Middlewich Car Hire Terms

Welcome to Car Hire Middlewich. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental offerings. By accessing our services, you agree to these terms.

Rental Terms

All vehicle rentals come with a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This document outlines specific terms, conditions, insurance information, charges, and your responsibilities related to the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.

Eligibility Criteria

Renting a vehicle in Middlewich:

• To hire a vehicle in Middlewich, drivers must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on vehicle type, with extra charges applicable for those under 25. A valid full driving licence, meeting the minimum duration specified in the Rental Agreement, is required. Drivers must also present valid identification and proof of current address, along with payment information and a security deposit. Any additional requirements outlined in the Rental Agreement must be met.

Booking and Payment Process

• Reservations can be made via our website, over the phone, or directly at our Middlewich office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. The remaining balance and a security deposit are usually required at the time of vehicle pickup. All prices are quoted in British Pounds (£) and include applicable VAT. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed safely through trusted payment providers.

4. 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. Upon return, the vehicle should be in the same condition as when it was collected, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and fees may apply. Please return the vehicle with the same fuel level as received; refueling charges will be incurred for vehicles returned with lower fuel levels. Late returns may lead to additional fees, so communicate with us promptly if you anticipate a delay. You will also be liable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges accrued during your rental period, along with an administrative fee.

Insurance and Liability Policies

• All rentals in Middlewich come with basic third-party insurance included. You can find comprehensive coverage details and excess amounts in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to minimize your financial liability, so reviewing them is advisable. You will be responsible 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.

Cancellation and Modifications

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. Charges may apply for late cancellations or no-shows.

7. Restricted Activities

Prohibited uses of the rental vehicle:

• The vehicle must not be used for any illegal activities. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or any dangerous driving practices. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting the vehicle or permitting unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. The vehicle should not be used for purposes it was not intended for, and exceeding passenger or weight limits is unacceptable. Driving outside of the agreed geographical boundaries requires prior authorization.

Breach of these terms may lead to rental termination and extra fees.

8. Liability Restrictions

To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Middlewich will not be responsible for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, nor for any loss of profits, data, or business related to your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the rental amount paid in the last 12 months. This limitation does not apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence or fraud.

9. Local Legal Framework

These Terms are regulated under English and Welsh law. Disputes will be resolved exclusively by the courts of England and Wales.

10. Updates to Terms

We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Changes take effect as soon as they are posted on our website. Continued use of our services indicates your acceptance of the revised Terms.
