Reservations and Payments
- Reservations can be made via our website, over the phone, or at our Bilston office. A deposit may be needed to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required at the time of vehicle collection. All prices are displayed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT as applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Bilston, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and must be signed to document its state. When returning the vehicle, it should be in the same condition as at collection, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and may result in additional charges. Ensure that the fuel level matches that at collection; refueling fees will apply if the vehicle is returned with less fuel. Late returns could incur extra charges, so please inform us promptly if you anticipate a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges accrued during your rental, along with a processing fee.
5. Coverage and Responsibility
- All rentals come with basic third-party insurance included. Full details regarding coverage and excess amounts can be found in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be offered to help lower your financial liability. It is beneficial to review these options thoroughly. You remain liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount, unless additional insurance is purchased. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains 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 accurate details, consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Please be aware that late cancellations or no-shows could incur additional charges.
7. Restricted Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses
- Use of the vehicle for any unlawful activities is prohibited. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or other unsafe practices. Transporting hazardous materials or substances is not allowed. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is prohibited. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. The vehicle must not be used for purposes it was not designed for, nor should passenger or weight limits be exceeded. Operating the vehicle outside the specified geographical boundaries without prior approval is also not permitted.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
Liability Restrictions
To the fullest extent allowed under English and Welsh law, Car Hire in Bilston is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business that may arise from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the rental amount paid in the previous 12 months. This limitation does not apply to cases of death or personal injury due to negligence or fraud.
