Welcome to Putney Car Hire Services. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental offerings. By utilizing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Putney are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement that you will receive upon booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This document outlines essential terms, conditions, insurance provisions, charges, and your responsibilities during the rental period. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the latter will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a vehicle in Putney requires:
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Putney, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may apply based on vehicle type, with potential additional fees for drivers under 25. A valid full 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, alongside any other conditions outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be made via our website, by telephone, or directly at our Putney office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required upon vehicle pickup. All pricing is in British Pounds (£) and includes VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- Upon collecting your vehicle, it is imperative to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be created and signed at this time. You are expected to return the vehicle in the same condition as it was collected, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged as necessary. Please return the vehicle with the same fuel level as at the start of your rental; refueling charges will apply if it is returned with less fuel. Late returns may incur extra fees, so please contact us promptly if you foresee a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during the rental period, along with an administration fee.
5. Coverage and Responsibility
- All rental agreements include basic third-party insurance. For specific coverage details and excess amounts, please refer to your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to lower your financial exposure. You are responsible for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess, except when additional coverage is purchased. Negligence or misuse will result in full responsibility for any resultant damage, irrespective of insurance.
6. Cancellations and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice period provided. For precise details, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional charges.
Prohibited Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses
- The vehicle may not be used for any illegal activities or purposes. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or engaging in other hazardous behaviors. It is prohibited to transport dangerous materials, sublet the vehicle, or allow unauthorized drivers. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. Additionally, the vehicle should not be used for purposes it was not designed for, nor should passenger or weight limits be exceeded. Driving outside the agreed geographical limits requires prior authorization.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Putney will not be responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, due to your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the amount you paid for the rental in the past 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence or fraud.
9. Applicable Law
