Welcome to Car Hire Rutherglen. These Terms of Service outline the guidelines for using our website and vehicle rental services. Your use of our services signifies your agreement 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 collection. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance coverage, 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
Rental Requirements in Rutherglen
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Rutherglen, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may vary based on the vehicle type, with extra fees applicable for drivers under 25. A valid driving licence suitable for the vehicle category is required, along with identification that confirms your current address. You will also need to present valid payment information and a security deposit, in addition to fulfilling any other conditions outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Details
- Reservations can be completed via our website, by phone, or directly at our Rutherglen 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 VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment systems.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of collection, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be generated and must be signed. Please return the vehicle in the same condition as it was collected, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged appropriately. Ensure the vehicle is returned with the same fuel level as at collection; otherwise, refueling fees will apply. Late returns may result in additional charges, so please notify us as soon as possible if you anticipate being late. You are responsible 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 basic third-party insurance included. Detailed information about coverage and excess amounts can be found in the Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be offered to lower your financial responsibility. It is advisable to review these options thoroughly. You remain liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount unless further insured. Any damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, irrespective of insurance coverage.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice provided. Please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement for precise information. Late cancellations or failure to show up may incur additional fees.
Prohibited Activities
Prohibited Uses of Rental Vehicle
- Vehicles must not be used for any illegal activities. This includes racing, rallying, off-roading, or other risky behaviors. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting vehicles or permitting unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly forbidden. Vehicle usage must align with its intended purpose, and passenger or weight limits must be adhered to. Traveling beyond the agreed geographical boundaries requires prior authorization.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and extra fees.
